These traces were produced by a time-domain reflectometer made from common lab equipment connected to approximately 100 feet (30 m) of coaxial cable having a characteristic impedance of 50 ohms. The propagation velocity of this cable is approximately 66 % of the speed of light in a vacuum.
Metabolic problems such as hypothyroidism (low thyroid hormone), diabetic ketoacidosis (build-up of ketones in the body), and electrolyte imbalances can also trigger rhabdomyolysis. Other genetic disorders that can lead to rhabdomyolysis include: 1  carnitine deficiency. 2  McArdleâs disease. 3  lactate dehydrogenase deficiency.
Ketoacidosis is the formal name for the condition, and it is strongly linked to the development of diabetes. Tertiary symptoms include a fruity fragrance to the breath in particular, and if this menopausal body smell arises, it should be investigated by a doctor to see if insulin resistance or diabetes is a factor.
