Suspension of basal insulin to avoid hypoglycemia in type 1 diabetes treated with insulin pump
UNLABELLED Treatment with continuous s.c. insulin infusion (CSII) provides better glycemic control and lower risk of hypoglycemia than conventional therapy with multiple daily insulin injections. These benefits have been related to a more reliable absorption and an improved pharmacokinetic profile of insulin delivered through CSII therapy. However, even for patients treated with CSII, exaggerat...
متن کاملRole of abdominal CT in predicting the diagnosis of insulin resistant diabetes abbreviated title:Diagnosing insulin resistant diabetes on abdominal CT
We report a diagnosis of diabetes type 2 suggested by diffuse omental infiltration seen on computed tomography which resolved following treatment. There have been reports of increased macrophage infiltration in the omental fat of diabetic patients which we believe is identifiable by CT. To our knowledge, the diagnosis of diabetes with CT has not yet been reported. Diabetes type 2 is commonly a ...
متن کاملCavefish
What are cavefish? Like other cave-dwelling animals, fish that live in caves have often lost their eyes and body colour, but the evolutionary mechanisms underlying these reductions are unknown. There are 86 species of cavefish that belong to 18 different families, and many of them have lost their eyes independently. Comparing cavefish to their free-living ancestors can thus help us understand c...
متن کاملSteroid amelioration of immunogenic insulin-resistant diabetes: a proposed mechanism.
Among the possible mechanisms of insulin resistant diabetes, binding of insulin in the intravascular' or interstitial compartments by antibody has received-considerable investigative attention.' Although adrenal steroid.s are often helpful in this situation,'evidence that steroid-induced reduction of insulin antibody is the cause of reduction in insulin requirement remains equivocal.2"3 Two obs...
