  • Title: [Ketoacidosis also occurs in type 2 diabetes. Important risk factors are other concomitant diseases]].
    Author: Elvanides H, Eriksson JW.
    Journal: Lakartidningen; 1999 Aug 25; 96(34):3529-32, 3534. PubMed ID: 10492557.
    Abstract:
    Although ketoacidosis has traditionally been regarded as a complication occurring only in conjunction with type I diabetes, there have recently been reports of its occurrence in cases of type II diabetes, e.g. in Afro-American and Japanese patients. The article reports a few cases suggesting that ketoacidosis may not be a rare phenomenon even in Swedish type II diabetes patients. This severe complication is usually precipitated by the occurrence of other concomitant disease.
