Background: Severe hypoglycemia (SH) poses a significant challenge in the management of type 1 diabetes (T1D); however, the factors that offer protection other than diabetes technologies are under-studied. The primary objective of this study was to examine the association between hypoglycemia problem-solving (HPS) abilities and severe hypoglycemic events in adults with T1D using Poisson regression analysis.
Methods: In this cross-sectional study, 287 adults with T1D (mean age: 50.
Background: Hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes (T1D) is associated with mortality and morbidity, especially when awareness of hypoglycemia is impaired. This study aimed to investigate the protective and risk factors for impaired awareness of hypoglycemia (IAH) in adults with T1D.
Methods: This cross-sectional study enrolled 288 adults with T1D (mean age, 50.
