Hyperglycaemia and pulmonary infection.
Pathophysiological stress from acute illness causes metabolic disturbance, including altered hepatic glucose metabolism, increased peripheral insulin resistance and hyperglycaemia. Acute hyperglycaemia is associated with increased morbidity and mortality in patients in intensive care units and patients with acute respiratory disease. The present review will consider mechanisms underlying this a...
متن کاملSteroid-induced hyperglycaemia and pulmonary disease.
Chakrabarti and colleagues recently reported that hyperglycaemia within 24 h of admission could be used as a predictor of outcome during non-invasive ventilation in decompensated chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Hyperglycaemia was unrelated to prior oral corticosteroid use in this study, but duration of steroid preceding admission was not reported. Furthermore, as this group includ...
متن کاملHyperglycaemia and cancer risk
A recent Swedish prospective study on hyperglycaemia and cancer risk (1) showed an association with total cancer risk in women, and in women and men combined, for several cancer sites. The cancer incidence was compared with both fasting glucose and glucose 2 h after a 75 g glucose load. For women the relative total cancer risks for the top versus bottom quartiles were in the range of 1.3, i.e. ...
متن کاملDiabetes mellitus, hyperglycaemia and cancer.
A moderate increase in cancer risk has been shown in diabetic patients and in individuals with abnormal glucose tolerance, mainly for digestive sites, independently of obesity, with in contrast, a protective effect for prostate cancer. Insulin-resistance with compensatory hyperinsulinemia, and elevated levels of circulating growth factors are usually considered to be the link between cancer and...
