Absence of Stress Hyperglycemia Indicates the Most Severe Form of Blunt Liver Trauma [PDF]
Diagnostics, 2021 Background: Stress hyperglycemia is common in trauma patients. Increasing injury severity and hemorrhage trigger hepatic gluconeogenesis, glycogenolysis, peripheral and hepatic insulin resistance. Consequently, we expect glucose levels to rise with injury severity in liver, kidney and spleen injuries.
