The guideline committee has made the following recommendations for research.
1 Clinical features for distinguishing between type 1 diabetes and other types of diabetes
What are the best clinical features or combination of features for distinguishing between type 1 diabetes and other types of diabetes? [2022]
For a short explanation of why the committee made the recommendation for research, see the rationale section on diagnosis.
Full details of the evidence and the committee's discussion are in evidence review C: diagnosis of diabetes.
2 The use of C-peptide in diagnosing diabetes
What is the effectiveness of C‑peptide at correcting misclassification of diabetes diagnosis and what is the optimal timing for the test in distinguishing subtypes of diabetes? [2022]
For a short explanation of why the committee made the recommendation for research, see the rationale section on diagnosis.

3 Use of routinely collected real-world data to examine the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of continuous glucose monitoring
Based on routinely collected real-world data, what is the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) devices to improve glycaemic control? [2022]
For a short explanation of why the committee made the recommendation for research, see the rationale section on CGM.
