background: hypoglycemia is one of the most common neonatal disorders, associated with severe complications. there has been a great deal of controversy regarding the definition and screening of hypoglycemia. therefore, in this study, we aimed to determine a cut-off value for blood glucose level in glucometer readings. methods: this cross-sectional study was conducted on 238 newborns at risk of ...

Blood glucose control in patients with diabetes mellitus (DM) is reportedly influenced by the seasons, with hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels decreasing in the summer or warm season and increasing in the winter or cold season. In addition, several studies have shown that sepsis is also associated with the seasons. Although both blood glucose control and sepsis can strongly affect the occurrence of ...

Patients with end-stage renal disease (ESRD) regardless of diabetes status are at increased risk of hypoglycemia with a resultant array of adverse clinical outcomes. Therefore, hypoglycemia should be thoroughly evaluated in ESRD patients. In diabetic dialysis patients, hypoglycemic agents and nutritional alterations can trigger hypoglycemia in the background of diminished gluconeogenesis, reduc...

Introduction and aim. Non-ketotic hyperglycemia (NKHG), also known as hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) is a serious metabolic complication of diabetes mellitus (DM).The mortality rate can be up to 20% this much more higher than that diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). It usually precipitated by an event such pulmonary/urinary infection, myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke. In derangements, cent...

The syntheses of triglyceride and its precursors were increased when liver homogenates of ketotic diabetic rats were incubated with [U-14C]-glycero 3-phosphate and cofactors. Triolein sonicates produced a concentration-dependent inhibition of the synthesis of both diglyceride and triglyceride, whereas monoolein sonicates had no effect. Rat serum very low density lipoproteins, like triolein soni...
