1. Continuous glucose monitoring tracings of two patients with type 1 diabetes (one patient per panel) on a day when aerobic exercise was performed (open circles) versus a day when no exercise was performed (closed circles).
Continuous glucose monitoring tracings of two patients with type 1 diabetes (one patient per panel) on a day when aerobic exercise was performed (open circles) versus a day when no exercise was performed (closed circles). The gray box represents the timing of 45 minutes of treadmill running at 60% of peak fitness on the aerobic exercise day. Participant adjustments in insulin dosage before and after exercise resulted in substantially higher blood glucose levels over a 5-hour period. Reprinted with permission from Ref. 6.
