The role of ketoacidotic conditions in the occurrence of diabetic angiopathies and influence of the latter on the occurrence and development of ketoacidosis in patients with diabetic vascular lesions was studied. Altogether 1152 diabetes mellitus patients were examined. It was established that abrupt fluctuations of glycemia in labile forms of diabetes with a tendency toward ketoacidosis resulted in a more noticeable vascular lesion. Diabetic nephropathy was shown to cause the development of ketoacidotic conditions as was demonstrated by a higher frequency of ketoacidosis in persons with diabetic nephropathies. The period of disease made a decisive effect on the gravity and progression of vascular lesion in diabetes mellitus.

Methylmalonic acidemia (MMA) is a genetic condition affecting cobalamin metabolism causing elevated serum and urine methylmalonic acid without B12 deficiency. MMA presents with ketoacidotic hyperammonemic coma in newborns and can result in neonatal death or severe neurological disability. Rarely, this diagnosis is missed, or patients do not present until later in life.

Introduction: Mucormycosis is an opportunistic mycosis common in poorly-controlled insulin dependent diabetic patients particularly with ketoacidosis. Fungal osteomyelitis is a life-threatening condition affectation of the nose and paranasal sinuses within the orofacial region.

Presentation Of Case: We present a 63-year-old diabetic male patient with maxillary mucormycotic osteomyelitis threatening his better seeing eye and review the clinical symptoms, relevant imaging, and management.

Propionic aciduria (PA) is caused by deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme propionyl-CoA carboxylase (PCC). Due to inefficient propionate catabolism patients are endangered by life-threatening ketoacidotic crisis. Protein and amino acid restriction are major therapeutic pillars.

Characteristics of post-mortem beta-hydroxybutyrate-positivet cases - A retrospective study on age, sex and BMI in 1407 forensic autopsies.

Forensic Sci Int

August 2021

Division of Drug Research, Department of Biomedical and Clinical Sciences, Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences, Linköping University, Linköping, Sweden; Department of Forensic Genetics and Forensic Toxicology, National Board of Forensic Medicine, Linköping, Sweden. Electronic address:

Background: Post-mortem biochemistry, including the analysis of beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB), is increasingly employed in forensic medicine, especially in conditions such as diabetes and chronic alcoholism. However, not much is known about the associations between age, body mass index (BMI), and sex and BHB concentrations in ketoacidotic conditions.

Aim: To retrospectively study the association between age, BMI and sex in several conditions, such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), alcoholic ketoacidosis (AKA), and elevated post-mortem BHB concentrations.
