HYPOGLYCEMIA

This study tested whether a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) combined with a diabetes management platform (DMP) can help older adults (65+) with type 1 diabetes reduce low blood sugar episodes. The DMP automatically sends glucose and insulin data to a system that gives dose adjus…

This study tested whether taking high doses of omega-3 fatty acids (fish oil) and vitamin D together is safe and might help people with type 1 diabetes keep making some of their own insulin. It included 27 people aged 6 to 65, both newly diagnosed and those living with diabetes f…

This study tested whether an artificial pancreas system with exercise recognition could prevent low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) during and after moderate exercise in adults with type 1 diabetes. Fifteen participants used two different versions of the system over several months. Th…

This study tested whether using a continuous glucose monitor in real time could reduce how long very low birth weight newborns experience low blood sugar. Forty-eight babies were randomly assigned to either real-time monitoring or standard finger-prick testing during their first …

This study looked at whether measuring glucagon (a hormone that raises blood sugar) after a meal or an injection could help predict the risk of dangerously low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in people with type 1 diabetes. Researchers studied 62 adults with type 1 diabetes to see if …

This study looked at how low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) affects the body's ability to control heart rate in 14 adults with well-controlled type 2 diabetes. Researchers measured changes in baroreflex sensitivity—a key heart rate regulation mechanism—before and after a controlled l…

This early-phase study looked at how the nervous system helps control blood sugar in people with type 1 diabetes who received islet cell transplants. Nine participants received drugs that block certain nerve signals to see how their transplanted cells responded to low blood sugar…

This study looked at whether continuous glucose monitors (CGMS) can help predict low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) in adults with type 2 diabetes. 41 participants wore either a regular or a hidden monitor for a short time while continuing their usual care. The goal was to find new w…

This study looked at how having low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) affects the body's automatic nervous system, which controls things like heart rate and blood pressure. Researchers tested 28 healthy adults to see if a drug called spironolactone could block these effects. The goal wa…

This study aimed to find out how often low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) happens in older adults (over 64) with diabetes who live in long-term care facilities. Researchers used a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) worn for 10 days to track blood sugar levels in 86 participants. The go…

This study looked at 24 people with long-standing type 1 diabetes to see if using an automated insulin delivery system plus a low-carbohydrate diet for 8 months could restore their body's ability to release glucagon during low blood sugar (hypoglycemia). Glucagon is a hormone tha…

This pilot study tested whether a new program to prevent low blood sugar (hypoglycemia) is practical and well-liked by patients, doctors, and clinic staff. It involved 35 adults with diabetes who take medications that can cause low blood sugar. The goal was to gather feedback and…

This study looked at how blood sugar levels change in hospitalized infants with intestinal failure when their intravenous nutrition is given in cycles instead of continuously. Nine babies wore a small sensor on their thigh that measured sugar levels every 5 minutes for up to 30 d…

This study looked at whether continuous glucose monitors (CGMs) can accurately track blood sugar levels in newborns during their first three days of life. Researchers enrolled 25 babies who were large for their age or whose mothers had diabetes. The goal was to see if CGM reading…

This study looked at how a mild low blood sugar stress affects the brain and the body's automatic functions like heart rate and breathing. Researchers used brain scans to see changes in brain connections in 74 healthy adults. The goal was to understand how non-psychological stres…
