Baseline severe hypoglycemia events reported at initial DCCT-visit for the previous year.
DCCT-rates are based on a follow-up time which represents the time from randomization until last DCCT-visit or HbA1C-closeout visit collection date (whatever date was later). EDIC-rates or events are based on EDIC-follow-up days which mirror: [(days of 3 months) × (number of annual visits)], since hypoglycemia events were only recorded for the 3 months prior to the annual EDIC-visits. The events were confirmed by additional documentation. The mean event rate was calculated according to the following formula: Mean event rate per 10 patient-years = 10 × 365.25 × (Number of events)/(Number of recorded follow-up days).
For the EDIC it represents a projected rate.
