Summary

Hypoglycemia-associated autonomic failure (HAAF), a condition commonly developed in diabetic patients, which causes them to have severely low blood sugar levels. This condition makes clinical management of blood sugar in diabetic patients very challenging. This research seeks to better understand how diabetic patients develop HAAF, and what can be done to prevent it.
