We describe two cases of right hyperglycemia hemichorea (HGHC) with identical Tc-99m TRODAT-1/
Tc-99m ECD scan findings. While the brain MRI showed signal alterations within the left putamen,
there was evidence of hyperperfusion on Tc-99m TRODAT-1 but hypoperfusion on Tc-99m ECD
within the left putamen, in association with hyperperfusion within left thalamus on Tc-99m ECD.
The discrepancy between the Tc-99m TRODAT-1 and Tc-99m ECD scan provides insight into the
imbalance between direct and indirect circuits along the nigrostriatal pathway, as the fundamental
genesis of HGHC. Furthermore, the hyperperfusion at the left thalamus represents thalamic disinhibition
secondary to loss of pallidal negative control, which ultimately leads to HGHC through re-entrant
outflow to the motor cortex.

Introduction:
Adiponectin is an adipocytokine known to have anti-inflammatory and anti-atherogenic effects. It appears to impact insulin resistance and the subsequent development of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D). The gene encoding adiponectin ADIPOQ, has single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) that can be useful biomarkers to predict development of T2D; with the T/G polymorphism of SNP +45 in exon 2 being the most common.
Objective:
This study was conducted to evaluate the association of T45G adiponectin gene polymorphism with hyperglycemia among adult Filipinos seen at the outpatient department of the Philippine General Hospital.
Methods:
This is a matched case-control study, with duration of 12 months. DNA was extracted using the QIAGEN MIDI Blood Extraction Kit. The genomic DNA obtained was then subjected to real time PCR for SNP detection.
Results:
One hundred (100) adults were enrolled; forty-three (43) had normoglycemia, while fifty seven (57) had hyperglycemia, after a 75-g oral glucose tolerance test. Hyperglycemic subjects were older (44±15.6 years vs. 52±8.3 years, p-value 0.002), and had lower HDL levels (58.5±16.0 mg/dLvs. 47.8+11.8 mg/dL, p-value 0.000). Among thirty-nine (39) participants found to have the T45G adiponectin gene polymorphism, 22 or 56.4% were hyperglycemic while 17 or 43.6% were normoglycemic.
Conclusion
There was no significant association observed between the T45G SNP and presence of hyperglycemia.

6.Assessment of sliding insulin use in the treatment of new onset hyperglycemia in emergency patients
Journal of Vietnamese Medicine 2004;301(8):26-33
Insuline therapy was used on 99 over-15 years old patients of newly diagnosed diabetes first in internal emergency Department at Bach Mai Hospital from June1998 to Feb.2003 Subjects were divided into 2 groups: Group 1 included persons of the signs of high blood glucose level without diabetes; group 2 included patients sufferred from diabetes without confirmed diagnosis. In >92% of cases of group 1 and 74% of group 2, insuline therapy had effectiveness to control blood glucose level <11mmol from the 7th day of treatment and after the 7th day in >62% of group 1 and <36% of group 2. There was no complication of hypoglycemia

Seizures are a common presenting manifestation in patients in a nonketotic hyperglycemic(NKH) hyperosmolar state and the MR findings are typically hyperintense on T2 weighted (T2-W) and fluid attenuated inversion recovery (FLAIR) images. We recently experienced a case of the patient with partial seizure and nonketotic hyperglycemia who showed T2-W and FLAIR hypointensities with T1 weighted (T1-W) contrast enhancement.
