The effects of hypoglycemia on regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF) were studied in awake restrained rats. The rats were divided into three groups consisting of a normoglycemic control group that received only saline, a hypoglycemic group A, which was given insulin 30 min before flow was measured, and a hypoglycemic group B, which was given insulin 90 and 30 min before flow was measured. Regiona...

BACKGROUND The present study was conducted to analyze possible risk factors in patients with type 2 diabetes who are in hypoglycemic coma. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 194 patients with type 2 diabetic hypoglycemic coma who were admitted to our hospital between January 2010 and January 2016 were included. The patients were all in coma on admission, and their blood glucose levels were lower t...

The effect of hypoglycemia on the progression of atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) remains largely unknown. This is a post hoc analysis of a randomized trial to investigate the relationship between hypoglycemic episodes and changes in carotid intima-media thickness (IMT). Among 274 study subjects, 104 patients experienced hypoglycemic episodes. Increases in the me...

the hypoglycemic effect of ethanolic extract of casearia esculenta was investigated on alloxan induced diabetic rats. the blood glucose levels were measured at 0, 1, 2 and 3 h after the treatment. the ethanolic extract of c. esculenta (250 mg/kg) reduced the blood glucose of normal rat from 85.50±1.22 to 64.67±3.27 mg/dl, 3 h after oral administration of the extract (p<0.05). it also significan...

there is some report about the hypoglycemic effect of juglans rejia l. leaf in alloxan induced diabetic rats and hypoglycemic effect of its fruit peel administered intra peritoneally. thirty male wistar rats divided into five groups, to evaluate the hypoglycemic and pancreas β-cells regenerative effects of oral methanolic extracts of leaf and fruit peel of walnut. rats were made diabetic by int...

We present the case of a 55 yr female who had recurrent severe hypoglycemic attacks with neuroglycopenic symptoms and altered sensorium including coma. The hypoglycemic episodes were not related to fasting. The hypoglycemia was hyperinsulinemic but all imaging modalities for insulinoma were negative. Selective arterial calcium stimulation test localized the lesion to splenic artery territory an...

Insulin and insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II) have recently been shown to have biological activity in central neurons, but their normal functions and mechanisms of action in the brain are unknown. Since central neurons are particularly vulnerable to hypoglycemia that results from ischemia or other insults, we tested the hypothesis that growth factors can protect central ne...

OBJECTIVE This study was performed to determine the effects of the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) report in 1993 and the introduction of Lispro (Humalog) insulin in 1996 on glycemic control and on the number of severe hypoglycemic episodes in type 1 diabetic patients of various ages. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS Diabetes care parameters and HbA1c data from 884 subjects with ty...

BACKGROUND Diabetes is a serious chronic metabolic disorder. Trichosanthes kirilowii Maxim. (TK) is traditionally used for the treatment of diabetes in traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). However, the clinical application of TK on diabetic patients and the hypoglycemic efficacies of TK are still unclear. METHODS A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the usage of Chinese herbs ...

Objective: This study aims to identify the relationship between hypoglycemic confidence and hypoglycemia fear in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients.&#x0D; Method: Designed as a descriptive cross-sectional study, this research was conducted with 306 patients who visited polyclinic have an examination period December 2021 February 2022. The data were collected by using “Patient Identification Form...
