hypoglycemia/nausea

Objective: To assess the efficacy and feasibility of a dual-hormone (DH) closed-loop system with insulin and a novel liquid stable glucagon formulation compared with an insulin-only closed-loop system and a predictive low glucose suspend

Hypoglycaemia has many possible causes, although similar symptoms in each case can make diagnosis of the cause complex. Common early warning signs of hypoglycaemia include blurred vision, dizziness, shakiness, sweating, irritability, nausea and palpitations, progressing to confusion, syncope,

The allocation of hypoglycaemic symptoms to autonomic or neuroglycopenic groups tends to occur on an a priori basis. In view of the practical need for clear symptom markers of hypoglycaemia more scientific approaches must be pursued. Substantial evidence is presented from two large scale studies we

BACKGROUND Antimetabolite-based continuation therapy is commonly used for childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) and hypoglycemia after prolonged fasting has been recently reported. We have found that spontaneous, symptomatic hypoglycemia (SH) may also occur in such patients. METHODS Between

The aim of the present study was to compare intra-nasal glucagon with subcutaneous glucagon as a treatment of insulin-induced hypoglycaemia in 11 children, 7-12 years old, with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. Hypoglycaemia (1.6 +/- 0.1 vs 1.8 +/- 0.2 mmol/l) was induced twice in each

OBJECTIVE To characterize the pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of dasiglucagon, a novel, stable and liquid formulated glucagon analogue, during hypoglycaemic and euglycaemic conditions in adult patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. METHODS In this randomized double-blind trial, 17

Glucagon-like peptide (GLP)-1 analogues such as liraglutide have gained popularity in the treatment of type 2 diabetes over the last years. By mimicking the effects of the native GLP-1, it enhances the glucose-dependent secretion of insulin, suppresses elevated glucagon secretion, increases satiety

BACKGROUND The majority of cases of post-prandial reactive hypoglycemia are considered idiopathic. Abnormalities of B-cell function and glucose regulation by insulin and glucagon have been postulated as causes but associated gastrointestinal dysfunction has not been reported. We report the first

Hypoglycaemia (blood glucose 1.3-2.5 mmol/l) was induced in thirty diabetic children by reduction of their morning meal. Glucagon, 10 or 20 micrograms/kg was then given by intramuscular or subcutaneous injection. Ten min later, all signs of hypoglycaemia had disappeared and blood glucose

BACKGROUND Sunitinib is an oral inhibitor of tyrosine kinase that was used for the treatment of mRCC. The general side effects are fatigue, asthenia, diarrhea, mucositis, nausea, vomiting, skin changes, hypertension, hypothyroidism and hematologic side effects. In addition, sunitinib-induced

A 39-year-old man with myotonic dystrophy consulted our hospital for nausea, vomiting and dizziness that occurred after 75 g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Reexamination of OGTT revealed remarkable hyperinsulinemia (622 microU/ml) followed by reactive hypoglycemia (50 mg/dl) and such

OBJECTIVE Fear of a severe hypoglycemic reaction is a major obstacle to achieving near-normal plasma glucose levels. Although parenteral glucagon is effective in treating these reactions, it is cumbersome to use, causes severe nausea, and is impractical in the school setting. Epinephrine is

A case of chlorpropamide-induced, symptomatic hyponatremia in a diabetic patient is reported. The hyponatremia was associated with loss of appetite, nausea, and vomiting. These symptoms caused reduced food intake which provoked severe hypoglycemia with disturbed consciousness. The hyponatremia

A 69-year-old woman caught a cold resulting in nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and severe anorexia. Then she suffered progressively from dyspnea and leg edema, and finally became delirious. On admission severe hypoglycemia, hypothermia, marked tachycardia, generalized edema, mild jaundice and cachexy
