> Commercial CGM devices have certain drawbacks in diabetic measurement during daily activities such as food intake, sleeping, exercise and driving. The drawbacks are continuous radiations from devices
So they think a drawback of CGM is the (Bluetooth) radiation, and their alternative is to zap the pancreas with, um, magic dielectric radiation? Or magic radiation that results in “dielectric” backscatter?
I do find myself wondering whether a watch- or patch-sized object could get a usable NMR signal from glucose. Maybe a neodymium magnet and a very carefully shaped probe antenna to compensate for the horribly nonuniform magnetic field? Maybe an AC field with no permanent magnet at all? I found a reference suggesting that measuring glucose in blood outside the body by 1T NMR is doable but marginal, so this may be a lost cause.

The OP paper is a bit lacking in any actual details of how glucose is being detected…
