Diabetes Mellitus
1. Diabetes Mellitus
DR. FARHANA ATIA

2. Hypoglycemia
Hypoglycemia is characterized by-
CNS symptoms including confusion, aberrant behavior or
coma
Blood glucose level <3 mmol/L (≤50 mg/dl)
Symptoms resolved within minutes following glucose
administration
Hypoglycemia is a medical emergency (neuron is glucose
obligate cell)
Glucagon & catecholamines combat hypoglycemia
3. Types of Hypoglycemia
Insulin Induced Hypoglycemia
>99% causes are IDDM
Insufficient carbohydrate intake/ missed meal
Excess of insulin
Strenuous exercise
Excessive alcohol intake
4. Types of Hypoglycemia
Postprandial hypoglycemia
Due to exaggerated insulin release following a meal
transient hypoglycemia with mild adrenergic symptom
BGC return to normal even if the patient is not fed
So, in DM- frequent small meal rather than usual 3 large
meal is advised
Alcohol-related hypoglycemia: in malnourished & fasting
condition by inhibiting gluconeogenesis
5. Types of Hypoglycemia
Fasting Hypoglycemia
Rare but serious medical problem
Tends to produce neuroglycopenic symptoms
Causes
1. Hepatocellular damage
2. Adrenal insufficiency
3. Fasting with large amount of ethanol consumption
4. Insulinoma: β cell tumor of pancreas produce inappropriate &
excess insulin increase peripheral uptake of glucose
6. Neonatal Hypoglycemia
Babies of diabetic mother
Diabetic mother have elevated insulin
After delivery baby is unable to suppress it properly, so
High Insulin in baby leads to Hypoglycemia
IUGR
Due to inadequate liver glycogen
Inborn error of metabolism
Galactosemia
Glycogen storage disease
7. Consequence of Hypoglycemia
Adrenergic (neurogenic/
autonomic) symptoms
Neuroglycopenic symptoms
(Impaired delivery of glucose to
brain)
(Due to catecholamines release
in response to hypoglycemia)
Sweating
Tremor
Anxiety
Palpitation
Dizziness
Headache
Confusion
Slurred speech
Drowsiness
Seizure
Coma
Death
8. Glucoregulatory Systems
Two overlapping systems-
1. Pancreatic α cells- release glucagon
2. Receptors in hypothalamus- respond to abnormally low
concentration of blood glucose & trigger the secretion of
Catecholamines, ACTH, Growth hormone
Counterregulatory hormone (Oppose the action of insulin
on glucose use)
Glucagon- ↑ glycogenolysis,↑ gluconeogenesis
Catecholamine- ↑ glycogenolysis, ↑ lipolysis, (-) insulin secretion
Cortisol- ↑ gluconeogenesis
GH- ↓ glucose uptake
Play role in long term maintenance
of blood glucose
10. Hyperglycemia
Increase blood glucose concentration
Cause
Diabetes Mellitus
Intravenous infusion of glucose containing fluid
Severe stress: Temporary, In cerebro-vascular accident
11. Diabetes mellitus
Diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous group of syndromes
characterized by elevation of fasting blood glucose
(FBG)
caused by a relative or absolute deficiency of insulin
Leading cause of adult blindness & amputation
Major cause of renal failure, nerve damage, heart attack,
stroke
11
12. Classification of Diabetes Mellitus
Type 1/ T1D (IDDM)
Type 2/ T2D (NIDDM)
The terms insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and
noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) are
obsolete
Since many individuals with type 2 DM eventually require
insulin treatment.
13. Type 1 diabetes
β-cell destruction, usually leading to absolute insulin
deficiency
Type
Immune-mediated
Idiopathic
Genetic & environmental factor may present
Abrupt onset of
Polyurea
Polyphagia
Polydipsia
14. Type 2 diabetes
Impaired insulin action
Insulin resistance
Dysfunctional β cell
Insulin may be Normal/ ↑/ ↓
Minimum symptom, Less complications
Not prone to ketosis
Insulin resistance is the decrease ability of target cell (liver,
adipose tissue, muscle) to respond properly to normal or
elevated circulating concentration of insulin
15. Diabetic prone states
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM):
Impaired glucose tolerance (IGT):
Plasma glucose values are above the normal level, but
below the diabetic levels.
In IGT, the FBS value is 6.1 - 7.0 mmol/L & 2 hour OGTT
value is between 7.8-11.1 mmol/L
Requires careful follow-up because IGT progresses to frank
diabetes at the rate of 2% patients per year
Dietary restriction & exercise are advised
16. Diabetic prone states
Impaired fasting glycemia (IFG):
In this condition, fasting plasma glucose is above normal
(between 6.1 - 7.0 mmol/L); but the 2 hour post-glucose
value is within normal limits (< 7.8 mmol/L)
These persons need no immediate treatment; but are to be
kept under constant check up
17. Renal glycosuria
Renal glycosuria is a benign condition due to a reduced
renal threshold for glucose (N- 10.0mmol/L)
It is unrelated to diabetes & should not be mistaken as
diabetes.
It is not accompanied y the classical symptoms of
diabetes
18. Alimentary glycosuria
In certain individuals, blood glucose level rises rapidly
after meals resulting in its spill over into urine.
This condition is referred to as alimentary glycosuria.
It is observed in
some normal people
Patients of hepatic diseases
Hyperthyroidism
Peptic ulcer

22. Differences
Feature Type 1 DM Type 2 DM
Acute Complications Hypoglycemia and
ketoacidosis
Hyperosmolar non
ketotic coma
Frequency of ketosis Very common Rare
Treatment Insulin is always
needed, oral
hypoglycemic drugs are
ineffective.
Diet, exercise, oral
hypoglycemic drugs
and insulin in severe
cases
22
23. Metabolic effect of DM
Glucose metabolism- Increased hepatic output and decreased
glucose utilization
Peripheral uptake- ↓ uptake of glucose in skeletal muscle,
cardiac muscle and adipose tissue (GLUT- 4 receptors are
insulin dependent)
Gluconeogenesis- ↑
Glycogenesis- ↓
Glycogenolysis- ↑
Net effect- Hyperglycemia
23
24. Altered carbohydrate metabolism leads to
Hyperglycemia
Glycosuria - When the capacity of the kidneys to absorb glucose
is surpassed.
Polyuria - osmotic diuresis. An increase in renal loss of glucose is
accompanied by loss of water and electrolytes.
Polydipsia - Loss of water (and overall volume) activate thirst
mechanism.
Polyphagia The negative caloric balance which results from the
glucosuria and tissue catabolism leads to an increase in appetite
and food intake.
24
25. Lipid metabolism in DM
Adipolysis
Increased levels of plasma free fatty acids
Fatty acid oxidation- Increased
Majority of the acetyl-CoA is not oxidized by the TCA cycle
but is metabolized into the ketone bodies
Used for energy production
Exacerbates the reduced utilization of glucose furthering the
ensuing hyperglycemia
Diagnosed by smelling the breath
25
26. Lipid metabolism in DM
Hypertriglyceridemia
VLDLc and LDLc- High
HDLc –low
Net effect-
Ketoacidosis
Dyslipidemia (Atherogenic profile)
26
27. Protein metabolism in DM
Insulin deficiency increased catabolism of protein.
Elevated concentrations in plasma amino acids.
Amino acids serve as precursors for hepatic and renal
gluconeogenesis.
Hyperglycemia seen in IDDM.
27
28. Water and Electrolyte imbalance in DM
Dehydration is a frequent finding , Polyuria is responsible
for dehydration.
Hypokalemia
Total body K is low
False hyperkalemia due to non functioning of Sodium
Potassium ATPase pump. Caution is needed during
Insulin administration.
28
33. Glucose tolerance test (GTT)
All drugs known to influence carbohydrate metabolism should be
discontinued (2 days)
The subject should avoid strenuous exercise on the previous day
of the test
Person should be in an overnight fasting state
During the course of GTT, the person should be comfortably
seated & should refrain from smoking & exercise
34. Procedure for GTT
Glucose tolerance test should be conducted preferably in
the morning (ideal 9 to 11 AM).
A fasting blood sample is drawn and urine collected.
The subject is given 75 g glucose orally, dissolved in
about 300 ml of water, to be drunk in about 5 minutes
35. Procedure for GTT
Blood & urine samples are collected at 30 minute intervals
for at least 2 hours
All blood samples are subjected to glucose estimation
while urine samples are qualitatively tested for glucose

38. Glycated Hemoglobin (HbA1C)
Refers to the glucose derived products of normal adult
hemoglobin (HbA)
Glycation is a post-translational, non-enzymatic addition
of sugar residue to amino acids of proteins
Among the glycated hemoglobin, the most abundant
form is HbA1c
HbA1c is produced by the condensation of glucose with
N-terminal valine of each β-chain of HbA
39. Diagnostic importance of HbA1c
The rate of synthesis of HbA1c is directly related to the
exposure of RBC to glucose
HbA1c reflects the mean blood glucose level over
previous 8 weeks
HbA1c concentration is about 4-6% of total HbA₁
In diabetic patients, HbA1c is elevated (15%)
40. Microalbuminuria
Microalbuminuria is defined as the excretion of 30-300 mg of
albumin in urine per day
Microalbuminuria represents an intermediary stage between
normal albumin excretion (2.5-30 mg/d) & macroalbuminuria
(>300 mg/d)
The small increase in albumin excretion predicts impairment in
renal function in diabetic patients
It indicates reversible renal damage
