Article Abstract
Background: The escalating prevalence of diabetes, with its multifaceted complications, poses a pressing challenge for healthcare systems globally. In response, the advent of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems, offering technological solutions for daily diabetes management, presents significant opportunities. However, the widespread adoption faces several barriers, linked both to the technological configuration of the devices and to the psychological dimension of patients. Therefore, this study aims to apply and test a theoretical model that investigates the antecedents of the intention to use Continuous Glucose Monitoring systems.
Methods: The research model was built to unveil the impacts of psychological factors, functional components and rational constructs derived from the Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) on CGM systems sustained adoption. To ensure the comparability of results, we have collected data from people who had used Dexcom ONE Dexcom (San Diego, CA) for the first time for at least one month. Employing Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) techniques, the hypothesized relationships among constructs were assessed.
Results: The analyses confirmed the positive correlation of rational factors to the Intention to Use. Subjective Norm, intended as the physicians' influence, is positively correlated with the Perceived Usefulness. Trend Arrows, albeit being negatively correlated with Perceived Usefulness, have a positive correlation on Perceived Ease Of Use, reinforcing its mediating effect towards Perceived Usefulness. Among psychological factors, Trust in the CGM technology positively correlates with Intention to Use. Health Literacy is negatively correlated to the Intention to Use.
Conclusions: These findings contribute to theoretical and managerial understanding, providing recommendations to enhance the adoption of CGM systems like Dexcom ONE.

Background: Despite advances, glycemic control in people with type 2 diabetes (PwT2D) treated with oral antidiabetic medications (ADMs) often remains suboptimal. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) has shown promise in diabetes management, offering real-time insights into glucose trends. This study evaluates the impact of transitioning from conventional self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) to CGM on glycemic outcomes and self-management in PwT2D receiving oral ADMs.

Diabetes is a metabolic disorder of increasing global concern. Characterized by constantly elevated levels of glucose, severe β-cell dysfunction, and insulin resistance, it is the cause of a major burden on patients if not managed with therapeutic and lifestyle changes. The human body is slowly developing tolerance to many marketed antidiabetic drugs and the quest for the discovery of newer molecules continues.

Glucose sensors are critical analytical devices designed for precise and continuous monitoring of glucose concentrations, playing a pivotal role in healthcare, particularly in diabetes management. Here, we synthesis glucose oxidase (GOx)/Se hydrogel to detect the glucose, thereby generating measurable electrical signals. Further, the transfection of electronic signals rely on the poly(dopamine) (PDA) grid in hydrogel.
