… Objective: To determine the presenting features and assessment of the neonateswith hypoglycemia along with maternal and neonatal risk factors for hypoglycemia. Subjects &methods: All consecutive neonates with hypoglycemia admitted were included in the study.Demographic characteristics of the mothers and their babies, past medical history and illnessesduring pregnancy especially that, of diabetes mellitus and duration, details of the management oflabour and place of delivery, birth asphyxia as well as history of feeding prior to admission. All therisk factors and clinical features were documented. Results: From presenting features neonateswere most common temperature instability 32% of the neonates. Maternal risk factors were asMaternal diabetic mellitus, Intrapartum administration of glucose , Maternal drug uses as: (Betablockers, Oral hypoglycemic agents, Valproate), family history of metabolic disorder and withoutany factors with the percentage 13%, 17%, (15%, 08%, 07%) , 27% and 13% respectively.Neonatal risk factors of the patients were found low birth weight 49%, small gestational age 26%,macrosomia 11%, respiratory distress 32%, sepsis 20%, hypothermia 25%, congenital cardiacabnormalities 4%, endocrine disorder 4%, family history of metabolic disorder 7%, inborn errorsof metabolism 4%, rhesus hemolytic disease 5%, erythroblastosis fetalis 1%, inadequate feeding35% and neonates without factors were 6%. Conclusions: The risk factors associate withneonatal hypoglycemia are, low birth weight, small gestational age, macrodome, respiratorydistress, sepsis, hypothermia and inadequate feeding , and maternal risk factors associate toneonatal hypoglycemia was Eclampsia, Maternal diabetic mellitus, and maternal drug uses

Background: Family history of diabetes mellitus is a useful tool for detecting children and adolescents at risk of the disease. The aim of this study is to determine the prevalence and describe the characteristics of family history of diabetes mellitus in Nigerian children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes. Methods: A retrospective chart review of children and adolescents newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes was conducted in three tertiary-healthcare institutions in Nigeria. In addition to the review of charts of old patients, other children and adolescents who presented with new-onset diabetes during  the review process were also included. An interviewer-administered questionnaire was used in obtaining information from the patients and their parents. Using the criteria suggested by Scheuner et al, the family history risk category was stratified into average, moderate and high. Results: Out of a total of 65 children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes, 29(44.6%, 95% CI= 32.6-56.7) had a positive family history of diabetes mellitus. Of the affected family members, 42.9% were first-degree relatives. The frequencies of family history risk category were average 65.5%, moderate 27.6% and high 6.9%. Among the affected family members in whom information on their diabetes status was available, 19(86.4%) had type 2 diabetes and only 3(13.6%) had type 1 diabetes. Conclusion: Four out of every ten patients with type 1 diabetes in the paediatric age group, have a first- degree relative with a positive family history of diabetes.
