Mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE) is the parameter for assessing glycemic variability and is calculated based on the arithmetic mean of differences between consecutive peaks and nadirs of differences greater than one standard deviation (SD) of mean glucose values. It is designated to assess major glucose swings and exclude minor ones.
