SummaryIn order to study the acute and prolonged effects of hypoglycemia on the hemostatic and fibrinolytic system we measured prothrombin fragment (F1+2), thrombin-antithrombin III complex (TAT), platelet factor 4 (PF4), β-thromboglobulin (âTG), factor VIII antigen (F VIII antigen), D-dimer, tissue-type plasminogen activator (t-PA) antigen, and plasminogen activator inhibitor (PAI-1) in 22 patients during insulin tolerance test. F1+2 and TAT increased significantly 15 and 90 minutes after administration of insulin, as did PF4 and âTG. At 4 and 24 hours, these parameters were not different from baseline. Factor VIII antigen was not significantly altered. D-dimer concentration did not change. However, the D-dimer/TAT ratio significantly decreased at 15 and 90 minutes but increased markedly above baseline at 4 and 24 hours. t-PA antigen was also found to be elevated at 15 and 90 minutes but had returned to baseline at 4 and 24 hours. PAI-1 concentration did not change. We conclude from these data that both coagulation and fibrinolysis are activated in the short-term response to acute insulin-induced hypoglycemia, followed by a prolonged activation of fibrinolysis. Our study may explain why patients undergoing insulin tolerance test, despite marked clotting and platelet activation, almost never develop thromboembolic complications.

The Mathematical Model

Combined with the contents of the study-PSS low-pass link parameter identification. Least-squares method is selected. Using least-square method for PSS low-pass link mathematical model are also deduced. For the results, because of the mathematical model is solving nonlinear equations, cannot used by the Newton method directly. So we choose to use Newton iterations, with this feature, choose to use MATLAB software to solve the equation. Identification of the use of MATLAB software lags after the PSS parameters obtained recognition results compared with national standards, identifying and verifying the practicability.

ABSTRACT Congenital stenosis of the aqueduct of Sylvius is reported to be associated with sella turcia enlargement and clinical and laboratory abnormalities of the hypothalamic-pituitary-target-organ axis. It is a surgically reversible lesion. In the present report, 3 female patients with this lesion were studied with tests of basal endocrine function, as well as insulin tolerance tests, response to metyrapone and determination of circadian periodicity of plasma cortisol levels. In one patient all testing was normal and no surgery was performed. In 2 other patients the insulin tolerance test revealed either abnormal cortisol or growth hormone responses and in one patient urinary gonadotrophins were absent. All tests became normal post-operatively although in one instance not completely so until 5 years after surgery.

And Gender

The aim of this study is to assess whether gender and body mass index (BMI) should be considered in developing thresholds to define GH deficiency, using GH responses to GHRH + arginine (ARG) stimulation and insulin tolerance test (ITT). Thirty-nine healthy subjects (19 males, 20 females; ages 21–50 yr) underwent GHRH + ARG, and another 27 subjects (19 males, 8 females; ages 20–49 yr) underwent ITT. Peak GH response was significantly higher (P = 0.005) after GHRH + ARG than with ITT, and this difference could not be explained by age, gender, or BMI. Peak GH response was negatively correlated with BMI in both tests (GHRH + ARG, r = −0.76; and ITT, r = −0.65). Peak GH response to GHRH + ARG was higher in females than males (P = 0.004; ratio = 2.4), but it was attenuated after eliminating the influence of BMI (P = 0.13; ratio = 1.6). No significant gender differences were found in peak GH responses to ITT, which could be due to the smaller number of female subjects studied. GH response to GHRH + ARG and ITT stimulation is sensitive to BMI differences and less so to gender differences. A higher BMI is associated with a depressed GH response to both stimulation tests. BMI should therefore be considered as a factor when defining the diagnostic cut-off points in the assessment of GH deficiency, whereas whether gender should be likewise used is inconclusive from this study.
