Both hyperglycemia and hyperketonemia will induce osmotic diuresis, which leads to dehydration. Clinical diagnosis is based on the finding of dehydration along with high capillary glucose levels with ...

1 Electrolyte disturbances are common in patients with diabetes and may be the result of an altered distribution of electrolytes related to hyperglycemia-induced osmotic fluid shifts or of total ...

Because of hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis and natriuresis, patients with diabetic ketoacidosis usually present with a marked contraction of the extracellular fluid volume. This factor ...

If steroid-induced insulin resistance causes hyperglycemia, the resulting osmotic diuresis from glucosuria can be confused with diabetes insipidus. Urine and blood glucose should, therefore ...

In addition, they should help prevent subacute complications such as infections, weight loss and osmotic diuresis. In summary, many chemotherapy agents and corticosteroids can cause hyperglycemia ...

It is characterized by a severe rise in blood sugar or hyperglycemia along with dehydration ... a process termed osmotic diuresis. During osmotic diuresis, water and solutes such as potassium ...

the initial hyperosmolality produced by severe hyperglycemia causes an osmotic shift of water from intracellular fluid to extracellular fluid, which in turn produces a dilutional decrease in serum ...

Serum sodium concentration is an unreliable measure of the degree of extracellular fluid contraction as it is significantly influenced by hyperglycemia causing an osmotic shift; water movement ...

Multiple retrospective studies have identified neonatal hyperglycemia as a risk for developing ROP. However, in the absence of any reported prospective study, it is not clear whether hyperglycemia ...
