Linear regression model of individual blood glucose concentrations versus individual shivering thresholds. Diamonds, severe hypoglycemia group; triangles, mild hypoglycemia group; filled circles, control group. Decreased blood glucose concentrations were associated with decreased shivering thresholds. Shivering threshold (°C) = 0.032 ∙ [blood glucose (mg dL− 1)] + 34.1; R2 = 0.45. The shivering threshold thus decreased by approximately 1 °C for each 31 mg dL− 1 decrease in blood glucose concentration
