Euglycemic ketoacidosis is an urgent condition in which blood becomes excessively acidic due to high levels of ketones while blood glucose remains normal. Since ketoacidosis more commonly occurs alongside elevated blood glucose levels (hyperglycemia) due to insulin dysregulation, the normal levels of blood glucose seen in euglycemic ketoacidosis can hinder diagnosis and delay treatment.

Hypnic jerks, also known as sleep starts or myoclonic jerks, are sudden, involuntary muscle contractions that commonly occur as a person is falling asleep. These brief muscle twitches can sometimes be strong enough to wake an individual and are typically accompanied by a sensation of falling.
