   Nov 18, 2023 · Type 2 diabetes in children is a chronic disease that affects the way your child's body processes sugar (glucose) for fuel. Without treatment, the disorder causes sugar to build up in the bloodstream, which can lead to serious long-term consequences. Type 2 diabetes occurs more commonly in adults. In fact, it used to be called adult-onset diabetes.

   Aug 2, 2021 · Abstract. Hypoglycemia is the result of defects/impairment in glucose homeostasis. The main etiological causes are metabolic and/or endocrine and/or other congenital disorders. Despite hypoglycemia is one of the most common emergencies in neonatal age and childhood, no consensus on the definition and diagnostic work-up exists yet.

   Aug 22, 2023 · Hypoglycemia is the biochemical finding of a plasma glucose lower than normal for age. Hypoglycemia itself is not a diagnosis but rather reflects an underlying perturbation in metabolic adaptation, which may be as simple as prolonged fasting in a child with an intercurrent illness, or a complex genetic disorder.

   Apr 16, 2024 · Overview. Hypothermia is a condition that occurs when core body temperature drops below 95 degrees Fahrenheit (35 degrees Celsius). It is a medical emergency. In hypothermia (hi-poe-THUR-me-uh), the body loses heat faster than it can produce heat, causing a dangerously low body temperature.

   Diabetes in Children. Diabetes mellitus is a chronic medical condition that causes problems with the body's ability to change food--especially sugars (carbohydrates)--into fuel for the body. High blood glucose from not properly treating the diabetes can damage the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, eyes and nervous system over many years.

   What causes hypothermia in people with diabetes?

   • In people with diabetes, hypothermia can be a sign of severely low blood sugar levels, or hypoglycemia. This happens in response to extremely depressed levels of glucose in the central nervous system (neuroglycopenia), and usually when blood sugar levels are too low for shivering to occur (which helps maintain body temperature stasis).

   How does hypothermia affect a newborn?

   • Hypothermia in newborns can be purely environmental or may signal an illness. When a baby gets cold, they will use up glycogen and glucose stores to keep warm. Persistent hypothermia can result in low blood sugar levels and metabolic acidosis. It increases the risk of late-onset sepsis and mortality.

   How do you know if a child has hypothermia?

   • Dress infants and young children in one more layer than an adult would wear in the same conditions. Bring children indoors if they start shivering — that's the first sign that hypothermia is starting. Have children come inside often to warm themselves when they're playing outside. Don't let babies sleep in a cold room.
