Current Status and Prospect of Diabetes Diagnosis and Treatment Based on Biosensing Technology

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus has increasingly become a threat to health all over the world. This review focuses on the promoting effect of biosensing technology on the diagnosis and treatment of diabetes mellitus. Types of diabetes and their corresponding pathogeneses are first introduced, followed by the diabetes prevalence and research progress at home and abroad. To emphasize the importance of diabetes diagnosis and treatment, we secondly summarize the breakthrough technology in this field based on biosensing technology at the present stage. In terms of diagnosis, diversified ways of blood glucose detection and multiple combinations of diabetes biomarkers are discussed, while a variety of insulin administration routes and non-drug treatment means are presented in the aspect of treatment. In conclusion, the prospect of the future development of diabetes diagnosis and treatment is put forward at the end of the review.
