background boswellia serrata has been used in a wide variety of diseases, including diabetes mellitus and inflammatory diseases. objectives this study focused on the effects of boswellia serrata aqueous extract on blood glucose and the complications of diabetes in the liver and kidneys and examined the impact of plant on reproduction in diabetic rats. materials and methods the antioxidant capac...

objectives: diabetes mellitusmanifests itself in a wide variety of complications and the symptoms of this disease are multifactorial. previousstudies proved that this disease is directly related to hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia. the aim of this study was to investigate the hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects of hydroalcoholic extract of prangos frulacea (l.)lindlin alloxan-induced diabeti...

the present study was carried out to determine the hypoglycemic activity of the methanolic extract and solvent fractions (n-hexane and ethyl acetate) of ruellia tuberosa in normal and alloxan-induced diabetic rabbits. optimum dose of r. tuberosa for hypoglycemic activity was determined by oral administration of the methanolic extract (me) to normal and diabetic rabbits. diabetes was induced by ...

In this study, we determined rates of lysine metabolism in fetal sheep during chronic hypoglycemia and following euglycemic recovery and compared results with normal, age-matched euglycemic control fetuses to explain the adaptive response of protein metabolism to low glucose concentrations. Restriction of the maternal glucose supply to the fetus lowered the net rates of fetal (umbilical) glucos...

The mechanism of tumor-associated hypoglycemia was examined in 11 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma, 6 of whom presented with severe hypoglycemia and 5 in whom plasma glucose was persistently normal. Serum insulin levels in the hypoglycemic patients were low. Although total serum insulin-like growth factor II (IGF-II) levels in both groups of tumor patients were lower than normal, tumor ti...

OBJECTIVE Uncontrolled hyperglycemia and iatrogenic hypoglycemia represent common and frequently preventable quality and safety issues. We sought to demonstrate the effectiveness of a hypoglycemia reduction bundle, proactive surveillance of glycemic outliers, and an interdisciplinary data-driven approach to glycemic management. METHODS POPULATION all hospitalized adult non-intensive care u...

This study tests the hypothesis that lipids could act as an alternative fuel source in the brain during insulin-induced hypoglycemia. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to hyperinsulinemic (5 mU.kg(-1).min(-1)) hypoglycemic (approximately 50 mg/dl) clamps. In protocol 1, intralipid (IL), a fat emulsion, was infused intravenously to prevent the fall in free fatty acid levels that occurs in ...

Hypoglycemia has been reported to occur frequently among individuals with health-related occupations, especially hospital nurses. In this study, we investigated the risk factors of hypoglycemia. Both female hospital nurses and other female workers participated in this study, which included questionnaires, and daily blood glucose monitoring. Responses from 3,415 workers were included for analysi...

BACKGROUND Patients with advanced diabetic kidney disease (DKD) behave differently to diabetic patients without kidney disease. We aimed to investigate the associations of hypoglycemia and outcomes after initiation of dialysis in patients with advanced DKD on dialysis. METHODS Using National Health Insurance Research Database, 20,845 advanced DKD patients beginning long-term dialysis between ...
