May warrant autonomic neuropathy screening in hypoglycemia-prone diabetes; leaves open whether reversal improves counterregulation.
Diabetic autonomic neuropathy contributes to hypoglycemia unawareness and defective glucose counterregulation, increasing the risk of severe hypoglycemia in insulin-dependent diabetes.
