Background Machine learning is a powerful tool to define relationships between large data variables through computing algorithms. In medicine, machine can find the association given disease and disease-related complications such as relationship Diabetes development of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). The aim this study develop evaluate predicting model for among pediatric case...

OBJECTIVE Excess GH causes insulin resistance and impaired glucose metabolism. The objective of this study was to clarify the prevalence of ketoacidosis as the initial presenting symptom of acromegaly. DESIGN AND METHODS Data were collected from 860 patients with acromegaly who underwent pituitary surgery at Toranomon Hospital over the last 32 years, between 1980 and 2011. RESULTS Nine case...

We report hemolysis due to glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G-6-PD) deficiency in two Egyptian monozygotic brothers, at the onset of diabetes type 1. Hemolysis occurred following the treatment of hyperglycemia and ketoacidosis (one twin). It was related to unknown G-6-PD deficiency. The fall in glucose availability after the treatment of hyper glycemia is proposed as a possible etiology for h...

A 37 year old man with Behçet's disease who was maintained on prolonged corticosteroid therapy, developed diabetic ketoacidosis and pneumonia. Secondary infection with mucor intervened with abscess formation cured by pneumonectomy. The association of Behçet's disease and mucormycosis has not been previously reported, although diabetes mellitus was almost certainly the predisposing cause. Surgic...

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is one of metabolic disorder, which is characterized by elevation of blood glucose level as consequences of insulin resistance and insulin deficiency. By the history of illness, Diabetic patients because of various condition will experience various complications, either as acute (hypoglycemia, ketoacidosis, and Non-ketotic hyperosmolarity) or chronic complication (macro...

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) transplantation is a promising therapeutic strategy for type 1 diabetes (T1D). However, little is known on whether MSC transplantation can benefit T1D patients with ketoacidosis and its potential actions. Here, we show that infusion with bone marrow MSCs preserves β-cell function in some T1D patients with ketoacidosis by decreasing exogenous insulin requirement and...

We present a case of diabetic ketoacidosis, known as one of the most serious metabolic complications of diabetes. We were confronted with rapid neurological deterioration and unseen glycaemic values, which reached almost 110 mmol/L, subsequently resulting in hyperkalaemia and life-threatening dysrhythmias. This is the first reported live case with such high values of blood glucose and a favoura...

Pulmonary mucormycosis is an uncommon infection and its endobronchial form is rare. Fever, cough, dyspnoea and hemoptysis are the usual presenting symptoms. Hoarseness of voice, a rare manifestation of endobronchial mucormycosis, has been reported earlier but its exact anatomical basis was unclear. We report an instance of polypoid endobronchial mucormycosis and vocal cord paralysis in a patien...

Although most women with type 1 diabetes experience the normal transition to menopause, there is little information about the impact of hormone replacement therapy on their glycemic profiles. A 54-year-old postmenopausal woman with fulminant type 1 diabetes was admitted to our hospital due to diabetic ketoacidosis. She was treated with fluid replacement and a continuous insulin infusion. Therea...
