Risk of Cardiac Arrhythmias During Hypoglycemia in Patients With Type 2 Diabetes and Cardiovascular Risk
Elaine Chow,Alan Bernjak,Scott E. Williams,Robert A. Fawdry,Steve Hibbert,Jenny Freeman,Paul J. Sheridan,Simon Heller +7 more
TL;DR: Hypoglycemia, frequently asymptomatic and prolonged, may increase the risk of arrhythmias in patients with type 2 diabetes and high cardiovascular risk, a plausible mechanism that could contribute to increased cardiovascular mortality during intensive glycemic therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Secular trends in all-cause and cause-specific mortality rates in people with diabetes in Hong Kong, 2001–2016: a retrospective cohort study
Hongjiang Wu,Eric S.H. Lau,Ronald C.W. Ma,Alice P.S. Kong,Sarah H. Wild,William B. Goggins,Elaine Chow,Wing-Yee So,Wing-Yee So,Juliana C.N. Chan,Andrea O.Y. Luk +10 more
TL;DR: absolute and relative mortality has declined overall in people with diabetes in Hong Kong, with less marked improvements in people under 45 years of age, calling for urgent action to improve care in young people withabetes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diurnal Differences in Risk of Cardiac Arrhythmias During Spontaneous Hypoglycemia in Young People With Type 1 Diabetes.
Peter Novodvorsky,Alan Bernjak,Elaine Chow,Ahmed Iqbal,Lianne Sellors,Scott E. Williams,Robert A. Fawdry,Bhavin Parekh,Richard Jacques,Jefferson Luiz Brum Marques,Paul J. Sheridan,Simon Heller +11 more
TL;DR: Differences in arrhythmic risk and cardiac repolarization during nocturnal versus daytime hypoglycemia in young adults with type 1 diabetes are identified and provide further evidence that hypglycemia is proarrhythmogenic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbiota engraftment after faecal microbiota transplantation in obese subjects with type 2 diabetes: a 24-week, double-blind, randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: In this paper, a double-blind, randomised, placebo-controlled trial, 61 obese patients with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) were randomly assigned to three parallel groups: FMT plus lifestyle intervention (LSI), FMT alone, or sham transplantation plus LSI every 4 weeks for up to week 12.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of low serum total protein on sodium and potassium measurement by ion-selective electrodes in critically ill patients
Elaine Chow,N Fox,Rousseau Gama +2 more
TL;DR: In critically ill patients who have a high prevalence of hypoproteinaemia, direct ISE offers more accurate and consistent electrolyte results than does indirect ISE (commonly used in major laboratory analysers), which leads to significant misclassification of electrolyte status.
