Summary

Hypoglycemia or low blood sugar is a very serious complication that diabetics experience. This is of great concern because there is a lack of available information of how Non Insulin Dependent Diabetic Mellitus patients (NIDDM) defend themselves against a low blood sugar. This is particularly disturbing since NIDDM patients are likely to require intensive treatment, and as a result, the risks of severe hypoglycemia to the NIDDM patient increase. The current proposal aims to provide information on how NIDDM patients can defend themselves against hypoglycemia, thus decreasing their risks for this severe complication.
