Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a complication of diabetes mellitus, is a severe metabolic disease that often requires intensive treatment. Diagnosis of ketosis associated with DKA can be difficult due to variability in the metabolic state of DKA patients. Recognition of the clinical signs and
Previous studies demonstrated alterations of thyroidal economy in untreated diabetes mellitus both in man and experimental animals. To test the role of beta-hydroxybutyric acid (BHB) and acidosis in generating such changes, we studied the pituitary-thyroid axis of streptozotocin-diabetic rats, BHB
Diabetes mellitus was diagnosed in a 5-year-old male chestnut-fronted macaw (Ara severa) and an 8-year-old female Military macaw (Ara militaris) based on persistent hyperglycaemia and glucosuria. Hepatic biopsies showed marked hepatic haemosiderosis, while pancreatic biopsies showed no inflammatory
BACKGROUND
Currently, there are no uniform standards and methods for perioperative glycemic control in bone fracture patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We retrospectively analyzed the efficacy and safety of two intensive insulin therapy regimens administered to bone fracture patients
BACKGROUND
In diabetes mellitus (DM) patients with ketoacidosis, ketone bodies, i.e., acetone, acetoacetic acid (AA) and β-hydroxybutyric acid (HA), are increased in the blood and urine. Acetone is also excreted by breathing due to the spontaneous decomposition of AA. Thus, the increase in acetone
Serum concentrations of β-hydroxybutyric acid (sBHBA) are increased in cats with diabetes mellitus (DM), diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hepatic lipidosis (HL). This study assessed sBHBA as a diagnostic tool in 215 consecutively-enrolled ill cats in the general population in a veterinary hospital.
Thirty-eight patients with juvenile diabetes mellitus, aged 21-77, were tested for platelet aggregation in vitro. Vascular complications were found in 20 patients with diabetic retinopathy in 16 of these. All patients received their usual dose of insulin in the morning on the day of the
It is well known that patients with insulin-dependent (or type I) diabetes mellitus are at high risk for bacterial infections. Since conflicting results have been reported on non-specific immune responses in type I diabetes, polymorphonuclear cell (PMN)-mediated phagocytosis and superoxide anion
Maternal obesity and gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) were frequently reported to be risk factors for obesity and diabetes in offspring. Our goal was to study the impact of maternal prepregnancy BMI (pBMI) and GDM on both maternal and cord blood metabolic BACKGROUND
Diabetes mellitus is characterized jointly by hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia that make insulin more prone to be glycated and evolve insulin advanced glycation end products (Insulin- AGE). Here, we report the effect of beta-hydroxy butyrate (BHB) (the predominant ketone body) on the
To diagnose the cause of death in autopsy cases, systematic examinations, such as macroscopic, pathological, biochemical, and toxicological are important. In this case report, drug examinations also gave very useful information to diagnose the cause of death, fatal diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). A
Diabetes mellitus is classified as the epidemic of the 21st century. Due to the fact that acute carbohydrate metabolism disorders usually do not indicate morphological change, postmortem diagnosis is required to perform biochemical tests. The authors decided to evaluate the usefulness of determining
Diabetic ketoacidosis is caused by accumulation of acetoacetic and β-hydroxybutyric acids and is a common acute metabolic complication of type 1 diabetes mellitus. A much less common and recognized metabolic complication is diabetic ketoacidosis with alkalaemia ("ketoalkalosis"). Diuretic use,
To investigate one potential mechanism whereby physical training improves the plasma concentration of ketone bodies in experimental diabetes mellitus, we measured the activity of 3-ketoacid CoA-transferase, the key enzyme in the peripheral utilization of ketone bodies. Diabetes was induced with
BACKGROUND
Frequent causes of high anion gap metabolic acidosis (HAGMA) are lactic acidosis, ketoacidosis and impaired renal function. In this case report, a HAGMA caused by ketones, L- and D-lactate, acute renal failure as well as 5-oxoproline is discussed.
METHODS
A 69-year-old woman was admitted
