Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: We retrospectively analyzed 504 hospitalized terminal cancer patients with diabetes mellitus who underwent glucose monitoring >3 times per day during a 6-year period from 2009 to 2015. We evaluated survival rate after admission within 90 days after admission.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with long durations of hospital stay (>90 days) and those who underwent very few sessions of glucose monitoring (<6 times in total) were excluded.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
We extracted data regarding prognostic factors of cancer on day 1 of hospital stay, change in prognostic factors of cancer, glycemic variability (GV; coefficient of variation [CV] and standard deviation [SD]), and mean glucose concentrations during the entire hospital stay. We analyzed the association of mortality and survival rate with these factors.	—
