Abstract | Development of updated guidelines for management of diabetes in Ramadan Fasting is of paramount importance. Nonetheless, evidence-based guidelines in the field of Ramadan Fasting and Diabetes are scarce. Moreover, findings of some recent research such as effects of Ramadan fasting on microbiota, genetics and epigenetics, hormonal changes (such as adiponectin, leptin, testosterone…), and alternations in circadian rhythm should also be reviewed and included on a yearly basis. It is documented that self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG) is of vital importance for patients with type 1 diabetes who fast, and advantages of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) or flash glucose monitoring (FGM) techniques should be highlighted. Moreover, the recent findings about applications of advanced insulin delivery technology in patients with diabetes who fast in Ramadan should also considered in the annual updates of the guidelines. |
