It is issued by ESP Bioscience and publishes review articles on all aspects of hypoglycemia in diabetes including: basic science, molecular genetics, pathophysiology, epidemiology, and clinical aspects of hypoglycemia prevention, diagnosis and management.

The journal was founded in 2008, with the support of an unrestricted educational grant from Novo Nordisk A/S. [[2]].
