2. 1. On Severe Hypoglycaemia in Children and Adolescents with Type 1 Diabetes

   Author : Sam Nordfeldt; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : Severe hypoglycaemia; SH; diabetes; insulin; HbA1c; aethiology; MEDICINE; MEDICIN;

   Abstract : Background: For people with type 1 diabetes, there is no alternative to treatment with insulin. The major side effect of insulin is severe hypoglycaemia (SH), when the patient needs help or even becomes unconscious. READ MORE

4. 2. Human glycogen synthase genes. Role in insulin resistance and hypoglycaemia

   Author : Marju Orho-Melander; diabetes och endokrinologi Genomik; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; mutation; GYS2; GYS1; glycogen synthase; glycogen; insulin resistance; hypoglycaemia; liver glycogen synthase deficiency; glycogen storage disease type 0; Type 2 diabetes; metabolic syndrome; expression; chromosome 19; 19q13.3; Endocrinology; secreting systems; diabetology; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi;

   Abstract : Effective insulin-stimulated storage of excess glucose after a meal, and its rapid mobilisation in the fasting state provide basis of glucose homeostasis. Glycogen is the macromolecular storage form of glucose and glycogen synthase (GS) is the rate-limiting enzyme in glycogen synthesis. Skeletal muscle and liver are the major depots of glycogen.

5. 3. Hypoglycaemia: Studies on central and peripheral nerve function

   Author : Bodil Eckert; Lund Medicin; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Endocrinology; severe retinopathy.; QT interval; Type 1 diabetes; cerebral blood flow; secreting systems; diabetology; Endokrinologi; sekretion; diabetologi;

   Abstract : Hypoglycaemia is an acute complication to insulin-treatment in type 1 diabetes mellitus, which affects many physiological parameters, deteriorates the cognitive function, and may lead to death. The aim of this thesis was to study nerve function, cognitive function and cerebral blood flow during and after hypoglycaemia in healthy subjects and to study certain aspects of a fall in blood glucose in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

6. 4. On the Impact of Bariatric Surgery on Glucose Homeostasis

   Author : Niclas Abrahamsson; Britt Eden Engström; Jan Eriksson; Magnus Sundbom; Neil Gerard Docherty; Uppsala universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Hypoglycaemia; Gastric Bypass surgery; Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch DS ; NT-ProBNP; Continuous glucose measuring system CGMS ; GLP-1-analog; glucose variability; MAGE; CONGA; counter regulation; incretin; Heart Rate Variability; Endocrinology and Diabetology; Endokrinologi och Diabetologi;

   Abstract : Obesity has grown to epidemic proportions, and in lack of efficient life-style and medical treatments, the bariatric surgeries are performed in rising numbers. The most common surgery is the Gastric Bypass (GBP) surgery, with the Biliopancreatic diversion with duodenal switch (DS) as an option for the most extreme cases with a BMI>50 kg/m2. READ MORE

7. 5. Peripheral Hypoglycaemic Neuropathy in Type 1 Diabetic Rats : Morphologic and Metabolic Studies

   Author : Reza Jamali; Simin Mohseni; Claes Hildebrand; Håkan Aldskugius; Linköpings universitet; []
   Keywords : MEDICIN OCH HÄLSOVETENSKAP; MEDICAL AND HEALTH SCIENCES; Diabetes Mellitu; Hypoglycaemia; Neuropathy; Morphology; Microdialysis; Glucose level; Neurobiology; Neurobiologi;

   Abstract : Hyperglycaemia caused by insulin deficiency is believed to play a major role in the de-velopment of neuropathy in diabetic patients. The clinical and pathological features of diabetic neuropathy vary considerably, although sensory and autonomic dysfunctions are the most common characteristics. READ MORE
