Low blood sugar levels, often causing confusion, light headedness and irritability.
abnormally low blood sugar usually resulting from excessive insulin or a poor diet
An abnormally low level of glucose in the blood.
An abnormal decrease of sugar in the blood.
A condition that occurs when the blood glucose concentration is lower than normal, usually less than 3.5 mmol/l (63 mg/dl) in dogs and 3 mmol/l (54 mg/dl) in cats. Signs include hunger, nervousness, shakiness, and sleepiness. If left untreated, hypoglycemia may lead to unconsciousness. Hypoglycemia is treated by consuming a carbohydrate-rich food such as a glucose tablet or juice.
Hypoglycaemia (or ÔhypoÕ) is the medical term for when the level of glucose in the blood falls too low, usually under 4 mmol/l. Treatment is very simple and requires taking some fast acting carbohydrate, such as a sugary drink, followed by a starchy snack such as a sandwich. Left untreated, hypoglycaemia will eventually result in the person becoming unconscious.
Blood glucose levels lower than the desirable range. Hyperlipidemia Too high a level of fats (lipids) in the blood.
LOW blood glucose level - see Hypo.
A common occurrence in diabetics, this is low blood sugar levels, resulting in fatigue.
Decreased glucose level in the blood.
a deficiency of sugar in the blood.
an abnormally low concentration of glucose in the circulating blood, ie, less than the minimum normal range.
hypoglycemia -blood glucose less than the lower value of normal (70-110 mg/dl [3.9-6.1 mmol/L in SI reference units]). Glucose levels of 40 and below constitute severe hypoglycemia, a life-threatening emergency. Hypoglycemia is common in malaria, as malaria parasitized red blood cells utilize glucose 75 times faster than uninfected cells. In addition, treatment with quinine and quinidine stimulate insulin secretion, reducing blood glucose. mported malaria - A case of malaria that is brought into an area by someone who has become infected somewhere else. The person could be either a tourist or immigrant.
A condition in which there is a low level of blood glucose in the blood that deprives muscles, cells and brain with the energy needed to function. Hypoglycaemia can be triggered by taking too much insulin, by not following the prescribed meal schedule or by participating in unusually strenuous or prolonged exercise. Hypoglycaemic symptoms may include profuse sweating, a rapid heartbeat, feelings of panic, hunger or weakness, dizziness, trembling, blurred vision, slurred speech or a headache.• Major event: Hypoglycaemic incidences that require medical assistance/intervention, such as an injection of glucose.• Minor event: Hypoglycaemic incidences that can be managed by the individual person by eating something sweet or drinking a small amount of fruit juice.• Nocturnal event: Hypoglycaemic incidences that occur between midnight and 6.00 am.
Abnormally low blood sugar levels. Symptoms in adults (which may indicate diabetes) include jitteriness, rapid breathing, and lethargy. In newborns, hypoglycaemia can be caused by prematurity or being small for gestational age; it can also indicate infection, asphyxia, or congenital heart disease.
a low level of blood glucose. Associated with an elevated level of insulin in insulin-dependent diabetics, it can lead to performance changes, but is not always symptomatic.
too low a level of glucose (sugar) in the blood. This occurs when a person with diabetes has injected too much insulin, eaten too little food, or has exercised without extra food. A person with hypoglycemia may feel nervous, shaky, weak, or sweaty, and have a headache, blurred vision, and hunger. Taking small amounts of sugar, sweet juice, or food with sugar will usually help the person feel better within 10-15 minutes
Low blood plasma sugar level
a deficiency of glucose in the bloodstream which leads to progressive loss of consciousness. A severe hypo would mean that the person with diabetes was completely unaware of what was happening. Insulatard: a medium duration insulin typically administered at night and sometimes twice daily.
Low blood glucose concentration
Low blood glucose. Hypoglycaemia can occur in malaria. In addition, treatment with quinine and quinidine stimulate insulin secretion, reducing blood glucose.
Greek for 'too little sugar in the blood' Humans as organisms
abnormally low levels of glucose in the blood
Some trait theorists believe that biochemical conditions, including both those that are genetically predetermined and those acquired through diet and environment, control and influence antisocial behaviour; in this case criminality is influenced by a deficiency of sugar.
