Between July and December 2020, 494 patients with T2D were evaluated via structured questionnaires containing sociodemographic information, clinical information, and the Fear of Hypoglycemia-15 scale (FH-15). Patients were divided into the FoH and non-FoH groups according to the FH-15 score. Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed to determine factors associated with FoH. Variables with <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> values\u2009&lt;\u20090.1 in the univariate model were included in the multivariate model. In this study, the prevalence of FoH was 17.4% (86\/494). 247 (50.0%) patients experienced hypoglycemic episodes in the past year, and 15 (3.0%) patients experienced severe hypoglycemic episodes in the past year. The mean age was 60.04\u2009\u00b1\u200911.71\u00a0years old, and female patients accounted for 39.9% of the sample. The item with the highest average FH-15 scores was: how often are you afraid of having hypoglycemia while alone? Multivariate logistic regression analysis indicated that living alone (OR 2.48; 95% CI 1.20\u20135.14; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.015), number of hypoglycemic episodes in the past year (OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.03\u20131.10; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), number of severe hypoglycemic episodes in the past year (OR 2.61; 95% CI 1.20\u20135.69; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.016), and duration of insulin use (OR 1.06; 95% CI 1.02\u20131.10; <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.006) were associated with FoH. The prevalence of FoH in hospitalized patients with T2D was high. FoH was associated with living alone, number of hypoglycemic episodes in the past year, number of severe hypoglycemic episodes in the past year, and duration of insulin use. These findings can contribute to early decision-making for preventing, identifying, and improving FoH in patients with T2D. In the future, interventions aimed at reducing FoH to improve the harmful effects of FoH are necessary, such as increasing diabetes-related knowledge and skills, increasing social support, reducing psychological fear, and minimizing risks for hypoglycemic episodes.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1038\/s41598-022-24822-1","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,25]],"date-time":"2022-11-25T21:35:49Z","timestamp":1669412149000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":16,"title":["Fear of hypoglycemia and associated factors in hospitalized patients with type 2 diabetes: a cross\u2011sectional study"],"prefix":"10.1038","volume":"12","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5740-1767","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Jing","family":"Huang","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3701-7482","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Wei","family":"Peng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-5739-0092","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shenglan","family":"Ding","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8158-6431","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Shuyuan","family":"Xiong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-1928-2178","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhiping","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,11,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"24822_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"1249","DOI":"10.1007\/s00125-018-4557-7","volume":"61","author":"RCW Ma","year":"2018","unstructured":"Ma, R.
