Homonymous quadrantanopia associated with hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome.

ABSTRACT: We encountered a 64-year-old man with hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome, having a sudden-onset homonymous right inferior quadrantanopia. This is the first documentation of such a phenomenon in hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome. We believe this is a variant of hemianopia in patients with hyperglycemic hyperosmolar syndrome.

Case report: Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome secondary to PEG-asparaginase-induced hypertriglyceridemia and pancreatitis.

Project description:Pegylated (PEG)-asparaginase is an established treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemias that exhibits an antitumor effect by depleting asparagine, an amino acid essential for leukemia cell protein synthesis. Pancreatitis with hypertriglyceridemia is a well-established toxidrome associated with PEG-asparaginase. However, impaired pancreatic synthetic function and hormone release have rarely been reported as a result of PEG-asparaginase pancreatitis. In this report, we present a 22-year-old woman recently diagnosed with T-acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL), who presented to the hospital with progressive weakness, confusion, blurry vision, hallucinations, and abdominal pain after induction treatment with daunorubicin, vincristine, PEG-asparaginase, and dexamethasone following the AYA protocol. She was found to have hypertriglyceridemia, acute pancreatitis, and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome. While pancreatitis and hypertriglyceridemia are commonly reported side effects of PEG-asparaginase, HHS related to these conditions has been sparsely reported. Providers should maintain awareness of this association and consider routine serial glucose monitoring of patients receiving PEG-asparaginase.

Formation of large abscess tumor including gallstone in ileum during therapy for hyperosmolar hyperglycemic syndrome: a case report.

Project description:Hyperosmolar hyperglycemic status (HHS) is one of the most serious acute metabolic complications of diabetes mellitus (DM) and the patients with type 2 DM are immunocompromised host, especially when glycemic control is poor. Under hyperglycemic conditions, we have to pay much attention even for rare infection. Bouveret's syndrome is a rare type of gallstone ileus together with duodenal obstruction secondary to the passage of a stone through a cholecystoduodenal fistula. Herein, we reported a rare case with formation of large abscess tumor, including necrotic ileum and gallstone after taking therapy for HHS. She was under more rare conditions rather than Bouveret's syndrome, because large abscess tumor was formed not in the duodenal bulb but in the ileum together with necrotic ileitis and abdominal abscess with impacted gallstone. We should bear in mind that T2DM patients are immunocompromised host in particular under untreated or poorly controlled conditions and thereby they could have rare inflammatory diseases such as a large abscess tumor.Supplementary informationThe online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s13340-021-00540-3.

Central Diabetes Insipidus and Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar State Following Accidental Carbon Monoxide Poisoning.

Project description:Carbon monoxide poisoning is common and carries significant morbidity and mortality. The nervous system, particularly the brain, is frequently affected by it, owing to its high metabolic activity and oxygen requirements. Carbon monoxide damages the nervous system by both hypoxic and inflammatory mechanisms. Central diabetes insipidus is an extremely rare complication of carbon monoxide poisoning. Herein, we report the case of a young lady, who developed this complication and severe hypernatremia after accidental carbon monoxide poisoning. She also developed a hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state during the treatment for hypernatremia. To the best of our knowledge, both these entities have not been reported together in association with carbon monoxide poisoning. The purpose of this article is to emphasize the anticipation and early recognition of central diabetes insipidus in carbon monoxide poisoning. This can prevent severe hypernatremia and complications associated with its presence and treatment.

Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Isolated or Combined Diabetic Ketoacidosis and Hyperosmolar Hyperglycemic State: A Retrospective, Hospital-Based Cohort Study.

Project description:ObjectiveMany patients with hyperglycemic crises present with combined features of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS). The implications of concomitant acidosis and hyperosmolality are not well known. We investigated hospital outcomes in patients with isolated or combined hyperglycemic crises.Research design and methodsWe analyzed admissions data listing DKA or HHS at two academic hospitals. We determined 1) the frequency distributions of HHS, DKA, and combined DKA-HHS (DKA criteria plus elevated effective osmolality); 2) the relationship of markers of severity of illness and clinical comorbidities with 30-day all-cause mortality; and 3) the relationship of hospital complications associated with insulin therapy (hypoglycemia and hypokalemia) with mortality.ResultsThere were 1,211 patients who had a first admission with confirmed hyperglycemic crises criteria, 465 (38%) who had isolated DKA, 421 (35%) who had isolated HHS, and 325 (27%) who had combined features of DKA-HHS. After adjustment for age, sex, BMI, race, and Charlson Comorbidity Index score, subjects with combined DKA-HHS had higher in-hospital mortality compared with subjects with isolated hyperglycemic crises (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 2.7; 95% CI 1.4, 4.9; P = 0.0019). In all groups, hypoglycemia (<40 mg/dL) during treatment was associated with a 4.8-fold increase in mortality (aOR 4.8; 95% CI 1.4, 16.8). Hypokalemia ≤3.5 mEq/L was frequent (55%). Severe hypokalemia (≤2.5 mEq/L) was associated with increased inpatient mortality (aOR 4.9; 95% CI 1.3, 18.8; P = 0.02).ConclusionsCombined DKA-HHS is associated with higher mortality compared with isolated DKA or HHS. Severe hypokalemia and severe hypoglycemia are associated with higher hospital mortality in patients with hyperglycemic crises.

Hyperglycemic clamp-derived disposition index is negatively associated with metabolic syndrome severity in obese subjects.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:Metabolic syndrome is associated with insulin resistance and increased future risk of type 2 diabetes. This study investigates the relationship between insulin secretion, insulin resistance and individual metabolic syndrome components in subjects without a prior diagnosis of diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS:We assessed insulin secretion during hyperglycemic clamps by infusing dextrose to maintain hyperglycemia (200mg/dL), followed by L-arginine administration. Studies in 98 individuals (mean age 45.3±1.2years, 56% female, 22% African-American, 49% with metabolic syndrome) were analyzed. We tested the association between the number of metabolic syndrome components and individual outcome variables using linear mixed-effects models to adjust for potential confounding effects of age, sex, and race. RESULTS:Insulin sensitivity index was reduced in the presence of 1 or more metabolic syndrome components. Insulin sensitivity was independently associated with age, waist circumference, male gender and decreased HDL cholesterol. The acute insulin response was greater with two or more metabolic syndrome components, and late glucose-stimulated and L-arginine-stimulated insulin responses exhibited a similar trend. In contrast, the disposition index, a measure of beta cell compensation for insulin resistance, was linearly lower with the number of metabolic syndrome components, and was negatively associated with age, Caucasian race, waist circumference, fasting glucose, and decreased HDL cholesterol. CONCLUSIONS:The insulin secretory response in metabolic syndrome is inadequate for the worsening insulin sensitivity, as demonstrated by a decline in disposition index. A dysfunctional insulin secretory response is evident in non-diabetic individuals and worsens with accumulation of metabolic syndrome components.

Successful Treatment of Diabetic Ketoacidosis and Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar Status in an Infant with KCNJ11-Related Neonatal Diabetes Mellitus via Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy.

Project description:Neonatal diabetes mellitus (NDM) is a rare monogenic disorder presenting as uncontrolled hyperglycemia during the first 6 months of life. Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) is quite rare in NDM patients, and reported experience with this condition is limited. Continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) is frequently used as a mode of dialytic treatment in critically ill patients with acute renal failure, but has seldom been used in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and HHS. We report the case of a 2-month-old infant admitted to our hospital presenting with dyspnea and lethargy. Blood gas showed severe hyperosmotic DKA. After 21 h of fluid and insulin therapy, the baby presented with increased drowsiness and irregular respiration, which suggested cerebral edema. Moreover, the DKA and HHS were exacerbated. After 18 h of CRRT, the patient gradually recovered from DKA and HHS. The gene analysis revealed a de novo mutation (c.602G > A (p.R201H)) of the KCNJ11 gene, and oral glibenclamide successfully replaced insulin treatment in the patient.

Trends in diabetic ketoacidosis- and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state-related mortality during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States: A population-based study.

Project description:BackgroundDuring the pandemic, a notable increase in diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS), conditions that warrant emergent management, was reported. We aimed to investigate the trend of DKA- and HHS-related mortality and excess deaths during the pandemic.MethodsAnnual age-standardized mortality rates related to DKA and HHS between 2006 and 2021 were estimated using a nationwide database. Forecast analyses based on prepandemic data were conducted to predict the mortality rates during the pandemic. Excess mortality rates were calculated by comparing the observed versus predicted mortality rates. Subgroup analyses of demographic factors were performed.ResultsThere were 71 575 DKA-related deaths and 8618 HHS-related deaths documented during 2006-2021. DKA, which showed a steady increase before the pandemic, demonstrated a pronounced excess mortality during the pandemic (36.91% in 2020 and 46.58% in 2021) with an annual percentage change (APC) of 29.4% (95% CI: 16.0%-44.0%). Although HHS incurred a downward trend during 2006-2019, the excess deaths in 2020 (40.60%) and 2021 (56.64%) were profound. Pediatric decedents exhibited the highest excess mortality. More than half of the excess deaths due to DKA were coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) related (51.3% in 2020 and 63.4% in 2021), whereas only less than a quarter of excess deaths due to HHS were COVID-19 related. A widened racial/ethnic disparity was observed, and females exhibited higher excess mortality than males.ConclusionsThe DKA- and HHS-related excess mortality during the pandemic and relevant disparities emphasize the urgent need for targeted strategies to mitigate the escalated risk in these populations during public health crises.

Combined diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state in type 1 diabetes mellitus induced by immune checkpoint inhibitors: Underrecognized and underreported emergency in ICIs-DM.

Project description:BackgroundCombined diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) secondary to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) is extremely rarely reported among ICIs- diabetes mellitus (DM) cases and is always ignored by physicians. This study aimed to conduct a systematic review to recognize better the rare adverse event of combined DKA-HHS associated with immune checkpoints.MethodsA electronic search in Pubmed/Cochrane/Web of Science, complemented by manual searches in article references, was conducted to identify clinical features of ICIs-combined DKA-HHS.Resultswe identified 106 patients with ICIs- type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) from 82 publications: 9 patients presented a coexistence of metabolic acidosis, severe hyperglycemia, and/or DKA; All patients were not diagnosed as combined DKA-HHS. Compared with ICIs-DKA patients, combined DKA-HHS cases were prone to higher hyperglycemia (1020 ± 102.5 vs 686.7 ± 252.6mg/dL). Moreover, acute kidney injury (87.5% vs 28.6%) and prior chemotherapy (66.7% vs 31.6%) showed higher occurrences with the onset of ICIs-HHS or combined DKA-HHS.B.ConclusionsCombined DKA-HHS portends a poor diagnosis in patients with coexistence features of DKA and HHS, which healthcare professionals and patients should be aware of due to differences in treatment. Our observational retrospective case series shows that patients with more risk factors were more likely to develop combined DKA-HHS. We are the first to report this group of patients' clinical characteristics and outcomes.

Behavioral Consequences and Cortical Reorganization in Homonymous Hemianopia.

Project description:The most common visual defect to follow a lesion of the retrochiasmal pathways is homonymous hemianopia (HH), whereby, in each eye, patients are blind to the contralesional visual field. From a behavioral perspective, in addition to exhibiting a severe deficit in their contralesional visual field, hemianopic patients can also present implicit residual capacities, now usually referred to collectively as blindsight. It was recently demonstrated that HH patients can also suffer from a subtle deficit in their ipsilesional visual field, called sightblindness (the reverse case of blindsight). Furthermore, the nature of the visual deficit in the contralesional and ipsilesional visual fields, as well as the pattern of functional reorganization in the occipital lobe of HH patients after stroke, all appear to depend on the lesion side. In addition to their contralesional and ipsilesional visual deficits, and to their residual capacities, HH patients can also experience visual hallucinations in their blind field, the physiopathological mechanisms of which remain poorly understood. Herein we review blindsight in terms of its better-known aspects as well as its less-studied clinical signs such as sightblindness, hemispheric specialization and visual hallucinations. We also discuss the implications of recent experimental findings for rehabilitation of visual field defects in hemianopic patients.
