• Aims. To develop a simple hypoglycemic prediction model to evaluate the risk of hypoglycemia during hospitalization in patients with type 2 diabetes treated with intensive insulin therapy. Methods. We performed a cross-sectional chart review study utilizing the electronic database of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University, and included 257 patients with type 2 diabetes undergoing intensive insulin therapy in the Department of Endocrinology and Metabolism. Logistic regression analysis was used to derive the clinical prediction rule with hypoglycemia (blood glucose≤3.9 mmol/L) as the main result, and internal verification was performed. Results. In the derivation cohort, the incidence of hypoglycemia was 51%. The final model selected included three variables: fasting insulin, fasting blood glucose, and total treatment time. The area under the curve (AUC) of this model was 0.666 (95% CI: 0.594–0.738, P<0.001). Conclusions. The model’s hypoglycemia prediction and the actual occurrence are in good agreement. The variable data was easy to obtain and the evaluation method was simple, which could provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of hypoglycemia and screen patients with a high risk of hypoglycemia.
