If no insulin is infused to a Type 1 Diabetic Patient and the patient takes normal diet of breakfast, lunch and dinner, then what will be the maximum blood glucose concentration in plasma (mg/dL).
If insulin dose is more and the patient undegoes fasting, up to what level the plasma glucose concentration may drop?
Anirudh,
You will be better off by putting a little effort in reviewing literature yourself rather than someone else spoon-feeding you. These days, it doesn't necessarily even involve a trip to a library.
When you have done that, post what you found - if you are way off, I'll be happy to add what I know.
Best,
Are you planning to kill somebody. I completely agree with Tausif Alam. Since you are on Research Gate, you should try to get answer yourself. Otherwise whatever literature searched, you may nor satisfied, either one.
It is unethical practice to withdraw insulin in Type I DM. There is no range but patient will go in severe hyperglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, coma and not monitored promptly he/she may not survive.
If you infuse insulin & keeping patient on fast without oral or IV, glucose level will drop to ZERO. If no glucose available, BMR will drop to ZERO, no ATP formation, no energy, all vital organs will shutdown & ultimate death.
Warning: Do not try all above, it is unethical.
@Mr. T. Alam
Thanks for your advice. I followed up your instruction and gained some vital information from literature review.
@ Krishnan S Yadav
Actually my question was put in a improper fashion. The thing I want to know was that what is the variation of glucose and insulin in a Type 1 Diabetic patient in real life scenario. I am no where experimenting all these, just I wanted to know. so despite of insulting answers you would have added some of your knowledge. It is an universal truth that knowledge grows when it is shared. So providing some answers to a question (how silly it may appear) will definitely add some sense to an non-sense question. Ultimately some one is gaining something out of it.
