Misleading Presentation of Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis: Implication for Low-Mid-Income Communities

Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis with Persistent Diuresis Treated with Canagliflozin

Diabetic ketoacidosis is characterized by hyperglycemia, anion-gap acidosis, and increased plasma ketones. After the resolution of hyperglycemia, persistent diuresis is rare. We herein report the case of a 27-year-old Asian woman with type 2 diabetes who was treated with a sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor (canagliflozin) who developed euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis and persist...

Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis: a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma

Euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (EDKA) is a clinical triad comprising increased anion gap metabolic acidosis, ketonemia or ketonuria and normal blood glucose levels <200 mg/dL. This condition is a diagnostic challenge as euglycemia masquerades the underlying diabetic ketoacidosis. Thus, a high clinical suspicion is warranted, and other diagnosis ruled out. Here, we present two patients on regu...

Euglycemic Diabetic Ketoacidosis in a Patient with Cocaine Intoxication

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is characterized by elevated anion gap metabolic acidosis, hyperglycemia, and elevated ketones in urine and blood. Hyperglycemia is a key component of DKA; however, a subset of DKA patients can present with near-normal blood glucose, an entity described as "euglycemic DKA." This rare phenomenon is thought to be due to starvation and food restriction in insulin depend...

Deep vein thrombosis as the first presentation of diabetic ketoacidosis

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) as a manifestation of vein thromboembolism is a frequent and potentially life-threatening disease especially in hospitalized and immobile patients. Diabetes mellitus and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) are of its reported, challenging risk factors. Here, we reported a diabetic patient presented with DKA and DVT who showed hypothyroidism-induced warfarin resistance
