Hypoglycemia occurs when the glucose levels in your blood fall too low. Learn how to manage the symptoms of this condition and establish healthy habits.
Introduction: Low birth weight (LBW) neonates comprising of preterm and small for gestational age (SGA) are at risk of hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia as such in LBW neonates is not well characterized. We aimed to study the blood glucose levels of these neonates and characterise ...
Relationship between decrements in glucose level and metabolic response to hypoglycemia in absence of counterregulatory hormones in the conscious dog To determine the relationship between decreases in glucose and metabolic regulation in the absence of counterregulatory hormones, we infused overnight-fast.....
When a lowglucose levelis unexpectedly reported in a “well” child who has an outpatient chemistry profile drawn for reasons unrelated tocarbohydrate metabolism, it is easy to suspect it is a misleading result. The most common cause of post-phlebotomy artifactual hypoglycemia is glucose consumption...
Conclusions The relationship between the GCS score and the plasma glucose level differed according to the severity of hypoglycemia. Even when a patient has a high GCS score, careful assessment of differential diagnosis should be conducted and the possibility of hypoglycemia should be considered in ...
When maternal hypo- glycemia was induced by infusion of insulin, the younger fetuses displayed proportional hypoglycemia; however, after day 20, the level of plasma glucose in the fetus exceeded the maternal level, and the placental gradient for glucose was reversed. I t is concluded that during...
Glucose is a major fuel for the central nervous system and hypoglycemia is a significant homeostatic stressor, which elicits counterregulatory reactions. Hypothalamic metabolic- and stress-related neurons initiate these actions, however recruitment of glia in control such adaptive circuit remain unknown. ...
In addition to acute changes in mental status, severe hypoglycemia can cause seizures, falls leading to fractures, cognitive impairment, and cardiac arrhythmias resulting in sudden death.2,3 Consequently, treatment guidelines for older adults with type 1 diabetes emphasize minimizing hypoglycemia by ...
9 We chose this strict definition to capture hypoglycemic events severe enough to have potential clinical relevance, whether or not concurrent symptoms occurred, and because a glucose level of 40 mg/dL or lower was the most common definition of hypoglycemia used in the included trials. All ...
Our kinetic data indicate a modulation of the kinetics of carbohydrate metabolism by the blood glucose concentration and report on a special mechanism compensating for the low glucose supply under conditions of extremely low blood glucose level. 展开 ...
