Acute Hyperglycemia Associated with Psychotic Symptoms in a Patient with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: A Case Report
Conclusion Clinicians should consider inadequate glycemic control as a potential cause of acute-onset psychotic episodes in patients with diabetes. Our case highlights the importance of first stabilizing these patients’ glycemic levels before prescribing antipsychotics, especially atypical antipsychotics, which may exacerbate hyperglycemia and thus potentially worsen the psychosis. If other pathologies are ruled out and an association between hyperglycemia and psychotic symptoms is established, these patients may benefit from benzodiazepines, as these drugs will not exacerbate hyperglycemia and may help calm the patients...

Researchers propose touch-to-access security for implanted devices
Pacemakers, insulin pumps, defibrillators and other implantable medical devices often have wireless capabilities that allow emergency workers to monitor patients. But these devices have a potential downside: They can be hacked. Researchers at Rice University have come up with a secure way to dramatically cut the risk that an implanted medical device (IMD) could be altered remotely without authorization.
