[Study of the changes in carbohydrate metabolism as a diagnostic test of acute hypothalamic syndrome in severe cranio-cerebral trauma].

A total of 66 patients who suffered a severe isolated or concomitant craniocerebral injury were examined. Additionally, a study was made of some indicators of carbohydrate metabolism in the general circulatory bed, acid-base state of the arterialized blood, partial oxygen tension and hemoglobin saturation with arterial blood oxygen. In 10 patients, the same indicators were compared to EEG alterations and the pulse constituent of the finger photoplethysmogram.
