However, this dynamic dosing can inadvertently lead to incorrect levels of insulin being administered, resulting in inordinately low glucose levels (hypoglycaemia), which can be life-threatening.73,74 Alternatively, not injecting enough insulin could also have long-term implications if blood glucose levels remain too high (hyperglycaemia), such as peripheral neuropathy, cancer, or cardiovascular diseases.75–77. Here, INS is linked to cancer.
