Does age affect the sympathoadrenal response to hypoglycemia in youth with well-controlled type 1 diabetes?
Does age affect the sympathoadrenal response to hypoglycemia in youth with well-controlled type 1 diabetes?
Young children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes are prone to develop hypoglycemia-associated autonomic failure, characterized by blunted epinephrine responses and reduced symptom awareness.
