The Relationship among Glycemic, Small Intestinal Transit and Insulinemic States in Normal Mice
Gastrointestinal (GI) complications during diabetes mellitus (DM) are common. Attempts to ascribe changes in the glycemic state to the altered GI (gastrointestinal) motility in experimental models yielded varied results. In the present study the possible cause-effect relationship between the changes in the glycemic, insulinemic states and small intestinal transit (SIT) in normal mice was examin...
متن کاملInsulin for the treatment of hyperkalemia: a double-edged sword?
Potassium plays a critical role in cellular metabolism and normal neuromuscular function. Tightly regulated homeostatic mechanisms have developed in the process of evolution to provide primary defense against the threats of hyperand hypokalemia. The kidney plays a primary role in potassium balance, by increasing or decreasing the rate of potassium excretion. Distribution of potassium between th...
متن کاملHyperkalemia in Two Patients with Diabetes Mellitus and Chronic Kidney Disease and the Role of Disrupted Internal Potassium Balance
To identify factors associated with the development of hyperkalemia in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD), we analyzed conditions present during episodes of hyperkalemia in two patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus who had elevated serum potassium concentration ([K]) in ≥ 20% of the blood samples during both the pre-hemodialysis and the hemodialysis period. In both patients,...
متن کاملMeasurement of the Radiation Dose Rates of Patients Receiving Treatment with I-131 Using Telescopic Radiation Survey Meter
Introduction In order to discharge the patients receiving treatment with large radiation doses of 131I for thyroid cancer, it is necessary to measure and evaluate the external dose rates of these patients. The aim of the study was to assess a new method of external dose rate measurement, and to analyze the obtained results as a function of time. Materials and Methods In this study, a telescopic...
متن کاملEffect of Patiromer on Serum Potassium Level in Patients With Hyperkalemia and Diabetic Kidney Disease: The AMETHYST-DN Randomized Clinical Trial.
IMPORTANCE Hyperkalemia is a potentially life-threatening condition predominantly seen in patients treated with renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) inhibitors with stage 3 or greater chronic kidney disease (CKD) who may also have diabetes, heart failure, or both. OBJECTIVES To select starting doses for a phase 3 study and to evaluate the long-term safety and efficacy of a potassium-bi...
