Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), a severe complication of type 1 diabetes (T1D), is triggered by production of large quantities of ketone bodies, requiring patients with T1D to constantly monitor their ketone levels. Here, a skin-compatible hydrogel microneedle (HMN)-continuous ketone monitoring (HMN-CKM) device is reported. The sensing mechanism relies on the catechol-quinone chemistry inherent to the dopamine (DA) molecules that are covalently linked to the polymer structure of the HMN patch. The DA serves the dual-purpose of acting as a redox mediator for measuring the byproduct of oxidation of 3-beta-hydroxybutyrate (β-HB), the primary ketone bodies; while, also facilitating the formation of a crosslinked HMN patch. A universal approach involving pre-oxidation and detection of the generated catechol compounds is introduced to correlate the sensor response to the β-HB concentrations. It is further shown that real-time tracking of a decrease in ketone levels of T1D rat model is possible using the HMN-CKM device, in conjunction with a data-driven machine learning model that considers potential time delays.

Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a potentially life-threatening complication of diabetes and can sometimes be the first indication of undiagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Our case presents a unique scenario in which a two-year-old female presented to her pediatrician with persistent abdominal pain, along with fatigue and tachypnea. On physical examination, she was mildly distressed, tachypneic, and utilized accessory muscles during respiration. Subsequent urinalysis indicated elevated glucose levels of 500 milligrams/deciliter (mg/dL). She was promptly referred to the emergency department to be treated for DKA. Upon arrival, the patient's glucose level was elevated at 533 mg/dL, with an anion gap of 25. She was stabilized and admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) with a new diagnosis of T1DM with ketoacidosis. Given the emergent nature of DKA and the need for immediate treatment, physicians should consider DKA as a potential diagnosis for any pediatric patient presenting with abdominal pain.

Abstract
An acute metabolic complication of diabetes mellitus, especially type 1, is diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), which is due to an increase in blood ketone concentrations. Sodium/glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor (SGLT2-i) drugs have been associated with the occurrence of a particular type of DKA defined as euglycemic (euDKA), characterized by glycemic levels below 300 mg/dL. A fair number of euDKA cases in SGLT2-i-treated patients have been described, especially in the last few years when there has been a significant increased use of these drugs. This form of euDKA is particularly insidious because of its latent onset, associated with unspecific symptomatology, until it evolves (progressing) to severe systemic forms. In addition, its atypical presentation can delay diagnosis and treatment. However, the risk of euDKA associated with SGLT2-i drugs remains relatively low, but it is essential to promptly diagnose and manage it to prevent its serious life-threatening complications. In this narrative review, we intended to gather current research evidence on SGLT2i-associated euDKA from randomized controlled trials and real-world evidence studies, its diagnostic criteria and precipitating factors.

Abstract
Background Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a frequent acute complication of diabetes mellitus (DM). It develops quickly, produces severe symptoms, and greatly affects the lives and health of individuals with DM.This article utilizes machine learning methods to examine the baseline characteristics that significantly contribute to the development of DKA. Its goal is to identify and prevent DKA in a targeted and early manner. Methods This study selected 2382 eligible diabetic patients from the MIMIC-IV dataset, including 1193 DM patients with ketoacidosis and 1186 DM patients without ketoacidosis. A total of 42 baseline characteristics were included in this research. The research process was as follows: Firstly, important features were selected through Pearson correlation analysis and random forest to identify the relevant physiological indicators associated with DKA. Next, logistic regression was used to individually predict DKA based on the 42 baseline characteristics, analyzing the impact of different physiological indicators on the experimental results. Finally, the prediction of ketoacidosis was performed by combining feature selection with machine learning models include logistic regression, XGBoost, decision tree, random forest, support vector machine, and k-nearest neighbors classifier. Results Based on the importance analysis conducted using different feature selection methods, the top five features in terms of importance were identified as mean hematocrit (haematocrit_mean), mean hemoglobin (haemoglobin_mean), mean anion gap (aniongap_mean), age, and Charlson comorbidity index (charlson_comorbidity_index). These features were found to have significant relevance in predicting DKA. In the individual prediction using logistic regression, these five features have been proven to be effective, with F1 scores of 1.000 for hematocrit mean, 0.978 for haemoglobin_mean, 0.747 for age, 0.692 for aniongap_mean and 0.666 for charlson_comorbidity_index. These F1 scores indicate the effectiveness of each feature in predicting DKA, with the highest score achieved by mean hematocrit. In the prediction of DKA using machine learning models, including logistic regression, XGBoost, decision tree, and random forest demonstrated excellent results, achieving an F1 score of 1.000. Additionally, by applying feature selection techniques, noticeable improvements were observed in the experimental performance of the support vector machine and k-nearest neighbors classifier. Conclusion The study found that hematocrit, hemoglobin, anion gap, age, and Charlson comorbidity index are closely associated with ketoacidosis. In clinical practice, these five baseline characteristics should be given with the special attention to achieve early detection and treatment, thus reducing the incidence of the disease.

Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is an acute life-threatening emergency in patients with diabetes, it can result in serious morbidity and mortality. Management of DKA requires reversing metabolic derangements, correcting volume depletion, electrolyte imbalances and acidosis while concurrently treating the precipitating illness. There are still controversies regarding certain aspects of DKA management. Different society guidelines have inconsistencies in their recommendations, while some aspects of treatment are not precise enough or have not been thoroughly studied. These controversies may include issues such as optimal fluid resuscitation, rate and type of Insulin therapy, potassium and bicarbonate replacement. Many institutions follow common society guidelines, however, other institutions either develop their own protocols for internal use or do not routinely use any protocols, resulting in inconsistencies in treatment and increased risk of complications and suboptimal outcomes. The objectives of this article are to review knowledge gaps and controversies in the treatment of DKA and provide our perspective on these issues. Moreover, we believe that special patient factors and comorbidities should receive more careful attention and consideration. Factors like pregnancy, renal disease, congestive heart failure, acute coronary syndrome, older age, use of sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and site of care all impact the treatment approach and require tailored management strategies. However, guidelines often lack sufficient recommendations regarding specific conditions and comorbidities, we aim to address unique circumstances and provide an approach to managing complex patients with specific conditions and co-morbidities. We also sought to examine changes and trends in the treatment of DKA, illuminate on aspects of latest research with a perspective towards future developments and modifications.

Abstract
AIM To determine the effectiveness and safety of early combination of insulin glargine with intravenous (IV) insulin infusion compared with IV insulin infusion alone in the management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). METHODS This was a single-centre, open-label, randomized controlled trial of adults aged 18 years or older diagnosed with DKA. The 'early glargine' group was given subcutaneous insulin glargine 0.3 units/kg within the first 3 hours of DKA diagnosis, in addition to the standard IV insulin infusion. The control group received standard IV insulin treatment only. The primary outcome was the time to DKA resolution. The other outcomes included rebound hyperglycaemia, mortality, hypoglycaemia and hypokalaemia, as well as the length of hospital stay (LOS). RESULTS A total of 60 patients (30 patients per group) were enrolled. Most patients (76.7%) had type 2 diabetes. Both groups were similar in baseline characteristics, except for higher serum beta-hydroxybutyrate and lower pH levels in the early glargine group. The mean ± standard deviation time to DKA resolution in the early glargine group was significantly faster than the control group (9.89 ± 3.81 vs. 12.73 ± 5.37 hours; P = .022). The median (interquartile range) LOS was significantly shorter in the early glargine group than in the control group (4.75 [3.53-8.96] vs. 15.25 [5.71-26.38] days; P = .024). The incidence of rebound hyperglycaemia, all-cause mortality, hypoglycaemia and hypokalaemia was similar between the groups. CONCLUSIONS Early combination of insulin glargine with IV insulin infusion led to a faster DKA resolution and a shorter LOS, without increasing hypoglycaemia and hypokalaemia.

Abstract
Hyperosmolar Hyperglycaemic State (HHS) is a medical emergency associated with high mortality. It occurs less frequently than diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), affects those with pre-existing/new type 2 diabetes mellitus and increasingly affecting children/younger adults. Mixed DKA/HHS may occur. The JBDS HHS care pathway consists of 3 themes (clinical assessment and monitoring, interventions, assessments and prevention of harm) and 5 phases of therapy (0-60 min, 1-6, 6-12, 12-24 and 24-72 h). Clinical features of HHS include marked hypovolaemia, osmolality ≥320 mOsm/kg using [(2×Na+ ) + glucose+urea], marked hyperglycaemia ≥30 mmol/L, without significant ketonaemia (≤3.0 mmol/L), without significant acidosis (pH >7.3) and bicarbonate ≥15 mmol/L. Aims of the therapy are to improve clinical status/replace fluid losses by 24 h, gradual decline in osmolality (3.0-8.0 mOsm/kg/h to minimise the risk of neurological complications), blood glucose 10-15 mmol/L in the first 24 h, prevent hypoglycaemia/hypokalaemia and prevent harm (VTE, osmotic demyelination, fluid overload, foot ulceration). Underlying precipitants must be identified and treated. Interventions include: (1) intravenous (IV) 0.9% sodium chloride to restore circulating volume (fluid losses 100-220 ml/kg, caution in elderly), (2) fixed rate intravenous insulin infusion (FRIII) should be commenced once osmolality stops falling with fluid replacement unless there is ketonaemia (FRIII should be commenced at the same time as IV fluids). (3) glucose infusion (5% or 10%) should be started once glucose <14 mmol/L and (4) potassium replacement according to potassium levels. HHS resolution criteria are: osmolality <300 mOsm/kg, hypovolaemia corrected (urine output ≥0.5 ml/kg/h), cognitive status returned to pre-morbid state and blood glucose <15 mmol/L.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is commonly complicated by mixed acid-base disorders. Therefore, patients with DKA can present with pH > 7.3 or bicarbonate > 18 mmol/L, which falls outside the values defined by the current traditional DKA criteria (pH ≤ 7.3 or bicarbonate ≤ 18 mmol/L). OBJECTIVE We aimed to study the spectrum of acid-base clinical presentations of DKA and the prevalence of diabetic ketoalkalosis. METHODS This study included all adult patients at a single institution admitted in 2018-2020 with diabetes, positive beta-hydroxybutyric acid, and increased anion gap ≥ 16 mmol/L. Mixed acid-base disorders were analyzed to determine the spectrum of presentation of DKA. RESULTS There were 259 encounters identified under the inclusion criteria. Acid-base analysis was available in 227 cases. Traditional acidemic DKA (pH ≤ 7.3), DKA with mild acidemia (7.3 < pH ≤ 7.4), and diabetic ketoalkalosis (pH > 7.4) account for 48.9% (111/227), 27.8% (63/227), and 23.3% (53/227) of cases, respectively. Of the 53 cases with diabetic ketoalkalosis, increased anion gap metabolic acidosis was present in all, and concurrent metabolic alkalosis, respiratory alkalosis, and respiratory acidosis were present in 47.2% (25/53), 81.1% (43/53), and 11.3% (6/53) encounters, respectively. In addition, 34.0% (18/53) of those with diabetic ketoalkalosis were found to have severe ketoacidosis, defined by beta-hydroxybutyric acid ≥ 3 mmol/L. CONCLUSIONS DKA can present as traditional acidemic DKA, DKA with mild acidemia, and diabetic ketoalkalosis. Diabetic ketoalkalosis is a common yet easily overlooked alkalemic variant of DKA associated with mixed acid-base disorders, and a high proportion of these presentations have severe ketoacidosis and thus, require the same treatment as traditional DKA.

Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and the hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state (HHS) represent potentially life-threatening situations in adults. Therefore, rapid comprehensive diagnostic and therapeutic measures with close monitoring of vital and laboratory parameters are required. The treatment of DKA and HHS is essentially the same and replacement of the mostly substantial fluid deficit with several liters of a physiological crystalloid solution is the first and most important step. Serum potassium concentrations need to be carefully monitored to guide its substitution. Regular insulin or rapid acting insulin analogues can be initially administered as an i.v. bolus followed by continuous infusion. Insulin should be switched to subcutaneous injections only after correction of the acidosis and stable glucose concentrations within an acceptable range.

Abstract
Background
Triad of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) comprises of hyperglycemia with serum glucose > 11 mmol/L, high anion gap metabolic acidosis and ketonemia. Hyperlactemia is often noted in patients with DKA. Metformin use is one of the risk factors of hyperlactemia, resulting in high anion gap metabolic acidosis, known as metformin associated lactic acidosis (MALA). This report is of a 60-year-old woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus who presented with combined metformin-associated lactic acidosis MALA and DKA.
Case presentation
A 60-year-old diabetic female presented to the emergency department with complaints of abdominal pain, vomiting and diarrhea. She was on metformin for the last 10 years, but despite compliance to medications, her HbA1c was 14.1. With an aim to improve her glycemic control, linagliptin 5 mg once a day was added 1 month ago. Initial investigations in ED including arterial blood gas analysis revealed metabolic acidosis, ketosis, hyperlactemia, and acute kidney injury. In view of metabolic acidosis and ketosis with elevated blood glucose level, she was diagnosed to have DKA. Compared to isolated DKA, patients with combined MALA and DKA have severe metabolic acidosis, a greater degree of hyperlactatemia but less extensive ketoacidosis. Hence, she was diagnosed to have combined MALA and DKA. She was admitted to intensive care unit and treated with intravenous fluids, insulin infusion, and continuous renal replacement therapy. Her metabolic acidosis, hyperlactemia, and kidney injury resolved and she was discharged well.
Conclusion
This report has shown the importance of rapid diagnosis and management of the rare and challenging diagnosis of combined MALA and DKA. The main goal of therapy is preventing hyperglycemia and ketosis, resolution of metabolic acidosis, and removal of accumulated metformin using intensive therapies like aggressive fluid resuscitation and early initiation of renal replacement therapy. Adjustment of dose of medications is needed to avoid this complication.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is a common, life-threatening complication of type 1 diabetes (T1D) characterized by unregulated ketogenesis caused by relative or absolute insulin deficiency. DKA management requires frequent biochemical monitoring. Plasma ß-hydroxybutyrate (BOHB) has not been included in traditional definitions of DKA resolution. OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to determine a cut-point level of BOHB to define DKA resolution in patients with T1D treated with intravenous (IV) insulin. SUBJECTS We identified patients with T1D receiving IV insulin for DKA treatment at a quaternary children's hospital from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2020 who had plasma measurements of BOHB after DKA onset and whose DKA resolved by traditional laboratory criteria (venous pH (vpH) ≥ 7.3, serum bicarbonate (HCO3 ) ≥ 15 mmol/L, and/or anion gap (AG) ≤ 14 mmol/L). METHODS Associations between plasma BOHB and vpH, HCO3 , and AG were evaluated via scatterplots. Receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves and area under the curve (AUC) were used to evaluate BOHB cut-points to predict DKA resolution. RESULTS We analyzed 403 patients with 471 unique encounters. Plasma BOHB showed the most robust relationship with AG. The ROC curve comparing plasma BOHB to the accepted definition of DKA resolution, AG ≤14 mmol/L, had an AUC of 0.92. A BOHB value of <1.5 mmol/L had a sensitivity of 83% and specificity of 87%; this cut-point correctly classified 86% of the observations. CONCLUSIONS A plasma BOHB value of <1.5 mmol/L can be used to define resolution of DKA.

Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and hyperosmolar hyperglycemia state (HHS) are two life-threatening metabolic complications of diabetes that significantly increase mortality and morbidity. Despite major advances, reaching a uniform consensus regarding the diagnostic criteria and treatment of both conditions has been challenging. A significant overlap between these two extremes of the hyperglycemic crisis spectrum poses an additional hurdle. It has well been noted that a complete biochemical and clinical patient evaluation with timely diagnosis and treatment is vital for symptom resolution. Worldwide, there is a lack of large-scale studies that help define how hyperglycemic crises should be managed. This article will provide a comprehensive review of the pathophysiology, diagnosis, and management of DKA-HHS overlap.

Abstract
Abstract
This study investigated the effects of glucose and osmotic pressure on the proliferation and cell cycle of trophoblast cells. HTR8/SVneo cells were treated with 0 (no glucose), 1 (low glucose), 5 (normal), and 25 mmol/L (high glucose) glucose. In addition, the cells were treated with 5 mmol/L glucose (normal) and 5 mmol/L glucose + 20 mmol/L mannitol (mannitol). The cell morphology and proliferation were determined by microscopy and a cell counting kit-8 assay. The cell cycle and apoptosis were examined by flow cytometry. The cell number was relatively decreased and morphological changes were intermediate in the high-glucose group compared with the low-glucose groups. The proportion of cells in the G2/M phase was higher in the low-glucose group than in the other groups, and it was lower in the G1 phase and higher in the S phase in the high-glucose group than in the other groups. Compared with 24 h, cell proliferative activity was restored to a certain extent after 48 h in the high-glucose group. In summary, the blood glucose concentration might influence the proliferation of trophoblast cells. A high-glucose environment inhibited initial cell proliferation, which could be moderately restored after self-regulation. Furthermore, the proliferation of trophoblasts was not affected by the osmotic pressure.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW In this review, the authors discuss potential clinical applications for continuous ketone monitoring (CKM) in a broad continuum of clinical settings from pre-hospital care and the emergency department to acute inpatient management and post-discharge follow-up. RECENT FINDINGS Though in its early stages, the concept of a novel continuous ketone sensing technology exerts great potential for use in the detection and hospital management of DKA, namely to overcome diagnostic barriers associated with ketoacidosis in patients with diabetes and obtain real-time BOHB levels, which may be useful in understanding both patients' response to treatment and DKA trajectory. Peri- and intra-operative use of CKM technology can potentially be applied in a number of urgent and elective surgical procedures frequently underwent by patients with diabetes and in the observation of patients during peri-operative fasting. In transitional care management, CKM technology could potentially facilitate patients' safe transition through levels of care, following hospital discharge from a DKA episode. This evaluation of the literature presents the potential advantages of adopting CKM and integrating this technology into the care algorithm of patients at risk for ketoacidosis.

Abstract
Bacterial coinfections, which increase the severity of respiratory viral infections, are frequent causes of mortality in influenza pandemics but have not been well characterized in patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Moreover, the association of COVID-19 infection with pulmonary Mycobacterium tuberculosis disease (TB) and concurrent pulmonary fungal infection is not well known. The classification of patients with COVID-19-associated pulmonary aspergillosis (CAPA) using the current definitions for invasive fungal diseases has proven difficult. In this study, we aimed to provide information about three patients with underlying diseases ongoing with COVID-19 and co-infection with pulmonary TB, and with COVID-19-associated pulmonary aspergillosis (CAPA). At the time of hospital admission, each patient presented complications such as decompensated T2DM with diabetic ketoacidosis and/or hypertension. Findings of chest computed tomography and serum galactomannan by radioimmunoassay were useful for classifying them as possible CAPA. One of the three possible CAPA cases was fatal. These three cases are rare and are the first of their kind reported worldwide. The generation of reliable algorithms, early diagnosis, standardization of classification criteria, and the selection of specific and personalized treatments for COVID-19-associated opportunistic infections, including CAPA, are necessary to improve outcomes in these kinds of patients.

An Observational Cohort Study of U.S. Intensive Care Patients. Endocr Pract 2022; 28:875-883. [PMID: 35688365 DOI: 10.1016/j.eprac.2022.06.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/14/2022] [Revised: 05/28/2022] [Accepted: 06/01/2022] [Indexed: 11/18/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE The international guidelines for the treatment of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) advise against rapid changes in osmolarity and glucose; however, the optimal rates of correction are unknown. We aimed to evaluate the rates of change in tonicity and glucose level in intensive care patients with DKA and their relationship with mortality and altered mental status. METHODS This is an observational cohort study using 2 publicly available databases of U.S. intensive care patients (Medical Information Mart for Intensive Care-IV and Electronic Intensive Care Unit), evaluating adults with DKA and associated hyperosmolarity (baseline Osm ≥300 mOsm/L). The primary outcome was hospital mortality. The secondary neurologic outcome used a composite of diagnosed cerebral edema or Glasgow Coma Scale score of ≤12. Multivariable regression models were used to control for confounding factors. RESULTS On adjusted analysis, patients who underwent the most rapid correction of up to approximately 3 mmol/L/hour in tonicity had reduced mortality (n = 2307; odds ratio [OR], 0.21; overall P < .001) and adverse neurologic outcomes (OR, 0.44; P < .001). Faster correction of glucose levels up to 5 mmol/L/hour (90 mg/dL/hour) was associated with improvements in mortality (n = 2361; OR, 0.24; P = .020) and adverse neurologic events (OR, 0.52; P = .046). The number of patients corrected significantly faster than these rates was low. A maximal hourly rate of correction between 2 and 5 mmol/L for tonicity was associated with the lowest mortality rate on adjusted analysis. CONCLUSION Based on large-volume observational data, relatively rapid correction of tonicity and glucose level was associated with lower mortality and more favorable neurologic outcomes. Avoiding a maximum hourly rate of correction of tonicity >5 mmol/L may be advisable.

Abstract
This article summarises the Joint British Diabetes Societies for Inpatient Care guidelines on the management of ketoacidosis; available at https://abcd.care/resource/management-diabetic-ketoacidosis-dka-adults. The document explicitly states that when a person aged 16-18 is under the care of the paediatric team, then the paediatric guideline should be used, and if they are cared for by an adult team, then this guideline should be used. The guideline takes into account new evidence on the use of the previous version of this document, particularly the high prevalence of hypoglycaemia and hypokalaemia, and recommends that when the glucose concentration drops below 14 mmol/L, that de-escalating the insulin infusion rate from 0.1 to 0.05 units/kg/h should be considered. Furthermore, a section has been added to address the recognition that use of sodium glucose co-transporter 2 inhibitors is associated with an increased risk of euglycaemic ketoacidosis. The management of ketoacidosis in people with end-stage renal failure or on dialysis is also mentioned. Finally, the algorithms to illustrate the guideline have been updated.

Abstract
A hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state (HHS) is a life-threatening complication rarely seen in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). However, early diagnosis and proper treatment are vital to reduce the high morbidity and mortality rates associated with HHS. We describe a male patient who presented with polydipsia, polyuria, and a drowsy mental status. His initial biochemistry results demonstrated severe hyperglycemia (1,456 mg/dL), hyperosmolarity of 359 mOsm/kg (effective osmolarity, 323 mOsm/kg), and mild acidosis (venous pH, 7.327). The patient was diagnosed with HHS and T1DM based on the presence of hyperosmolarity, hyperglycemia, and positivity for antiglutamic acid antibodies. Intensive intravenous fluid and regular insulin (0.025 units/kg/hr) were administered. After hydration and insulin treatment, the patient's mental status and serum glucose and sodium levels improved, and no neurological complications were observed. In summary, most cases of HHS are observed in adult patients with type 2 diabetes. However, occurrences in children and adolescents with T1DM have also been reported. Therefore, HHS should be considered in the differential diagnosis of hyperglycemic emergencies.

Abstract
Postmenopausal patients with metastatic breast cancer (mBC) may live years with their disease on therapies with minimal toxicities but they will eventually progress on first-line therapy. For those eligible for second-line therapy, PIK3CA mutation testing is recommended in estrogen receptor–positive, her2-negative disease. If present, alpelisib, a PI3K inhibitor, has been shown to improve progression-free survival. Hyperglycemia is a common side effect of alpelisib. We describe a case of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) necessitating treatment in the intensive care unit (ICU) in a woman with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) started on alpelisib. A 76-year-old female with diet-controlled T2DM and mBC was placed on second-line treatment with alpelisib after progression on first-line therapy. After more than 2 weeks of treatment, the patient presented to the emergency department with nausea and vomiting. Lab results showed DKA and she was admitted to the ICU for further management. This case highlights the need for a multidisciplinary approach to caring for patients who are started on a PI3K inhibitor. We propose 5 guidelines to prevent hyperglycemia in those started on apelisib: (1) strict criteria for initiating alpelisib, (2) understand the steps needed to prevent hyperglycemia, (3) get help from a multidisciplinary team, (4) act immediately when hyperglycemia is noted, and (5) record blood glucose values. By implementing these steps, we hope to prevent critical hyperglycemic episodes in vulnerable patients on alpelisib.

Abstract
The American Diabetes Association (ADA) and the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) convened a writing group to develop a consensus statement on the management of type 1 diabetes in adults. The writing group has considered the rapid development of new treatments and technologies and addressed the following topics: diagnosis, aims of management, schedule of care, diabetes self-management education and support, glucose monitoring, insulin therapy, hypoglycaemia, behavioural considerations, psychosocial care, diabetic ketoacidosis, pancreas and islet transplantation, adjunctive therapies, special populations, inpatient management and future perspectives. Although we discuss the schedule for follow-up examinations and testing, we have not included the evaluation and treatment of the chronic microvascular and macrovascular complications of diabetes as these are well-reviewed and discussed elsewhere. The writing group was aware of both national and international guidance on type 1 diabetes and did not seek to replicate this but rather aimed to highlight the major areas that healthcare professionals should consider when managing adults with type 1 diabetes. Though evidence-based where possible, the recommendations in the report represent the consensus opinion of the authors. Graphical abstract.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Management protocols for pediatric diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) vary considerably among medical centers. The aim of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of 3 different fluid protocols in the management of DKA. METHODS Fluid management protocols with sodium contents of 75, 100, and 154 mEq/L NaCl were compared. In all groups, after the initial rehydration, the protocols differed from each other in terms of the maintenance fluid, which had different rates of infusion and sodium contents. Clinical status and blood glucose levels were checked every hour during the first 12 hours. Biochemical tests were repeated at 2, 6, 12, 24, and 36 hours. RESULTS The medical records of 144 patients were evaluated. Cerebral edema developed in 18% of the patients. The incidence of cerebral edema was lowest in the group that received fluid therapy with a sodium content of 154 mEq/L NaCl at least 4 to 6 hours and had a constant rate of infusion for 48 hours. The patients with cerebral edema had lower initial pH and HCO3 and severe dehydration with higher initial plasma osmolality. There was no significant difference between the groups in terms of the recovery times of blood glucose, pH, HCO3, and the time of transition to subcutaneous insulin therapy. CONCLUSIONS Severity of acidosis and dehydration are associated with the development of cerebral edema. It can be concluded that fluid therapy with higher Na content and a constant maintenance rate may present less risk for the patient with DKA.

Abstract
Alcoholic ketoacidosis (AKA) lacks specific clinical presentation. The results of blood testing commonly show hemoconcentration, elevated β-hydroxybutyrate levels, and acidosis in patients with AKA. Herein, we report a case of AKA accompanied by hyperglycemia and review the related literature. Case report: AKA associated with hyperglycemia is rare, and its pathogenesis is similar to that of diabetic ketoacidosis, thereby making differentiation challenging. Accordingly, AKA is easily misdiagnosed by endocrinologists. The main symptoms of a 37-year-old female included hyperglycemia, elevated β-hydroxybutyrate levels, and metabolic acidosis. Primary clinical presentations were severe nausea and vomiting. The patient initially diagnosed with DKA were eventually confirmed as AKA, who recovered after active therapy with rehydration and correction of hyperglycemia, electrolyte imbalance, and ketosis. This study provides a reference for clinicians to reduce missed diagnosis and the misdiagnosis rates of AKA.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state is a life-threatening complication of diabetes mellitus. Therefore, it is important for emergency physicians to be aware of this unique diagnosis and treatment considerations. OBJECTIVE This manuscript reviews the emergency department evaluation and management of the adult patient with hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state. DISCUSSION Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state is diagnosed by an elevated glucose, elevated serum osmolality, minimal or absent ketones, and a neurologic abnormality, most commonly altered mental status. Treatment involves fluid resuscitation and correction of electrolyte abnormalities. It is important to monitor these patients closely to avoid overcorrection of osmolality, sodium, and other electrolytes. These patients are critically ill and generally require admission to an intensive care unit. CONCLUSIONS Hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state is associated with significant morbidity and mortality. It is important for clinicians to be aware of the current evidence regarding the diagnosis, management, and disposition of these patients.

Nerve influence on the metabolism of type I and type II diabetic corneal stroma: an in vitro study. Sci Rep 2021; 11:13627.

Abstract
Corneal innervation plays a major role in the pathobiology of diabetic corneal disease. However, innervation impact has mainly been investigated in the context of diabetic epitheliopathy and wound healing. Further studies are warranted in the corneal stroma-nerve interactions. This study unravels the nerve influence on corneal stroma metabolism. Corneal stromal cells were isolated from healthy (HCFs) and diabetes mellitus (Type1DM and Type2 DM) donors. Cells were cultured on polycarbonate membranes, stimulated by stable Vitamin C, and stroma-only and stroma-nerve co-cultures were investigated for metabolic alterations. Innervated compared to stroma-only constructs exhibited significant alterations in pyrimidine, glycerol phosphate shuttle, electron transport chain and glycolysis. The most highly altered metabolites between healthy and T1DMs innervated were phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis, and pyrimidine, methionine, aspartate metabolism. Healthy and T2DMs main pathways included aspartate, glycerol phosphate shuttle, electron transport chain, and gluconeogenesis. The metabolic impact on T1DMs and T2DMs was pyrimidine, purine, aspartate, and methionine. Interestingly, the glucose-6-phosphate and oxaloacetate was higher in T2DMs compared to T1DMs. Our in vitro co-culture model allows the examination of key metabolic pathways corresponding to corneal innervation in the diabetic stroma. These novel findings can pave the way for future studies to fully understand the metabolic distinctions in the diabetic cornea.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Differences in biochemical parameters of diabetic ketoacidosis in patients with end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) has not been established. Accordingly, we assessed the relationship between degree of metabolic acidosis and ß-hydroxybutyrate in patients with ESKD (eGFR < 15 mL/min/1.73 m2), moderate renal failure (eGFR 15-60), or preserved renal function (eGFR > 60). METHODS This observational study included adults (18-80 years) with diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA), admitted to Emory University Hospitals between January 1, 2006 to December 31, 2016. DKA and renal stages were confirmed on admission laboratory values. RESULTS Admission bicarbonate levels (13.9 ± 5 vs 13.4 ± 5.3 vs 13.8 ± 4.2 mmol/L, P = 0.7), and pH levels (7.2 ± 0.3 vs 7.2 ± 0.2 vs 7.2 ± 0.2, P = 0.8) were similar among groups. Patients with ESKD had lower mean ß-hydroxybutyrate level (4.3 ± 3.3 vs 5.6 ± 2.9 vs 5.9 ± 2.5 mmol/L, P = 0.01), but higher admission glucose (852 ± 340.4 vs 714.6 ± 253.3 mg/dL vs 518 ± 185.7 mg/dL, P < 0.01), anion gap (23.4 ± 7.6 vs 23 ± 6.9 vs 19.5 ± 4.7 mmol/L, P < 0.01), and osmolality (306 ± 20.6 vs 303.5 ± vs 293.1 ± 3.1mOsm/kg, P < 0.01) compared with patients with moderate renal failure and preserved renal function, respectively. The sensitivity of ß-hydroxybutyrate > 3 mmol/L for diagnosing DKA by bicarbonate level < 15 and <18 mmol/L was 86.9% and 72% in ESKD, 89.3% and 83.7% in moderate renal failure, and 96.2% and 88.3% in preserved renal function. In patients with ESKD, the corresponding ß-hydroxybutyrate with bicarbonate levels < 10, 10-15, <18 mmol/L were 5.5, 3.9, 3.0 mmol/L, respectively. CONCLUSIONS Significant metabolic differences were found among DKA patients with different levels of renal function. In patients with ESKD, a ß-hydroxybutyrate level > 3 mmol/L may assist with confirmation of DKA diagnosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is one of the most serious complications after diabetes poor control, which seriously threatens human life, health, and safety. DKA can rapidly develop within hours or days leading to death. Early evaluation of the prognosis of DKA patients and timely and effective intervention are very important to improve the prognosis of patients. The combination of several variables or characteristics is used to predict the poor prognosis of DKA, which can allocate resources reasonably, which is beneficial to the early classification intervention and clinical treatment of the patients. METHODS For the acquisition of required data of eligible prospective/retrospective cohort study or randomized controlled trials (RCTs), we will search for publications from PubMed, Web of science, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Google scholar, China national knowledge infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang and China Science and Technology Journal Database (VIP). Two independent reviewers will read the full English text of the articles, screened and selected carefully, removing duplication. Then we evaluate the quality and analyses data by Review Manager (V.5.4). Results data will be pooled and meta-analysis will be conducted if there's 2 eligible studies considered. RESULTS This systematic review and meta-analysis will evaluate the value of the prediction models for the prognosis of DKA in the emergency department. CONCLUSIONS This systematic review and meta-analysis will provide clinical basis for predicting the prognosis of DKA. It helps us to understand the value of predictive models in evaluating the early prognosis of DKA. The conclusions drawn from this study may be beneficial to patients, clinicians, and health-related policy makers. STUDY REGISTRATION NUMBER INPLASY202150023.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) treatment guidelines recommend to initiate potassium-replacement when serum potassium (SK) drops within normal range, and to withhold insulin if SK is below normal. Despite strict recommendations, hypokalemia is frequently observed in DKA. METHODS Scientific literature was thoroughly searched to find 1) DKA treatment guidelines, 2) studies reporting hypokalemia in DKA, 3) and literature elaborating mechanisms involved in hypokalemia. RESULTS Acidosis affects SK and its regulators including insulin, catecholamines and aldosterone. Current conceptual framework is an argument to gauge the degree of hypokalemia before it strikes DKA patients utilizing SK level after adjusting it with pH. Suggested approach will reduce hypokalemia risk and its associated complications. The nomogram calculates pH-adjusted potassium and expected potassium loss. It also ranks hypokalemia associated risk, and proposes the potassium-replacement rate over given time period. The differences between current DKA treatment guidelines and proposed strategy are also discussed. Moreover, reasons and risk of hyperkalemia due to early initiation of potassium replacement and remedial actions are debated. CONCLUSION In light of proposed strategy, utilizing the nomogram ensures reduced incidence of hypokalemia in DKA resulting in improved clinical and patient outcomes. Pharmacoeconomic benefits can also be expected when avoiding hypokalemia ensures early discharge.

Abstract
Background Acute kidney injury with acute renal failure is associated with severe diabetic ketoacidosis. This retrospective study was conducted at a single center in China and aimed to compare combined hemodialysis and hemoperfusion (hemodialysis+hemoperfusion) with hemoperfusion alone in 106 patients with diabetic ketoacidosis and acute renal failure. Material/Methods The 106 patients were divided into 2 groups according to different dialysis programs, with 53 cases in each group. Hemodialysis was performed using a single-pass 4008S FX8 HeLix-One hollow fiber hemodialyzer (Fresenius Medical Care, St. Wendel, Germany). Hemoperfusion was performed using HA130 resin adsorbents. Results There were no significant differences in terms of sex, age, duration of diabetes, A1c, pH, and admission blood glucose between the 2 groups (P=0.54, 0.564, 0.53, 0.78, 0.82, 0.51). There were no significant differences in fasting blood glucose, blood urea nitrogen, osmotic pressure, and creatinine between the 2 groups before treatment (P=0.146, 0.978, 0.786, 0.983). After treatment, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine in the dual-treatment group were lower than in the control group, and the osmotic pressure was higher than that in the control group (P=0.000, 0.000, 0.000). The dual-treatment group experienced a lower prevalence of dizziness (5.7%), anemia (7.5%), bone pain (7.5%), hypertension (3.8%), and pruritus (5.7%) than the control group (P<0.05). Conclusions Compared with hemoperfusion alone, hemodialysis+hemoperfusion significantly reduced pruritus and anemia, improved renal function, and was associated with significantly fewer adverse events in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis and acute renal failure.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Diabetic ketoacidosis is an endocrine emergency. A subset of diabetic patients may present with relative euglycemia with acidosis, known as euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis (EDKA), which is often misdiagnosed due to a serum glucose <250 mg/dL. OBJECTIVE This narrative review evaluates the pathogenesis, diagnosis, and management of EDKA for emergency clinicians. DISCUSSION EDKA is comprised of serum glucose <250 mg/dL with an anion gap metabolic acidosis and ketosis. It most commonly occurs in patients with a history of low glucose states such as starvation, chronic liver disease, pregnancy, infection, and alcohol use. Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors, which result in increased urinary glucose excretion, are also associated with EDKA. The underlying pathophysiology involves insulin deficiency or resistance with glucagon release, poor glucose availability, ketone body production, and urinary glucose excretion. Patients typically present with nausea, vomiting, malaise, or fatigue. The physician must determine and treat the underlying etiology of EDKA. Laboratory assessment includes venous blood gas for serum pH, bicarbonate, and ketones. Management includes resuscitation with intravenous fluids, insulin, and glucose, with treatment of the underlying etiology. CONCLUSIONS Clinician knowledge of this condition can improve the evaluation and management of patients with EDKA.

Abstract
Aim An insulin dose of 0.1 U/kg/h recommended by Western guidelines occasionally induces a precipitous decreasing blood glucose in Asian diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). It is known that clinical factors, such as insulin sensitivity, differ between Asians and Americans/Europeans. We investigated how treatment options affect the time to DKA resolution to determine the optimal treatment for Asian DKA patients. Methods This was a retrospective cohort study from a single institution in Japan. A total of 34 adult DKA patients were observed. Baseline characteristics and treatment‐related parameters were compared between patients whose DKA was resolved within 18 h and those in which it was not. Results Significant differences were observed in the initial insulin dose (mean [standard deviation]: 0.053 [0.021] versus 0.031 [0.014] U/kg/h; P = 0.003) and the baseline β‐hydroxybutyrate (7.2 [3.2] versus 9.9 [2.6] mmol/L; P = 0.024) and HCO3− levels (11.2 [4.1] versus 7.7 [3.1] mmol/L; P = 0.014). Multivariable logistic regression analysis revealed that the initial insulin dose was significantly associated with early resolution of DKA and was independent of basal conditions. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis indicated that the optimal cut‐off point for the initial insulin dose was 0.051 U/kg/h. With an initial insulin dose of 0.051 U/kg/h or higher, early resolution of DKA was obtained in 92.9% of patients. Conclusion An initial insulin dose of more than 0.05 U/kg/h provides an early resolution of DKA in Asian patients. Lower insulin doses significantly delay resolution. These results provide practical information for acute phase treatment of Asian DKA.

Abstract
AIM Diabetic ketoacidosis is a hyperglycaemic emergency that is often treated in intensive care units (ICUs) despite having a low mortality and good prognosis. Current risk stratification is based primarily on acidosis, but it has been suggested that hyperosmolarity may also be an important marker of increased severity. Our aim was to evaluate the relationship between raised serum osmolarity and adverse clinical outcomes in ICU admissions for ketoacidosis. METHODS Retrospective review of prospectively collected data for adult admissions with ketoacidosis in the Australian and New Zealand Intensive Care Society Adult Patient Database over a 15-year period (2004-2018). Exclusions were readmissions and records with critical missing data. Serum hyperosmolarity was defined as > 320 mosm/l. The primary outcome was hospital mortality; secondary outcomes were ICU mortality and other adverse clinical events. RESULTS Some 17 379 admissions were included in the study population. People with hyperosmolarity had fourfold increased mortality, a higher incidence of renal failure and need for mechanical ventilation, and prolonged ICU and hospital length of stay. The relationship with mortality remained highly significant even after adjusting for severity of acidosis, hospital type, year of admission, time to ICU, and a modified Australia and New Zealand Risk of Death propensity score. CONCLUSIONS Although adults with ketoacidosis have a good prognosis overall, hyperosmolarity was independently associated with a significantly higher incidence of multiple adverse outcomes including mortality. Whether or not this is directly causal, it may have practical applications to improve risk stratification and identify individuals at risk of adverse outcomes.

Abstract
Background Early treatment of severe hyperglycemia involves large shifts of body fluids that entail a risk of hemodynamic instability. We studied the feasibility of applying a new electrolyte equation that estimates the degree of volume depletion and the distribution of infused 0.9% saline in this setting. Methods The new equation was applied to plasma and urinary concentrations of sodium and chloride measured before and 30 min after a 30-min infusion of 1 L of 0.9% saline on two consecutive days in 14 patients with severe hyperglycemia (mean age 50 years). The extracellular fluid (ECF) volume was also estimated based on the volume dilution kinetics of chloride. Results On day 1, the baseline ECF volume amounted to 11.5 L. The saline infusion expanded the ECF space by 160 mL and the intracellular fluid space by 375 mL. On day 2, the ECF volume was 15.5 L, and twice as much of the infused fluid remained in the ECF space. The chloride dilution kinetics yielded baseline ECF volumes of 11.6 and 15.2 L on day 1 and day 2, respectively. No net uptake of glucose to the cells occurred during the two 1-h measurement periods despite insulin administration in the intervening time period. Conclusions The electrolyte equation was feasible to apply in a group of hyperglycemic patients. The ECF space was 3 L smaller than expected on admission but normal on the second day. Almost half of the infused fluid was distributed intracellularly.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Infusion with 0.9% saline is a mainstay in the treatment of severe hyperglycemia, but the kinetics of the saline volume in this setting has not been studied. METHODS An intravenous infusion of 1 L of 0.9% saline over 30 minutes was given on 31 occasions to 17 patients with hyperglycemia due to poorly controlled diabetes (mean age 51 years). A two-volume kinetic model was fitted to serial data on the hemodilution and urinary excretion, using mixed-effects modeling software. RESULTS Plasma glucose was 36 ± 9 mmol/L on arrival to the hospital. The central volume of distribution (the plasma) was only 2.38 L (mean; 95% confidence interval 1.73-3.04) on the day of admission. Uptake into a remote compartment, believed to be the cells, amounted to 300 mL of the first liter of saline, although only small amounts of insulin were given. Plasma glucose, plasma bicarbonate, urine glucose, and plasma creatinine served as covariates in the kinetic model and mathematically affected the urinary excretion. For example, elimination of the infused fluid tripled from an increase in plasma glucose from 5 to 35 mmol/L and doubled from a reduction in plasma bicarbonate from 24 to 5 mmol/L. CONCLUSIONS The excretion of 0.9% saline was increased depending on the degree of hyperglycemia. The kinetics was characterized by glucose-accelerated diuresis, and an intracellular uptake that occurred at two thirds the urine flow rate. These data could help to determine appropriate volumes and rates of infusion of crystalloids in hyperglycemia.

Abstract
Background Diabetic complications seriously endanger the health of most diabetic patients around the world. Most chemical hypoglycemic agents have adverse effects and are unable to improve the progression of diabetic complications. In recent years, a number of medicinal herbs have become increasingly popular for the treatment of diabetic complications due to their relative safety. Polysaccharides extracted from medicinal herbs with multiple pharmacological activities and low toxicity have been reported to be useful in the treatment of diabetic complications. Methods Primary studies with keywords including polysaccharide and diabetic complications were retrieved from the Web of Science and NCBI databases and were read and analyzed. Results Mushroom polysaccharides were proven to have positive effects on diabetic complications. Conclusions We studied the effects of mushroom polysaccharides on hyperglycemia and as adjuvant therapies for diabetic complications and summarized the applications and limitations of mushroom polysaccharides to better understand their application for the treatment of diabetic complications.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Insulin infusion therapy is commonly used in the hospital setting to manage diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state. Clinical evidence suggests both hypoglycemia and glycemic variability negatively impact patient outcomes. The hypothesis of this study was that moderate-intensity insulin therapy decreases hospital length of stay and prevalence of hypoglycemia in patients with diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state. DESIGN Pre-post study. SETTING Large academic medical center in the United States. PATIENTS Two-hundred one consecutive, nonpregnant, adult patients admitted for diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state between October 2010 and December 2014. INTERVENTIONS High-intensity insulin therapy versus moderate-intensity insulin therapy. High-intensity insulin therapy was designed to rapidly normalize blood glucose levels with bolus doses of insulin and rapid insulin titration. Moderate-intensity insulin therapy was designed to mitigate glycemic variability and hypoglycemia through avoidance of bolus dosing, a liberalized blood glucose target, and gradual insulin titration. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Hospital and ICU length of stay were reduced by 23.6% and 38%, respectively. The relative risk of remaining in the hospital at day 7 (0.51; p = 0.022) and day 14 (0.28; p = 0.044) were significantly reduced by the moderate-intensity insulin therapy strategy. The relative risk of remaining in the ICU at 48 hours was significantly lower in the moderate-intensity insulin therapy cohort (0.34; p = 0.0048). The prevalence (35% vs 1%; p = 0.0003) and relative risk (0.028; p = 0.0004) of hypoglycemia were significantly lower in the moderate-intensity insulin therapy cohort. Glycemic variability decreased by 28.6% (p < 0.0001). There was no difference in the time to anion gap closure (p = 0.123). CONCLUSIONS Moderate-intensity insulin therapy for diabetic ketoacidosis and hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state resulted in improvements in hospital and ICU length of stay, which appeared to be associated with decreased glycemic variability.

Abstract
Breath analysis is used to detect the composition of exhaled gas. As a quick and non-invasive detection method, breath analysis provides deep insights into the progression of various kinds of diseases, especially those with metabolism disorders. Abundant information on volatile compounds in diabetic patients has been studied in numerous articles in the literature. However, exhaled gas in diabetic patients can be altered by various complications. So far, little attention has been paid to this alteration. In our paper, we found that under air pollution conditions, diabetic patients exhale more nitric oxide. Diabetic patients with heart failure exhale more acetone than those without heart failure. After 13C-labeled glucose intake, patients infected with Helicobacter pylori exhaled more 13C and less 18O than those without infection. Exhalation with chronic kidney disease changes volatile organic compounds on a large scale. Diabetic patients with ketoacidosis exhale more acetone than those without ketoacidosis. Some specific volatile organic compounds also emanate from diabetic feet. By monitoring breath frequency, diabetic patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome exhibit a unique breath pattern and rhythm as compared with other diabetic patients, and sleep apnea is prevalent among diabetic patients. In addition to clinical findings, we analyzed the underlying mechanisms at the levels of molecules, cells and whole bodies, and provided suggestions for further studies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Rhabdomyolysis is considered by some studies as a rare complication of a common disorder of diabetic ketoacidosis, while others consider it as not so uncommon. The mechanism is still not clear but can be attributed to a number of factors like acidosis, hyperglycemia and electrolyte disturbances especially hypophosphatemia and hypokalaemia. Missing it may lead to more serious complications and may prolong and/or complicate full recovery of diabetic ketoacidosis. AIM The aim of this study was to measure the incidence of rhabdomyolysis among patients presented with diabetic ketoacidosis in the emergency department of Baghdad Teaching hospital, its relation to the severity of diabetic ketoacidosis and the associated electrolytes disturbances. PATIENTS AND METHODS This is a cross sectional study carried out in the emergency department of Baghdad teaching hospital/Iraq; where 43 patients with type1 diabetes presenting with diabetic ketoacidosis were included. Diabetic ketoacidosis was classified into mild, moderate and severe, and the incidence of rhabdomyolysis was calculated accordingly. Full blood investigations, urinary ketones and arterial blood gasses were done. RESULTS Rhabdomyolysis was found in 3 (6.98%) patients with more severe acidosis and urinary ketones in the setting of moderate and severe diabetic ketoacidosis. Statistically significant finding was observed with the duration of diabetes, higher serum creatinine, higher serum potassium, higher serum chloride, severe acidosis and urinary ketones. CONCLUSIONS Rhabdomyolysis incidence in this study was 6.98% of patients with more severe acidosis, urinary ketones in the setting of moderate to severe diabetic ketoacidosis and with longer duration of diabetes.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The object of this systematic review is to determine the effectiveness of computerized insulin titration protocols compared to manual insulin titration protocols for glycemic control in hospitalized adult patients. INTRODUCTION Hyperglycemia is common during acute illness, and current recommendations for patients with altered glucose metabolism is the use of intravenous insulin therapy. Due to the narrow therapeutic index of insulin, euglycemia is difficult to achieve and requires frequent dose titrations and blood glucose checks. Dose titrations can be accomplished through the use of manual or computerized insulin titration protocols. INCLUSION CRITERIA This review will consider studies that compare manual and computerized insulin titration protocols for hospitalized adult patients requiring intravenous insulin therapy for hyperglycemia. Studies must have considered one or more glycemic control outcomes. METHODS This systematic review will use the JBI methodology for evidence of effectiveness. The search will be limited to studies published in English from 1984, as this was the approximate year that the first pilot study of a computerized titration protocol was implemented. The databases to be searched include: Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials, CINAHL, PubMed, Embase, Health Technology Assessments and Ovid Healthstar. The trial registers to be searched include: US National Library of Medicine (ClinicalTrials.gov). The search for unpublished studies will include ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, and MedNar. Retrieval of full-text studies, assessment of methodological quality and data extraction will be performed independently by two reviewers. Meta-analysis will be performed if possible, and a Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development and Evaluation (GRADE) Summary of Findings presented. SYSTEMATIC REVIEW REGISTRATION NUMBER PROSPERO CRD42019142776.
