Risks of Intermittent Fasting in Patients With Primary Adrenal Insufficiency
In primary adrenal insufficiency, there is an increased risk of hypoglycaemia and dehydration. These risks have been little studied particularly during intermittent fasting. The present study aimed to assess these risks in a prospective study of 30 subjects with primary adrenal insufficiency. Patients will undergo a clinical examination, blood sampling and continuous glucose monitoring for fourteen days (one week of fasting and one week of non-fasting).
Ramadan Fasting in Secondary Adrenal Insufficiency Patients
Intermittent Ramadan fasting was associated with a risk of complications in patients with adrenal insufficiency. A risk stratification with recommendations (lifestyle and drug adjustment) for fasting in these patients has been recently published. So, this prospective interventional study was carried out to evaluated these recommendations. Patients with secondary adrenal insufficiency and willing to fast Ramadan were included. Before Ramadan, patients underwent a clinical examination and were educated for lifestyle measures and the schedule of glucocorticoid replacement therapy was adjusted. The occurrence of complications and the number of fasted days during the month of Ramadan 2023 were reported and compared with those of Ramadan 2022.
