According to findings online by the British medical journal The Lancet yesterday, Scientists at Cambridge University in Britain have fruitfully tested an "artificial pancreas" that can be a great help for people suffering from Type1 diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes because of their sugar-level reducing to lower level, sometimes have attacks or even die in their sleep. Such patients need regular injections of insulin because of pancreas malfunctioning in order to keep their sugar level as required.

Almost 100,000 Australians, who suffer this disease, often have to get-up during their sleeping hours to check the sugar-level with finger-prick tests. The dosage for the insulin injection should also be appropriate and all this is presently done only by predictions. Also cases have come forth of adults and children dying because of dangerous low sugar level detected in them. All this can be now made more effective and a more specific by this invention.

There are occasional cases of children and adults dying during the night before dangerously low blood sugar are detected.
