Hyperosmolar non-ketotic diabetic coma: with particular reference to vascular complications.

Two West Indian men with no previous history of diabetes mellitus developed hyperosmolar non-ketotic diabetic coma. Intra-abdominal catastrophes secondary to mesenteric thrombosis played a major part in the death of these patients, in both of whom control of the hyperosmolar state had been achieved. Both patients had evidence of infarction of intestine at necropsy. Vascular thromboses are a major complication of this form of coma and must be considered when such patients develop signs of an acute abdomen.

Adrenal function in hypothyroidism.

In ten patients with hypothyroidism the adrenal response to stimulation with tetracosactrin was found to be normal, and to be unchanged after they had been treated with thyroxine. Though the response to insulin hypoglycaemia was less in the hypothyroid phase, it was never outside the normal limits. Hence it seems unlikely that the adrenal response to stress is appreciably lowered in hypothyroidism.
