INTRODUCTION Hypoglycaemia is the major barrier for glycaemic target achievement in patients treated with insulin. The aim of the present study was to investigate real-world incidence and predictors of hypoglycaemia in insulin-treated patients. METHODS More than 300 consecutive patients with type 1 or type 2 diabetes treated with insulin were enrolled during regular out-patient visits from 36...
Hypoglycaemia is a common, potentially fatal, yet preventable problem. The aetiology of hypoglycaemia is variable, but druginduced hypoglycaemia remains the commonest cause. Determining the aetiology of hypoglycaemia poses little difficulty in patients known to be taking oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHAs). However, it becomes a challenge in those without a history of such exposure. The Hospital A...
Background: Hypoglycaemia mostly occurs in diabetics on medications.The lack of awareness on hypoglycaemic symptoms among patients may delay its identification and treatment. Aims & objective: (i) Study on awareness of symptoms of hypoglycaemia among patients with diabetes. (ii) Study the knowledge in early management of hypoglycaemia among patients with diabetes. Materials & methods: This is a...
Aim The study aimed to explore the association between diabetes-related distress as a dependent variable and fear of hypoglycaemia independent in Chinese individuals with type 2 diabetes, which can provide basis for development effective nursing interventions. Design A cross-sectional descriptive study. Methods Pre-piloted scales were used determine whether they experienced this impacted upon t...
The aim of this study was to describe hormonal, cardiovascular and thermoregulatory responses to insulin-induced hypoglycaemia of differing levels of severity. Five normal male volunteers were rendered hypoglycaemic at intervals of 1 week by intravenous infusions of 3, 4 or 6 units of insulin/h, or by intravenous injection of 0.15 unit/kg body weight. Plasma glucose reached nadir values of 2.08...
Blood glucose measurements were made at 2200, 0200, and 0800h in 102 children with diabetes during a 24 hour planned admission to hospital. Nocturnal hypoglycaemia (<3 0 mmolI1) occurred in 24 of 71 (34%) children on twice daily insulin and in three of 31 (10%) children on once daily insulin. Predictive value modelling showed that a blood glucose concentration of less than 7 mmol/l at 2200h was...
UNLABELLED This paper details the case of a 77-year-old male with refractory hypoglycaemia due to inoperable metastatic pancreatic neuroendocrine tumour (pNET) co-secreting insulin and gastrin. Multiple medical therapies were trialled with limited success, and we describe the complications experienced by our patient. Somatostatin analogues can ameliorate hypoglycaemia and may have tumour-stabil...
We report a case of prolonged loss of consciousness due to hypoglycaemia following ethanol abuse in a non-diabetic. The patient also reported symptoms compatible with hypoglycaemia following heavy manual work. Further investigations revealed a pancreatic insulinoma, which was successfully removed surgically. The patient remains asymptomatic 18 months later, despite occasional episodes of ethano...
BACKGROUND Hypoglycaemia is a well recognized complication of falciparum malaria in children but its diagnosis may be overlooked because all the clinical features may be mimicked by severe malaria. To determine the prevalence of hypoglycaemia at the point of hospital admission of under-fives with falciparum malaria and identify its risk factors in patients seen in a Nigerian secondary-health-ca...
OBJECTIVES To investigate potential determinants of severe hypoglycaemia, including baseline characteristics, in the Action to Control Cardiovascular Risk in Diabetes (ACCORD) trial and the association of severe hypoglycaemia with levels of glycated haemoglobin (haemoglobin A(1C)) achieved during therapy. DESIGN Post hoc epidemiological analysis of a double 2x2 factorial, randomised, controll...
