background : diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease with a worldwide prevalence and its complications can be prevented with close monitoring of blood glucose. quality of blood glucose monitoring utilizing glucometers in iranian hospitalized patients has not been well published in the literature. we evaluated the accuracy and consistency of the results of two devices compared with the standard l...

background and objective: the reliability and validity of monitors for self-monitoring of blood glucose are debated. we evaluated the analytical performance of accu-check active (boehringer mannheim, roche) which is one of the most commonly used monitors in iran. material and methods: we compared the monitor readings with the reference values by percentage of values within certain intervals of...

conclusions we have demonstrated that ibgms, while not reaching statistical significance, may be associated with slightly reduced a1c and cost due to visiting physicians. results there is a trend of lowered total cost in the intervention group compared to the control group. the control group spent $210.89 per year on visits to physicians; the intervention group spent $131.26 (p = 0.128). patien...

background: people who use home blood glucose monitors may use their mobile phones in the close vicinity of medical devices. this study is aimed at investigating the effect of the signal strength of 900 mhz gsm mobile phones on the accuracy of home blood glucose monitors. methods: sixty non-diabetic volunteer individuals aged 21 - 28 years participated in this study. blood samples were analyzed...

This paper presents the preparation of in situ electrodeposited rGO/MnO2 nanocomposite as a binder-free electrode for supercapacitor application. The work describes and evaluates the performance of prepared electrode via green and facile electrodeposition technique of in situ rGO/MnO2-glucose carbon nanocomposites. The carbon content in the composite electrode increased after GO and D (+) gluco...
