  • Any concomitant glucose-lowering drug (i. e. insulin, sulfonyl urea)
  • Any uncontrolled significant medical, psychiatric or surgical condition (active infection, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, poorly controlled hypertension, uncontrolled congestive heart disease, etc.) or laboratory findings that might jeopardize the patient's safety or that would limit compliance with the objectives and assessments of the study.

  • Any known intolerance to standardized meal (Maizena)

Who the study is looking for

  • Informed Consent as documented by signature
  • Biochemically proven endogenous hyperinsulinemic hypoglycemia: neuroglycopenic symptoms in the fasting state with low plasma glucose, inappropriately high serum insulin and C-peptide concentrations (standardized 72h fasting test).).
    • Participants as control subjects fulfilling all of the following inclusion criteria are eligible for the study:
  • Informed Consent as documented by signature (Appendix Informed Consent Form)
