A documented research resource

CGM
Multimodal Resource

Glucose records.
Everyday context.

Continuous glucose monitoring, daily video diaries, and postvisit interviews from three studies at the University of Southern California. Explore what is available, how records connect, and what they can support.

These counts describe different data layers. Wave-specific identifiers are not established as distinct people across studies; observed availability is not recruitment completion or recording adherence.

01 / DATASET

Three study waves.
Complementary perspectives.

The resource connects sensor records with participants’ accounts of CGM use, food, activities, and everyday experiences. Study designs and represented cohorts differ.

Daily keys use calendar dates in G1 and filename study-day labels in G2/G3. Protocol schedules describe intended collection, not verified wear time. Clinical tables, media, and registry enrollment have separate denominators.

01

Measure glucose

Repeated CGM observations provide a sensor record. All glucose values are expressed in mg/dL.

02

Record daily context

Smartphone diaries capture accounts prompted by CGM feedback and study questions.

03

Reflect after the visit

Semistructured interviews document experiences with monitoring and everyday activities.

02 / ANALYSIS EXAMPLES

What changes when
we define an analysis?

Descriptive demonstrations make selection and processing choices visible. These results characterize available records; they do not establish clinical prediction or cross-modal associations.

G2 + G3 DIARIES

Stable identifier counts.
Fewer eligible dates.

Daily CGM quality criteria retained 327 of 369 complete paired diary dates while retaining all 50 represented wave-specific identifiers.

369Paired dates
327CGM-eligible dates

Primary rule: at least 231 unique valid readings and a maximum gap of 60 minutes, including day boundaries. These are analyst-defined rules.

Open selection figure
G2 dates decrease from 223 observed media keys to 201 reference days, 199 complete paired days, and 177 CGM-eligible days. G3 decreases from 208 keys to 170 reference and paired days, then 150 eligible days.
Selection is measured at both the identifier and observation-date levels.
50IDs retained under the primary CGM rule

Allowing a maximum gap of 30, 60, or 120 minutes retains 320, 327, or 334 dates. Each rule keeps the same 50 IDs. A stable identifier denominator can conceal changing observation support.

Six panels show the distributions of within-identifier across-day IQRs for daily mean glucose, glucose SD, glucose CV, recording pitch median, pitch range, and mean HNR. The same eligible dates are used across panels, with 26 G2 and 22 G3 identifiers contributing at least two dates.
Each point summarizes one wave-specific identifier; these are descriptive distributions, not association estimates.
WITHIN-IDENTIFIER VARIATION

Shared dates.
Different measurements.

CGM and acoustic summaries can be described on the same eligible dates. Across-day IQRs require at least two dates, leaving 48 identifiers in this display.

Interpretation boundaries

Language provenance. Original-versus-translated status remains undocumented for 361 of 371 candidate text days.

Time alignment. Shared calendar dates do not establish synchronized clocks or event-level correspondence.

Measurement validity. Finite acoustic features and accepted face detections do not establish validated psychological, clinical, or facial measurements.
