    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoglycemia

    Hypoglycemia (American English), also spelled hypoglycaemia or hypoglycæmia (British English), sometimes called low blood sugar, is a fall in blood sugar to levels below normal, typically below 70 mg/dL (3.9 mmol/L). [1][3] Whipple's triad is used to properly identify hypoglycemic episodes. [2]

  4. Electrolyte imbalance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrolyte_imbalance

    Hyponatremia, or low sodium, is the most commonly seen type of electrolyte imbalance. [7] [8] Treatment of electrolyte imbalance depends on the specific electrolyte involved and whether the levels are too high or too low. [3] The level of aggressiveness of treatment and choice of treatment may change depending on the severity of the disturbance ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypocalcemia

    Hypocalcemia is a medical condition characterized by low calcium levels in the blood serum. [5] The normal range of blood calcium is typically between 2.1–2.6 mmol/L (8.8–10.7 mg/dL, 4.3–5.2 mEq/L), while levels less than 2.1 mmol/L are defined as hypocalcemic. [1] [3] [6] Mildly low levels that develop slowly often have no symptoms.

  7. Low-level programming language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Low-level_programming_language

    Low-level programming language. A low-level programming language is a programming language that provides little or no abstraction from a computer's instruction set architecture; commands or functions in the language are structurally similar to a processor's instructions. Generally, this refers to either machine code or assembly language.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyponatremia

    Hyponatremia. Hyponatremia or hyponatraemia is a low concentration of sodium in the blood. [4] It is generally defined as a sodium concentration of less than 135 mmol/L (135 mEq/L), with severe hyponatremia being below 120 mEq/L. [3][8] Symptoms can be absent, mild or severe. [2][9] Mild symptoms include a decreased ability to think, headaches ...

  9. Hypoxia (medicine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypoxia_(medicine)

    Hypoxia is a condition in which the body or a region of the body is deprived of adequate oxygen supply at the tissue level. [ 1 ] Hypoxia may be classified as either generalized, affecting the whole body, or local, affecting a region of the body. [ 2 ] Although hypoxia is often a pathological condition, variations in arterial oxygen ...
