Abstract

Several observers have directed attention to the fact that insulin hypoglycemia may precipitate symptoms and signs of serious disturb- ance in the cardiovascular system.Gigon (1), in 1923, reported that a patient with diabetes mellitus had died from myocardial failure after the third dose of insulin.Reinwein (2) observed two patients with diabetes mellitus and circulatory insufficiency in whom the administra- tion of insulin caused a decided increase in the degree of congestive failure.Joslin (3) and Blotner (4) reported cases in which cardiac infarction developed shortly after the administration of insulin, and von Noorden and Isaac (5) observed several patients with coronary artery disease in whom insulin hypoglycemia apparently was the cause of death.Several instances have been recorded in which insulin hypoglycemia precipitated typical attacks of angina pectoris (6, 7, 8).Further evidence of altered cardiac physiology during insulin hypoglycemia is afforded by the electrocardiographic studies of Middleton and Oatway (9) and others.The changes observed consisted of diminished amplitude or inversion of the T-wave.Although the effect of insulin shock on the pulse rate and arterial blood pressure of man has been studied by several investigators (10, 11, 12, 13), but little attention has been paid to the effect of the hypoglycemic state on the minute volume output of the heart.In the only reported measurements, Lauter and Baumann (13), using the ethyl iodide method of Henderson and Haggard ( 14), recorded an increased circulatory minute volume during hypoglycemia in five

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
