Abstract
AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Acute hypoglycaemia in humans causes general impairment of cognitive function, but information about its effects on more specific cognitive processes is limited. METHODS: Basic aspects of auditory function were studied in 15 adults with uncomplicated Type I (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. Two separate hyperinsulinaemic glucose clamp procedures were done on different study days, in a counterbalanced fashion, either maintaining euglycaemia (blood glucose 5.0 mmol x l(-1)) or inducing hypoglycaemia (blood glucose 2.6 mmol x l(-1)). During each study, the subjects performed a battery of auditory and cognitive function tasks. RESULTS: Hypoglycaemia caused deterioration in mental efficiency as assessed by Digit Symbol (p
