Excerpt

To the Editor:Using a continuous glucose monitoring system (CGMS), Hoi-Hansen and coworkers [1] recently rejected the existence of the Somogyi phenomenon, having analysed valid glucose data obtained in a large group of type 1 diabetic patients, representing 594 nights. We believe this is an important paper since, in our experience, health care professionals frequently believe that the Somogyi phenomenon exists. Because it remains an important issue, we investigated this concept further. …

Keynote webinar | Spotlight on medication adherence

Live: Thursday 27th June 2024, 18:00-19:30 (CEST)

WHO estimates that half of all patients worldwide are non-adherent to their prescribed medication. The consequences of poor adherence can be catastrophic, on both the individual and population level.

Join our expert panel to discover why you need to understand the drivers of non-adherence in your patients, and how you can optimize medication adherence in your clinics to drastically improve patient outcomes.
