ACID BASE IMBALENCE INTRODUCTION The body normally maintains a steady balance between acids‚ produced during metabolism and bases that neutralize and promote the excretion of the acids.Many health problems may lead to acid base imbalance.Patients with Diabetis mellitus ‚COPD‚and kidney disease frequently frequently develop acid base imbalences. Vomiting and diarrhea may also cause acid base imbalance.The kidneys are an essential buffer system for

Abstract Background Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are known mediators of cellular damage in multiple diseases including diabetic complications. Despite its importance‚ no comprehensive database is currently available for the genes associated with ROS. Methods We present ROS- and diabetes-related targets (genes/proteins) collected from the biomedical literature through a text mining technology. A web-based literature mining tool‚ SciMiner‚ was applied to 1‚154 biomedical papers indexed with

diabetes. 2 Explain why insulin injections are not the course of treatment for all diabetics. Type 2 Diabetics cannot do anything with insulin already produced; they would not be able to use the extra insulin. Whereas Type 1 Diabetics need the insulin because their body does not produce it. Also‚ Type 2 Diabetes can be reversed. People with type 1 diabetes must have injections of insulin every day. Each diabetic patient needs an exact dose of insulin‚ calculated especially for him or her. An overdose

Then they administered the frozen dried plant cells to mice that were five-week old diabetic in the form of powder for about a period of 8 weeks. This experiment

of research on how factors such as sex‚ age‚ obesity and degree of glycemic control effect gluconeogenesis. The experiment was conducted with a control group of individuals that were not considered obese or diabetic. The investigators found that plasma glucagon levels were higher in diabetic participants and these results were positively related to endogenous glucose output. They also found that obese patients had higher levels of plasma insulin that was not related to fluxes in glucose. Research
