Progressive decrease in N-acetylaspartate/Creatine ratio in a teenager with type 1 diabetes and repeated episodes of ketoacidosis without clinically apparent cerebral edema: Evidence for permanent brain injury.

چکیده
Recent data suggest that DKA may contribute to cognitive impairment in children with type 1 DM. We measured the NAA/Cr ratio in a teenager during and following 2 separate episodes of DKA without clinically apparent cerebral edema. The NAA/Cr ratio decreased during DKA and improved following recovery. However, the NAA/Cr value was lower after the second episode of DKA (1.76) than after the first (1.97). These findings provide support for the hypothesis that neuronal injury may result from DKA.

Background and Objective: The S100B protein has recently been considered as an important marker for predicting severe brain damage; however, there has been very little evidence of increasing this marker in cerebral edema due to metabolic disorders such as diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA). This study was designed and performed to evaluate the prognostic role of S100B protein in predicting brain edema...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Subclinical cerebral edema occurs in many, if not most, children with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and may be an indicator of subtle brain injury. Brain ratios of N-acetylaspartate (NAA) to creatine (Cr), measured by proton MR spectroscopy, decrease with neuronal injury or dysfunction. We hypothesized that brain NAA/Cr ratios may be decreased in children in DKA, indicating...

Background: Predicting adverse neurovascular complications due to diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) particularly in children leads to more appropriately management of disease as well as achievement of acceptable patients' survival. Cerebral edema is a life-threatening adverse event following DKA responsible for high mortality rate. Recently, authors have focused introducing new risk assessment tools ...
