Ketones for Pulmonary Hypertension - Effects on Hemodynamics

Pulmonary HypertensionKetonemia

In the present study, patients with idiopathic pulmonary hypertension (IPAH) and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertenion will be investigated in a randomized cross-over design with ketone infusions and placebo. Invasive and non-invasive hemodynamics will be evaluated

Non-invasive Assessment of the Current State of Hydration in Children by Ultrasound

GastroenteritisDiabetes Mellitus (Ketoacidosis)

Children with clinical signs of severe dehydration will be examined by ultrasound in a supine position during admission. Children aged between 1 and 15years will be divided into three weight groups: 10-20kg, 20-30kg, 30-50kg. Early after admission 1st measurement of diameters of vena cava inferior (VCImax, VCImin) during breathing cycles and diameters of both venae jugulares (VJI dx max, min, VJI sin max, min) before and after passive leg raise maneuver will be recorded. After a defined fluid infusion within 60 minutes, a second examination will be evaluated and compared with the first one. The investigators considered also echocardiography to measure CO changes however they wanted to make it as simple as it might be at emergency during the night shift without an experienced cardiologist.

Ketosis-Prone Diabetes Mellitus (KPDM): Metformin Versus Sitagliptin Treatment

Ketosis Prone DiabetesDiabetes Ketoacidosis1 more

The study intends on enrolling 48 subjects with diabetes. Diabetic subjects that no longer need insulin will be randomly placed (like the flip of a coin) on a diabetes pill called metformin, a diabetes pill called sitagliptin or a placebo pill (a pill without active medication). Subjects on pills will be followed for 3½ years and undergo blood tests at specified intervals to assess their ability to make insulin. These studies will allow a better understanding of the factors that lead to high blood sugar in patients with ketosis-prone diabetes mellitus (KPDM) and direct the best diabetes treatment for this patient population. Hypothesis: Metformin therapy or sitagliptin therapy compared to placebo, will improve β-cell function, insulin sensitivity, and allow for a longer period of time prior to encountering an insulin-deficient relapse after discontinuation of insulin therapy.

What is the Maximum Amount of Carbohydrates That is Still Able to Induce Ketosis and Suppress Appetite?...

Obesity

Two dietary approaches, very low energy diets (VLEDs) and ketogenic low carbohydrate diets (KLCDs), have the ability to suppress appetite. The suppression of appetite typically observed during these diets is believed (but not clinically proven) to be due to ketosis, a condition where circulating concentrations of ketone bodies are increased due to a higher production of ketones in the liver. Little is known about the potential mechanisms through which ketosis may lead to appetite suppression in VLEDs and KLCDs. A 'ketogenic diet' typically contains less than 50 grams carbohydrate per day, yet ketosis has been seen in subjects who consume diets with a carbohydrates ranging between 59-192 grams per day. Although an association between ketosis and appetite suppression has been established, the minimum level of ketosis and maximum carbohydrate intake that is still associated with appetite suppression remains unknown and should be explored. The ability to increase carbohydrate intake while maintaining a suppressed appetite will allow dieters to consume more carbohydrate-rich food that is beneficial for health without feeling more hungry. The study, 'can Appetite Suppression be achieved using KEtogenic Diets with more carbohydrates?' (ASKED) aimed to: to identify the maximum carbohydrate intake that is still associated with appetite suppression in a low energy diet and to determine the impact of a higher carbohydrate intake on appetite suppression, ketosis, body composition, and resting metabolic rate. A to evaluate the impact of weight loss while in and out of ketosis on markers of appetite (appetite related hormones and appetite sensations measured using visual analogue scales).

Risk Factors and Outcomes of Acute Kidney Injury in Patients With Diabetic Ketoacidosis at Sohag...

Diabetic KetoacidosisAcute Kidney Injury

Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a severe complication of diabetes mellitus (DM), is the leading cause of hospitalization, morbidity and mortality in patients with DM (1). DKA is associated with hyperglycemic crises and featured by metabolic acidosis, the production of ketoacids, volume depletion, and electrolyte imbalance. Due to glucose-induced osmotic polyuria and even emesis, volume depletion is a major cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) in DKA patients (2).
