JOURNAL FREE ACCESSAim: We reviewed the adequacy of an artificial Hct preparation specimen to evaluate blood sugar (BS) meter results with a revision function for hematocrit (Hct) influence. Methods: We measured, by using a GOD type BS meter with a revision function, whole blood glucose levels of artificial Hct preparation specimens, and clinical specimens which included plethoric specimens. We measured the plasma glucose levels of the specimens with an automatic analyzer. Results: As the Hct of a specimen increased, the measured glucose value in the artificial Hct preparation specimen measured with a GOD meter was lower than the plasma glucose value, but the measured glucose value in clinical specimen was equal to the plasma glucose value. Conclusions: Our results suggested that we have to evaluate the Hct revision efficiency of BS meters with a fresh clinical specimen.

JOURNAL FREE ACCESSDrug-induced liver injury due to human insulin has rarely been reported. A 58-year-old male was diagnosed as having type 2 diabetes mellitus by another hospital in 1988, and Penfil® N administration was initiated. Although he was referred to our department in May 2001, he discontinued consulting the hospital in May 2002. He was admitted to our department because of a markedly elevated plasma glucose level of 296 mg/dl and HbA1c of 15.4% when he consulted the ophthalmological department due to a cataract in July 2004. Intensive insulin therapy with Novolin® R and N improved the plasma glucose level. However, some markers of liver injury were aggravated after 3 weeks (AST 409 IU/l, ALT 498 IU/l, and ALP 458 IU/l). The patient was suspected to have drug-induced liver injury due to human insulin based on the diagnostic criteria proposed at the DDW-J2004 Workshop. After Novolin® R and N were changed to Humalog® and Lantus®, AST, ALT, and ALP levels returned to the normal ranges. This case is interesting, because liver function recovered after human insulin was replaced with insulin analogue preparations.
