Is stress-induced hyperglycemia , not diabetic hyperglycemia , associated with higher mortality in trauma?
DM is common in patients with hyperglycemia after trauma. As opposed to DH, SIH is associated with higher mortality after trauma. Further research is warranted to identify mechanisms causing hyperglycemia and subsequent worse outcomes after trauma.
These results provide direct experimental support for macroevolutionary patterns of testis size evolution. Furthermore, we have shown that sperm competition selects for traits likely to be important in sexual conflicts over paternity, a result only previously demonstrated in Drosophila melanogaster.
