Our readers have helped us with their attention and interest, they have given our editors and publishers energy and perseverance. We thank them for this all. Hypoglycaemia is extremely low blood glucose. It is dangerous because the brain only utilises glucose for energy and there is not enough energy for the brain to operate correctly.

DOI: glucose normal range The aims of this study were to establish a model of long-term diabetes with sustained medium scale hyperglycemia glucose normal range characterize the pathological changes detectable after 4months, with particular respect to dependence on the degree of hyperglycemia.

Methods: Streptozotocin-induced diabetic CFY rats were subjected to four different insulin substitution protocols to achieve different levels of glycemic control Diabetic groups.

Eyes were investigated by ophthalmoscopy, kidney function by urine analysis, and neuropathy by functional tests. Retinal and renal morphological evaluations were performed by histology, immuno-histochemistry and electron microscopy. Discussion: We established a treatment protocol in rats enabling complex investigation of diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy and neuropathy on a long-term period.

Clearly hyperglycemic dependent parameters of these complications serve as good outcome measures for preclinical trials. Our results provide a useful basis for designing studies for testing preventative treatments as well as other translational medical research in this field.
