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.
Signs and symptoms of diabetic ketoacidosis may include: 1  Ketoacidosis. 2  Kussmaul hyperventilation: deep, rapid breathing. 3  Confusion or a decreased level of consciousness.  Dehydration due to glycosuria and osmotic 1  diuresis. Acute hunger and/or thirst. ' Fruity' smelling breath odor.
