  2. Glucose tolerance test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucose_tolerance_test

    The glucose tolerance test was first described in 1923 by Jerome W. Conn. [4]The test was based on the previous work in 1913 by A. T. B. Jacobson in determining that carbohydrate ingestion results in blood glucose fluctuations, [5] and the premise (named the Staub-Traugott Phenomenon after its first observers H. Staub in 1921 and K. Traugott in 1922) that a normal patient fed glucose will ...

    Occasionally it may occur in those without a prior history of diabetes or those with diabetes mellitus type 1. [3] [4] Triggers include infections, stroke, trauma, certain medications, and heart attacks. [4] Other risk factors: Lack of sufficient insulin (but enough to prevent ketosis) [6] Poor kidney function [6] Poor fluid intake (dehydration ...

    [1] [2] Its usefulness was questioned in a 2015 review as it was not found to separate those who are at low from those who are at high risk of future problems. [3] A high score correctly predicted 87% of the people who did have a stroke in the following 7 days but also many people who did not have problems.

    Given the disease burden of stroke, prevention is an important public health concern. [86] Primary prevention is less effective than secondary prevention (as judged by the number needed to treat to prevent one stroke per year). [86] Recent guidelines detail the evidence for primary prevention in stroke. [87]

    [12] [13] Blood glucose values higher than the cutoff level of 11.1 mmol/L (200 mg/dL) are used to diagnose T2DM [14] and strongly associated with metabolic disturbances, [15] although symptoms may not start to become noticeable until even higher values such as 13.9–16.7 mmol/L (~250–300 mg/dL).

    Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) is diagnosed with an oral glucose tolerance test. According to the criteria of the World Health Organization and the American Diabetes Association, impaired glucose tolerance is defined as: [13] [14] two-hour glucose levels of 140 to 199 mg per dL (7.8 to 11.0 mmol/L) on the 75-g oral glucose tolerance test.

  8. CHA2DS2–VASc score - Wikipedia

    [32] [33] This is consistent with a recent decision analysis model showing how the 'tipping point' on the decision to anticoagulate has changed with the availability of the 'safer' DOAC drugs, where the threshold for offering stroke prevention (i.e. oral anticoagulation) is a stroke rate of approximately 1%/year. [24] [34]

  9. Cincinnati Prehospital Stroke Scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati_Prehospital...

    If the person slurs the words, gets some words wrong, or is unable to speak, that could be a sign of a stroke. Normal: Patient uses correct words with no slurring; Abnormal: Slurred or inappropriate words or mute; Patients with 1 of these 3 findings as a new event have a 72% probability of an ischemic stroke. If all 3 findings are present the ...
