Comparisons between participants with IAH and NAH (n = 225). All values are shown as n (%). Comparisons between groups were performed using χ2 test, with Yates’ correction or Fisher’s exact test. Abbreviations: IAH, impaired awareness of hypoglycemia; NAH, normal awareness of hypoglycemia; SH, severe hypoglycemia. Results in bold values are considered as statistically significant.
