In 2001, Haymond and Schreiner published a manuscript evaluating MDG as a strategy for addressing mild or impending hypoglycemia in children with T1D and gastroenteritis and/or poor oral intake.8 Mini-dose glucagon was administered by parents at home to 28 children with impending or mild hypoglycemia when blood glucose was <4.44 mmol/L (<80 mg/dL) by home meter. The gene discussed is GCG; the disease is type 1 diabetes mellitus.
