Neonatal hypoglycemia 3.3 does it affect intelligence

Patient's question:

Neonatal hypoglycemia 3.3 will interfere with intelligence?

Doctor's answer:

Neonatal hypoglycemia refers to a condition where the blood glucose level of a newborn is higher than the required blood glucose concentration. It is commonly seen in premature infants, full-term infants, mothers of diabetic children, neonates with hypoxia and respiratory distress, hardening, sepsis, and other infectious diseases. Neonatal hypoglycemia may be a primary disease or a clinical manifestation of other diseases. Persistent or recurrent severe hypoglycemia can lead to damage to the central nervous system and may leave behind sequelae, such as intellectual developmental delay.
