abstract background: hypoglycaemia is a well recognized complication of falciparum malaria in children but its diagnosis may be overlooked because all the clinical features may be mimicked by severe malaria. to determine the prevalence of hypoglycaemia at the point of hospital admission of under-fives with falciparum malaria and identify its risk factors in patients seen in a nigerian secondary...

background: neonatal deaths mostly occur within the first one week and first 24 hours of life from a variety of conditions. objective: to examine the role of significant hypothermia and hypoglycaemia, in addition to some other factors, in neonatal mortality occurring within the first 24 hours of admission.methods: a prospective study of newborn infants hospitalized within the first 24 hours of ...

Hypoglycaemia is a common barrier to optimal glycaemic management and often feared among adults with type 1 diabetes. The aim of this systematic review was summarize current evidence regarding the impact hypoglycaemia on quality life (QoL) related outcomes. Electronic searches MEDLINE, PsycINFO, CINAHL, Cochrane Database Systematic Reviews, Central Register Controlled Trials were conducted. Pee...

AIM This study described and compared the perception of hypoglycaemia in both patients with type 1 diabetes and diabetologists. METHODS This was an observational cross-sectional study undertaken in France in 2011. Data for what hypoglycaemia represents and practices related to it were collected using a questionnaire completed by patients with type 1 diabetes (all>12 years of age) and their di...

background & objectives: streptozotocin (stz) is used for induction of type-1 diabetes mellitus in animal models. its beta-cytotoxic action results in sudden release of insulin leading to severe hypoglycaemia and even mortality. however, its sensitivity varies with species. present investigation was aimed at studying stz induced acute clinical effects in rabbits. methods: streptozotocin@ 65...

Abstract: Tramadol is most commonly used opioid analgesic. It has a very rare and serious endocrine metabolic side effect as hypoglycaemia. The reason behind hypoglycaemia still unclear but it may lead due to increased insulin concentration utilization of glucose by muscles. In this report, patient prescribed tramadol for toothache. This report focuses on administration. Clinical Pharmacists sh...

Background & Objectives: Alloxan & streptozotocin are used for inducing diabetic models. Their combination has been used to reduce the individual chemical dosage and minimize the side effects. Present investigation was aimed at studying pre-diabetic clinical changes induced by low doses of Alloxan-STZ cocktail in rabbits. Methods: New Zealand White rabbits, 1-1.5 kg body weight, were administe...
