# Nightscout reports Access reports from the drawer menu,
## View profiles Profiles view gives important information on the patient therapy parameters. Select profiles then SHOW (no additional setup is necessary). Patients profile(s) will display. DIA is the duration of the [insulin action](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4454113/). Carbs absorption rate is [complex](https://diyps.org/2014/05/29/determining-your-carbohydrate-absorption-rate-diyps-lessons-learned/) to calculate for patients and can be undefined (or zero) if the DIY system doesn't update the value (when existing). Insulin to Carbs ratio (IC) and Insulin Sensitivity Factor (ISF) can be defined by time periods. Only one visible value means whole day. Basal rates should match the pump settings.
## Select a report Select the report type: - `Day to day` - `Week to week` - `Daily Stats` - `Distribution` - `Hourly stats` - `Percentile Chart` - `Weekly Distribution`
## Setup the report Select the period used to analyze data. Enable the check box and either select `From:` and `To: `dates to define the interval or: - `Today` - `Last 2 days` - `Last 3 days`, - `Last week` - `Last 2 weeks` - `Last Month` - `Last 3 months` Avoid selecting too long periods of time for daily reports.
Unless looking for specific `Notes` or `Event type` leave the checkboxes disabled.
You can select which week days to use.
Confirm `Target BT range` `bottom` and `top` for TIR (or TITR) and graph range lines. You can sort the report from older to newer or newer first.
Click `SHOW` and wait for data to load and rendering to complete. This might take some time if the period is long (this will also depend on the Nightscout host engine).
## Day To day This report will show BG, day by day, including selected treatments. Enable insulin, carbs and basal rate to have consistent insulin distribution information.
When changing selections, click again `SHOW` to update the view.
## Week to Week This report will give a week by week spaghetti view, with color code for week days selected.
## Daily stats This report will give a daily distribution view.
## Distribution This report will give a complete distribution view. You also can filter by hours (scroll to the bottom of the page). You can quickly find %TIR, %TUR, %TAR and the rough estimated HbA1c values. Range must be modified to see %TITR.
## Percentile Chart This report will give a percentile distribution view.
## Hourly stats This report will give an hourly distribution view with a box plot showing 25% and 75% percentile plus mean and standard deviation, then additional hour by hour statistics in a table.
## Weekly Distribution This report will give a weekly view.
