two kinds of management devices: glucose meters and other diabetes
management tests. Glucose meters help people with diabetes check
their blood sugar at home, school, work, and play. Other blood
and urine tests reveal trends in diabetes management and help
identify diabetes complications.

American Diabetes Association
Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly
use insulin. Insulin is a hormone that is needed to convert sugar,
starches and other food into energy needed for daily life. The
cause of diabetes continues to be a mystery, although both genetics
and environmental factors such as obesity and lack of exercise
appear to play roles.
