Brief summary: The potency of insulin decreases with increasing temperatures. This pilot study compared the concentration and structure of commonly used types of insulin when exposed to high temperatures for prolonged periods of time.Manufacturers are required to provide information on how insulin vials and cartridges should be kept by the patient. These recommendations assume that a working fridge is available and that the medicine can be protected from...

Hence, misdiagnosis and unnecessary insulin treatment are still common.This study reports the discriminatory clinical features at diabetes onset in Swedish pediatric patients (age 118 y...
