An international symposium on neonatal hypoglycemia: thirty years later. Does it injure the neonatal brain?
A discussion of neonatal hypoglycemia was held on 18 November 1995 as a satellite symposium of the 40th Annual Meeting of Japan Society for Premature and Newborn Medicine and continued in closed session of 19 November to address neonatal hypoglycemia in the 21st century. This represented a 30-year follow-up of a discussion of carbohydrate and energy metabolism in the newborn held in Tokyo on 10 November 1965. This follow-up was prompted by the incredible advances in clinical care in perinatal medicine and in basic knowledge in the neurosciences, neonatal physiology and metabolism that have occurred in Japan and around the world throughout these 3 decades.
