Prediction of seizure control in non-ketotic hyperglycemic induced seizures
BACKGROUND To study the factors predictive for seizure control in non-ketotic hyperglycemic induced seizures (NKHS). METHODS We studied 21 patients who were clinically diagnosed as NKHS at Khon Kaen University hospital, Thailand. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to identify the factors predictive for seizure control. RESULTS Most patients had no previous history of diabetes and ...
متن کاملForced eye closure-induced reflex seizure and non-ketotic hyperglycemia
We report an uncommon case of 53-year-old female patient with partial seizure induced by forced voluntary eye closure due to non-ketotic hyperglycemia. The initial laboratory tests showed an elevated blood glucose level of 550 mg/dL but no evidence of ketosis. Brain magnetic resonance imaging was normal. When the blood glucose levels decreased slowly to about 150 mg/dL in five days, the seizure...
متن کاملFocal seizures and non-ketotic hyperglycaemia.
The clinical features of seven patients with non-ketotic hyperglycaemia who developed focal seizures are presented. All patients were alert except one who was mildly confused. Glucose values varied from 17.8 to 55.1 mmol/l, while calculated osmolarity values were elevated in all cases to a mild or moderate extent (299.1 to 346.5 mmol/l). In three cases diabetes mellitus was a new diagnosis. Fou...
متن کاملHyperglycemic hemianopia: a reversible complication of non-ketotic hyperglycemia.
Four patients each developed a reversible homonymous hemianopia caused by non-ketotic hyperglycemia. In two patients the homonymous hemianopia was the first manifestation of diabetes mellitus type 2. All four patients had abnormal MRI scans; in the three patients who had late follow-up scans the abnormalities resolved completely. In one patient the progressive visual field defect and unusual MR...
متن کاملReflex seizures and non-ketotic hyperglycemia: an unresolved issue
Reflex seizures are a rare form of epilepsy, the pathogenesis of which is unclear. They have been reported in the setting of non-ketotic hyperglycemia (NKH) and are considered to be neuroendocrine in origin. We report a diabetic patient with movement-induced seizures whose presentation suggests that brain ischemia may be the precipitating event in focal seizures seen in the setting of NKH. We r...
