Eligibility criteria
Inclusion
Provide informed consent
Have a BMI ≥ 28 kg/m2
Be of African American ancestry
Meet diagnostic criteria for DKA. Diagnostic criteria for DKA will include a plasma glucose \> 250 mg/dl, a venous pH \< 7.30, a serum bicarbonate \< 18 mmol/l, and serum ketones (beta-hydroxy butyrate) \> 1.5 mmol/L.
Exclusion
Significant medical or surgical illness including but not limited to myocardial ischemia, congestive heart failure, chronic peripheral venous insufficiency, chronic renal insufficiency, liver insufficiency (serum transaminases 3 times the upper limit of normal) and acute or chronic infectious processes
Have recognized uncontrolled endocrine disorders such as hypercortisolism, acromegaly, or hyperthyroidism
Anemia (hemoglobin \< 12.5 g/dL for men, \<11.5 gm/dL for women), bleeding disorders, or abnormalities in coagulation studies
Pregnant
Diagnosis of diabetes \> 90 days before the presentation of DKA
Unable to give consent
What this trial measures
- Quantify Changes in Blood GlucoseUp to 3 months
The day-to-day changes in blood glucose in KPDM will be quantified using CGMs.
- Development of Mathematical ModelsUp to 3 months
The study team will adapt and develop mathematical models to describe the course of KPDM remission in each individual patient, i.e. the entire range of variation within the group of 12 participants.
