Article Synopsis
  • A study was conducted on critically ill patients to assess the long-term effects of hypoglycemia caused by tight glycemic control (TGC) on neurocognitive function.
  • Among 4,635 patients in the surgical ICU, 37 experienced hypoglycemia and were matched with controls for comparison; both groups displayed cognitive dysfunction post-ICU.
  • While hypoglycemia slightly worsened visuospatial skills, it was also found that hyperglycemia and blood glucose fluctuations negatively affected cognitive performance, indicating a complex relationship between blood sugar levels and cognitive outcomes.
