单词	ketosis
释义	ketosis /kɪˈtəʊsɪs / noun [mass noun] Medicine A metabolic state characterized by raised levels of ketone bodies in the body tissues, which is typically pathological in conditions such as diabetes, or may be the consequence of a diet that is very low in carbohydrates: three patients developed mild ketosis, which was promptly and successfully treated with subcutaneous insulin... The urine ketone dip test was highly sensitive for diabetic ketoacidosis and diabetic ketosis with or without acidosis. Three key features of diabetic acidosis are hyperglycemia, ketosis, and acidosis. The real danger in ketosis is that ketones are acidic, and high levels of ketones make the blood abnormally acid. Derivatives ketotic /kɪˈtɒtɪk/ adjective ... Other ketotic states such as alcoholic and starvation ketosis can also produce a positive urine ketone test without corresponding serum ketones, affecting the specificity of the urine dip test for detecting ketonemia. I was constipated, energy-less, had ketotic breath and was just generally miserable. If I see a cow looking a little ketotic, I give her a bottle of dextrose and a little grain, and that usually takes care of it. Origin Early 20th century: from ketone + -osis.
