... Glucose Hypoglycemia Breastfeeding Systematic review NIH Following birth, neonates must rapidly switch from the continuous supply of glucose from the placenta to metabolic independence. Delay in this transition can result in hypoglycaemia. Persistent or severe hypoglycaemia...

... bacterial and viral meningitis were reliably excluded. Results: We identified seven studies investigating 270 term and 96 preterm neonates. There were minimal differences between preterm and term neonates in the CSF white blood cell (WBC) count and glucose concentration. In contrast, the CSF neutrophil...

..., Embase, Cochrane Library, CINAHL, and Scopus. Selected studies included infants with a blood glucose concentration >150 mg/dL (8.3 mmol/L) during the first 28 days of life, a gestational age (GA) <32 weeks, and/or a birth weight <1,500 g and longitudinal data on growth, metabolic health...

... and cultured for 3 days. During the initial 2 days cultures were performed in the presence of 5 or 15 mmol/l glucose. During this initial period, culture at 5 mmol/l glucose was carried out in the presence or absence of either 10 mmol/l nicotinamide (NA) or 5 or 100 ng/ml nerve growth factor (NGF). After...

... asphyxia on the regulation of I and glucose (G) metabolism in plasma and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) in newborn piglets. The I concentrations were measured by radioimmunoassay, while the G levels were analyzed by the G oxidase method during three phases (basal, critical, recovery) of bilateral pneumothorax...

...Marie Nagaya; Eric P. Widmaier Soon after birth, mammals are often confronted with the challenges of hypoxia, hypothermia and hypoglycemia. The incidence of the latter in the human population is roughly 2-20% of all live births. We characterized the glucose profile over the first 24 h of postnatal...

...Javier Casado; Keith Snell Changes in the net balance of glucose and lactate across the intestine and liver have been studied in 15-day-old suckling and 25-day-old weaned rats over 60 min following an oral glucose load. The intestinal balance of suckling rats showed a net release of glucose...

...Carol D. Siegel; John W. Sparks; Frederick C. Battaglia Galactose and glucose concentrations were measured in peripheral blood in relation to ad libitum milk feeding in 11 healthy near-term infants. Galactose and glucose concentrations before feeding averaged 1.06 ± 0.21 and 60.3 ± 3.2 mg/dl...

...P.A. Flecknell; W. Wootton Cerebral blood flow and cerebral metabolism were studied in 8 fasting neonatal piglets. Cerebral blood flow was not significantly different (p > 0.1) at 24 h (75.0 ± 30.7 ml/min/100 g) and 48 h (74.2 ± 32.3 ml/min/100 g) of age. Blood glucose concentration was lower...

...K.L. Tan; L.Y. Wong The effect of citrate phosphate dextrose (CPD) blood transfusion on the acid base, glucose and electrolyte status of VLBW infants was studied in infants aged 1–7, 8–20 and > 20 days; a 4th group composed of infants > 20 days subjected to a second transfusion was also...

...-glucose in the fetal circulation. Little 14 C-lactate or glucose appears in the maternal circulation, supporting fetal production of glucose from lactate. Maternal glucose infusion seems to inhibit fetal gluconeogenesis. The mean plateau in percent disintegrations per minute of glucose compared to lactate...

...P.A. Flecknell; R. Wootton; J.P. Royston; M. John Disturbances of glucose homeostasis are a common clinical problem in low birth weight human infants. Previous studies have demonstrated that the intrauterine growth-retarded piglet is a suitable animal model for the study of such problems...

...Raul Artal; Nam Doug; Paul Wu; Mark A. Sperling Previous studies have demonstrated impaired perinatal adaptation of glucose homeostasis with inappropriately low levels of catecholamines and glucagon in newborn infants born to diabetic mothers. To investigate whether these neonatal changes...

...Alain Ktorza; Marie-Thérèse Bihoreau; Nurjahan Nurjhan; Luc Picon; Jean Girard Insulin and glucagon are detected in the plasma of most species early in gestation. In the fetus at term, insulin and glucagon secretion can be modified by long-term changes in glucose concentration...

...Sandra M. Marquis; Joseph Leichter; Melvin Lee To evaluate the effect of chronic maternal alcohol consumption on plasma amino acid and glucose levels in both the fetus and the mother, female Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into 3 dietary treatment groups. Group 1 (alcohol) was fed ad libitum...

...J. Přibylová; J. Kozlová The changes of insulin, blood sugars, lactate and free fatty acid levels were studied in 12 newborns of diabetic mothers and in 21 newborns of healthy mothers in the course of intravenous infusions of glucose and galactose at a dose of 0.5 g·kg –– 1 ·h ––1 . During glucose...

...C. Watts; K. Gain; P.L. Sandin Changes in blood glucose and plasma immunoreactive insulin (IRI) during the last 6 days of gestation of the fetal rat were studied. Blood glucose decreased from day 17 to day 19 to 43 mg/l00 ml and subsequently rose towards adult levels just before birth. The ratio...

...Lynne L. Levitsky; John B. Paton; David E. Fisher; Clarence W. de Lannoy Veno-arterial differences for energy substrates across hindlimb tissues were measured in baboon infants at birth and at 6 weeks. Hindlimb glucose uptake was 2.36 ± 0.80 μM/min in the newly born baboons and 1.81 ± 0.56 μM/min...

... dilution in the mother’s circulation. When U- 14 C- D -glucose or U- 14 C- L -alanine was infused, radioactivity in fetal blood from the left uterine horn was 3 or 8 times higher respectively than in the right horn and 2 or 6 times higher than in maternal blood. When the infusion was carried out with 125 I...

...Anthony F. Philipps; Joseph W. Dubin; John R. Raye Standardized primed continuous glucose infusions were performed in 13 newborn lambs between 4 h and 2 weeks of age to assess the timing of development of glucose-induced early-phase insulin release. Lambs of less than 6 h of age behaved similar...
