Carbohydrate metabolism disorders in salicylate poisoning: Diagnostic problems and physician's tactics
Drug poisoning, in particular poisoning with analgesics, is a topical problem in pediatrics. Poisoning signs are diverse, and interdisciplinary collaboration is important for managing these conditions. In this article, we discuss the diagnostic problems of salicylate poisoning, symptoms of which are similar to those in diabetes. In addition, ways to confirm the diagnosis and treatment modalities are described. © 2017 by the MediaSphere

Difficulties in the differential diagnosis of epileptic and hypocalcemic seizures in children and adolescents
Epileptic seizures require differential diagnosis with other paroxysmal conditions, including metabolic seizures. A variety of electrolyte changes can result in central nervous system dysfunction, including that as convulsive seizures. The paper describes electrolyte disorders leading to seizures, as well as their clinical features. It separately presents the syndromes accompanied by hypocalcemia, in which there may be convulsive paroxysms. The paper describes three clinical cases of hypocalcemic seizures. It gives recommendations for the diagnosis and management of patients with suspected metabolic seizures. © 2018 Ima-Press Publishing House. All rights reserved
