When rats are fasted they develop a ketonemia (ketosis) and frequently it is high enough to produce a measurable ketonuria. The height of the ket.osis is determined by many factors. When the diet is low in choline and in protein, the liver becomes very fatty (1) and the ketonuria on subsequent fasting is much higher (2,3) than it is in animals that have been on the stock diet or other food mixt...

Ketosisas a metabolic disease is generallynot recognized under commercial swine production methods. This case report involves a sow presented for a Caesarean delivery of her piglets. During the last few weeks of gestation the sow was anorexic, had elevated liver enzymes, ketonuria, and mild ketonemia. After surgical delivery of a normal litter the urinary ketone concentrations decreased slowly....

A subset of insulin requiring diabetes in the young (IRDY) is ketosis resistant. Its pathogenesis and pathophysiology remain ill defined. The current study was done to evaluate the exocrine and endocrine dysfunction in ketosis resistant young diabetics. Fecal chymotrypsin (unit/G), basal & stimulated c-peptide levels (pmol/ml) and sonographic evaluation of the pancreas were done in 59 IRDY pati...

Objectives. Type 2 diabetes (T2D) with ketosis was common because of late diagnosis and lacking adequate treatment in rural regions of China. This study aimed to provide the data of T2D with ketosis among inpatients in a south-west border city of China. Methods. Data of 371 patients of T2D with ketosis who were hospitalized between January 2011 and July 2015 in Baoshan People's Hospital, Yunnan...

AIM The present study was conducted to ascertain the prevalence of ketosis in dairy cows in dairy herds, milksheds, and mixed population of milk cows selected randomly in milkshed areas of Odisha state, India. MATERIALS AND METHODS The investigation was conducted in 280 private dairy herds with variable herd size of 10-15 cows comprising crossbred Jersey cows (CBJ), crossbred Holstein Friesia...

Objective. This study examined the association between serum albumin concentration and ketosis risk in hospitalized individuals with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Methods. A retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted at a medical center in Taiwan. Inclusion criteria were endocrinology ward inpatients exceeding 21 years of age, with preexisting diagnosis of T2DM, and blood glucose abov...

OBJECTIVE Among patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) without known diabetes, hyperglycemia at admission is common and associated with worse outcomes. It may represent developing diabetes, but this association is unclear. Therefore, we examined the association between hyperglycemia (≥140 mg/dL) at admission and evidence of diabetes among patients with AMI without known diabetes within...

BACKGROUND The ketogenic diet (KD) is a very low-carbohydrate, high-fat and adequate-protein diet with no calorie limit that induces a metabolic condition called "physiological ketosis". It was first introduced to treat epilepsy in the 1920s and has become quite popular recently as weight-loss and performance-enhancing diet. Its therapeutic use in a range of diseases is under investigation. Dur...
