Hypoglycemic Events May Trigger Acute Ischemic Stroke Within 30 Days in Those With Diabetes: A Case-Crossover Study

We found that hypoglycemic events in patients with diabetes are associated with a more than 3-fold greater risk of AIS in the first day but can trigger AIS in the 30 days following the event. More research is needed to assess the link between the severity of hypoglycemia and stroke occurrence, as well as the severity of the stroke. These results, if confirmed in other studies, emphasize the importance of avoiding hypoglycemic events in patients with diabetes.
