Type 2 dm gdm new updates & guidelinesSachin Verma
Type 2 diabetes is a multifactorial disorder characterised by progressive pancreatic beta-cell dysfunction and insulin- resistance, leading to relative insulin deficiency, chronic hyperglycaemia, and various complications.
The treatment options for this disorder, which aim at correcting one or other of the two major pathophysiological mechanisms, have been hamstrung by unacceptable side-effects, lack of patient acceptability, and loss of efficacy over time.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Study Resources:
1. Chapter 39, Guyton and Hall Textbook of Medical Physiology, 14th edition
2. Chapter 34, Ganong’s Review of Medical Physiology, 26th edition
3. Chapter 17, Human Physiology by Lauralee Sherwood, 9th edition
4. Non-respiratory functions of the lungs https://academic.oup.com/bjaed/article/13/3/98/278874
4. Pharmacological Effects:
>increase insulin sensitivity
>Increases glucose uptake and utilisation
>reduces hepatic glucose production
>decreases glucose absorption from GIT
>decrease plasma glucagon level
Decrease blood glucose
>Metformin has no direct effect on the β cells, although insulin levels
are reduced, reflecting increases in insulin sensitivity.
5. Clinical uses:
Hyperglycemia due to ineffective insulin action.
>Type II diabetes +-Tzd or insulin
secretagogues
>Prevention of type II DM
Dosage: 500mg to maximum 2.55gm daily with
the lowest effective dose being
recommended. Dosage always be divided
since dose greater than 1000mg provoke GI-
upsets.
6. Adverse Effects:
>GI-Upsets: anorexia, nausea, vomiting,
abdominal discomfort, diarrhea.
>DecreaseVitaminB12 absorption.
>lactic acidosis: more common with phenformin
than with metformin.
Contraindications:
Renal disease
Hepatic disease
Conditions predisposing to tissue anoxia
8. Indications:
As monotherapy or in combination with biguanides or
Sulfonylureas in type II DM
Adverse effects:
Fluid retention
Weight gain
Increased fracture rate
Anovulatory women may starts ovulation and risk of
pregnancy
Hepatotoxicity
Contraindications:
Liver disease
Heart failure
pregnancy
9. Pharmacological action:
Inhibit alpha glucosidases (sucrase,
maltase,dextranase,glycoamylase) that
converts complex starches, oligosaccharides
and disaccharides to their respective
monosacharides.
Their inhibition causes decrease absorption of
glucose.
How to treat hypoglycemia here?!
11. Pharmacological actions:
Insulin release from beta cells of pancreas
Through inhibition of ATP-sensitive potassium
channels that results in depolarization and
opens calcium channels with results in influx
of calcium ions and the release of insulin.
Reduces glucagon secretion
12. Uses:
Sulfonylureas are used primarily for the treatment of
diabetes mellitus type 2. Sulfonylureas are ineffective
where there is absolute deficiency of insulin
production such as in type 1 diabetes
Adverse effects:
Hypoglycemia as a result of excesses in insulin release.
Abdominal upsets, headache and hypersensitivity
reactions.
Impairment of liver or kidney function increase the risk
of hypoglycemia, and are contraindications.
13. Retinopathy: Patients with established
retinopathy should be examined by an
ophthalmologist at least every 6 to 12 months.
Neuropathy: Paresthesias, numbness, or pain
can be the predominant symptom. If neuropathy
is painful, symptomatic therapy is empiric,
including low-dose tricyclic antidepressants,
anticonvulsants (gabapentin, pregabalin,
carbamazepine, and maybe phenytoin),
duloxetine, venlafaxine, topical capsaicin, and
various pain medications, including tramadol
and nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drugs.
14. Gastroparesis can be severe and debilitating.
Improved glycemic control, discontinuation of
medications that slow gastric motility, and use of
metoclopramide.
Patients with orthostatic hypotension may require
mineralocorticoids or adrenergic agonists.
Diabetic diarrhea is commonly nocturnal and
frequently responds to a 10- to 14-day course of an
antibiotic such as doxycycline or metronidazole.
Octreotide may be useful in unresponsive cases.
Erectile dysfunction is common, and initial treatment
should include one of the oral medications currently
available (e.g., sildenafil, vardenafil, tadalafil).
15. Nephropathy:
Glucose and blood pressure control are most
important for prevention of nephropathy, and blood
pressure control is most important for retarding the
progression of established nephropathy.
Angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors and
angiotensin receptor blockers have shown efficacy in
preventing the clinical progression of renal disease in
patients with type 2 DM. Diuretics are frequently
necessary due to volume-expanded states and are
recommended second-line therapy.
