English term or phrase: fluctuate widely Het lijkt zo simpel soms... "BG levels fluctuate widely in Type 1 diabetic patients" ... maar fluctueren ze nu "sterk" of "vaak"?	Titia Meesters KudoZ activity Questions: 112 (none open) (5 closed without grading) Answers: 172 Local time: 20:41

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer) agree  Harry Borsje: uiteraard ben ik het eens met je antwoord, al denk ik dat taalkundig gezien 'vaak fluctueren' ook mogelijk is - alleen hier niet als vertaling van 'widely' 3 mins agree  Tina Vonhof (X) 2 hrs agree  Joost Elshoff (X): het gaat hier om de mate waarin die niveaus fluctueren, niet hoe vaak... ik lees hier in dat het inderdaad "sterk fluctueren" betekent 12 days

fluctueren sterk Explanation: vertonen grote fluctuaties... Het kan best zijn dat deze fluctuaties vaak optreden, afhankelijk van eetgedrag, enz., maar het gaat hier toch vooral over de omvang van de fluctuaties doordat het lichaam (of de medicatie) niet in staat is dit (voldoende afgestemd) te compenseren. b.v.: Intermittent measurements of capillary blood glucose give a limited glimpse of blood glucose levels, which may fluctuate widely over 24 hours.     Reference: http://www.mja.com.au/public/issues/179_08_201003/cou10327_f...

Notes to answerer Asker: Bedankt Harry, in de (grotere) context had zowel "vaak" (per dag) als "sterk" (grote fluctuaties" gepast, en ik vond "wide" een wat vreemde term voor "sterk", maar ik neem jullie antwoord graag over. Ik moest kiezen tussen twee gelijke antwoorden en heb Toiny gekozen, sorry...
