Case Report: Lactic Acidosis and Hypoglycemia: Experimental Evidence to Show Lactate Prevents Insulin Induced Seizures in Rats
A 52-year-old man with lactic acidosis and severe hypoglycemia was fully conscious and alert with a blood sugar of 8mgs%. We believe normal level of consciousness was maintained due to the presence of hyperlactatemia. We show experimental evidence to suggest that lactate prevents the development of...

Zusammenfassung: | A 52-year-old man with lactic acidosis and severe hypoglycemia was fully conscious and alert with a blood sugar of 8mgs%. We believe normal level of consciousness was maintained due to the presence of hyperlactatemia. We show experimental evidence to suggest that lactate prevents the development of insulin-induced seizures in rats. |
