The pathophysiologic mechanisms underlying benign convulsions with mild gastroenteritis (CwG) in children remain unclear. We investigated the incidence of ketosis in CwG and whether this is related to seizures.This retrospective study included children aged In clinical practice, seizures independent of hypoglycemia are observed in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) more frequently than expected by chance, suggesting a link. However, seizures during management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) have generally been considered a bad prognostic
We report an unusual case of hypophosphatemia-related seizure in a child with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). A 1-year-old type 1 diabetic boy with hyperglycemia, ketoacidosis, and dehydration was admitted to the pediatric intensive care unit. After having received fluid replacement using isotonic
Central nervous system oxygen toxicity (CNS-OT) seizures occur with little or no warning, and no effective mitigation strategy has been identified. Ketogenic diets (KD) elevate blood ketones and have successfully treated drug-resistant epilepsy. We hypothesized that a ketone ester given orally as
OBJECTIVE
Fat is the major component of the ketogenic diet (KD), yet no studies have examined whether the type of fat used in the diet can be optimized to provide additional benefits. The purpose of the present experiments was to compare the efficiency of different fats in inducing ketosis and
BACKGROUND
Non-ketotic hyperglycemia (NKHG) may increase the probability of seizures and movement disorders.
METHODS
We describe a series of 14 elders admitted for seizures and movement disorders linked to NKHG.
RESULTS
Twelve patients developed motor seizures and two others movement disorders.
Metabolic effects of a new ketogenic regimen in which ketonemia is induced by feeding of medium chain triglycerides (MCT) are described, and comparisons are made with effects of the standard high fat ketogenic diet. Eighteen children maintained on the MCT diet for 3 months to 4 years failed to show
