Accumulation of severe hypoglycemia at weekends and in warm seasons in patients with type 1 diabetes but not with type 2 diabetes

For the risk of SH, time factors appear to contribute more substantially in individuals with T1DM than in patients with T2DM. The enhanced frequency of SH in patients with T1DM at weekends and in warm seasons was probably caused by short-term changes in behavior. Intensification of diabetes care and education with better adjustment of insulin doses in these susceptible periods could be an appropriate approach to prevent SH.
