This research was awarded the 9th Excellent Presentation Award for Medical Staff by the Japan Diabetes Society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:23px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The study utilized medical data from the nation&#8217;s largest clinical database provided by Medical Data Vision Co., Ltd. (Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; President and CEO: Hiroyuki Iwasaki; hereinafter &#8220;MDV&#8221;), which contains data from approximately 52.37 million real patients as of the end of May 2025. Ms. Miho Kageyama, a licensed pharmacist, serves as a lecturer at the Practical Training Education Center, School of Pharmacy, Tokyo University of Pharmacy and Life Sciences, while also continuing her research as a working graduate student at the Clinical Pharmacy Center, School of Pharmacy, Musashino University. This study analyzed clinical data from January 1, 2009, to December 31, 2022, focusing on patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and hypoglycemia, to assess the risk of severe hypoglycemic events requiring hospitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:22px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Regarding the study\u2019s receipt of the Japan Diabetes Society\u2019s Excellent Presentation Award for Medical Staff, Mr. Horii, the academic advisor to Ms. Kageyama, commented:<br>&#8220;This research was made possible thanks to the detailed information available at the time of hospitalization within MDV\u2019s DPC data. I believe it was recognized for offering a unique perspective distinct from studies using other databases. Through this study, I truly came to appreciate the extensibility and comprehensiveness of MDV data, which enable the resolution of a wide range of clinical questions.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comment from Ms. Kageyama:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;As a pharmacist, I explain the importance of preventing and managing hypoglycemia to patients at the pharmacy counter. However, the outcomes of such preventive efforts are often difficult to see.\u000bThrough this study, we were able to visualize initiatives by the Japan Diabetes Society using big medical data analysis.\u000bIt also reaffirmed for me how crucial the proper use of medications is to ensuring their safe application.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"352\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/en.mdv.co.jp\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/\u56f31.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-880\" srcset=\"https:\/\/en.mdv.co.jp\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/\u56f31.png 352w, https:\/\/en.mdv.co.jp\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/\u56f31-253x300.png 253w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 352px) 100vw, 352px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:23px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>The study results showed that key turning points such as the so-called &#8220;Kumamoto Declaration&#8221; in 2013, in which the Japan Diabetes Society set a target HbA1c (hemoglobin A1c) level of less than 7% for glycemic control, and the revision of the Society\u2019s Guidelines for Elderly Diabetes Care in 2017 served as game changers, leading to a significant decline in the incidence of hypoglycemia, as illustrated in the graph below. The introduction of new antidiabetic medications is also believed to have contributed to this trend.
