  • Title: Hypoglycaemic hemiparesis in a Nigerian alcoholic.
    Author: Imam I.
    Journal: Afr J Med Med Sci; 2004 Dec; 33(4):377-80. PubMed ID: 15977448.
    Abstract:
    Alcoholism is rarely reported as a clinical problem in Nigerians. This report is of a Nigerian alcoholic who presented with chest infection and alcohol withdrawal symptoms and subsequently developed transient hemiparesis which responded to correction of hypoglycaemia. Hypoglycaemia should be considered in all alcoholics presenting with hemiparesis.
