The Somogyi effect is a phenomenon where hypoglycaemia is followed by hyperglycaemia as a result of an over-reaction to the low sugar. It is usually seen in children with insulin dependent diabetes mellitus, especially where an insulin with a long acting component is being used.
Collection of urine in fractions through the day may demonstrate glycosuria worse at some times than at others.
