The daily glucose concentration (GC) profile based on continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) in diabetic end-stage renal disease (ESRD) patients. a Daily CG profile of each ESRD patient with diabetes before peritoneal dialysis (PD) initiation (n = 6). Before initiation of PD, CGM was performed for 17 days (total number of days for all patients) in six patients with diabetic ESRD. b Daily CG profile of each ESRD patient with diabetes after PD initiation (n = 6). After initiation of PD, CGM was performed for 10 days in the same six patients with diabetic ESRD. The x-axis represents the time at which GC was measured. The y-axis represents GC level. Each line corresponds to the result of one subject. The GC range between 70 and 140 mg/dL is shadowed in blue in the graph. The daytime period, which ranges from 8:00 to 20:00, is indicated by a box on the x-axis
