Core Tip We conducted a prospective study using twenty days of continuous glucose monitoring to better understand glycemic instability in insulin-treated type 2 diabetes patients undergoing hemodialysis. Our results show that low visceral fat area is a strong and independent determinant of larger fluctuations in time-in-range between dialysis and non-dialysis days. Patients with low visceral adiposity had higher mean glucose, lower time-in-range, and more pronounced post-dialysis hyperglycemia. Visceral fat was the only variable that remained significant after multivariate adjustment. These findings suggest that visceral adiposity may act as a metabolic buffer, and that patients with low visceral fat area represent a fragile phenotype who may benefit from closer monitoring and more personalized diabetes management in the hemodialysis.
