Ketone body tolerance has been studied in 26 newly diagnosed diabetics and 9 normal control persons after rapid i.v. infusion of DL-3-hydroxybutyrate. In juvenile diabetics with high initial fasting concentrations of ketone bodies, disappearance rates of acetoacetate and total ketone bodies in blood...

ABSTRACT. Ketone body tolerance has been studied in 26 newly diagnosed diabetics and 9 normal control persons after rapid i.v. infusion of dl-3-hydroxybutyrate. In juvenile diabetics with high initial fasting concentrations of ketone bodies, disappearance rates of acetoacetate and total ketone bodies...
The total carnitine level in the fasting plasma of diabetics was 48.7 +/- 2.8 microM and acyl/free was 0.58 +/- 0.09. Such characteristics were observed when their plasma glucose had been completely normal for more than 10 days. In patients treated with sulfonylurea, the fasting ketone body ...
