The document summarizes the history and origins of the word diabetes, the discovery of the pancreas and insulin, and provides details on the types, causes, symptoms, investigations and management of diabetes. It traces the term diabetes back to ancient Greece and describes observations of the disease made by ancient Egyptians, Indians and Persians. It discusses key discoveries like the roles of the pancreas by Minkowski and von Mering in 1889 and the discovery of insulin by Banting, Best and Macleod in 1921-1922.
The history of diabetes dates back to ancient Egyptians in approximately 1550 BC when an Egyptian papyrus first described symptoms of rapid weight loss and frequent urination. In the 1st century CE, the Greek physician Aretaeus named the condition "diabetes" and described its characteristic symptoms. It was not until the 1920s that scientists like Moses Barron and Frederick Banting linked diabetes to the pancreas and discovered the hormone insulin, revolutionizing treatment. Today, while prevention and management remain challenging, life for diabetics continues to improve.
This document discusses the history and types of diabetes. It explains that diabetes is a chronic condition characterized by high blood sugar levels due to the body not properly producing or using insulin. The terms "diabetes" and "mellitus" are derived from Greek and Latin words referring to passing excessive urine and honey-like urine, respectively. It provides key facts about the increasing prevalence of diabetes globally and its health impacts. The document also outlines the discoveries of insulin and the roles of insulin and glucagon in regulating blood sugar levels.

- World Diabetes Day was created in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and WHO in response to the diabetes epidemic. It is observed annually on November 14, the birthday of Frederick Banting, one of the discoverers of insulin.
- Diabetes has been known since ancient times and was described in early medical texts from Egypt, India, and Greece. However, the disease was more clearly defined in the 16th-19th centuries.
- Currently, over 346 million people worldwide have diabetes. If current trends continue, that number is projected to rise to over 366 million by 2030.
The history of diabetes dates back to 1500 BC, with the earliest descriptions found in ancient Egyptian and Hindu manuscripts. The Greeks coined the term "diabetes" in the 2nd century BC to mean "to pass through" referring to the excessive urination. In the 4th-5th century AD, Indian physicians were the first to distinguish between type 1 and type 2 diabetes. The role of the pancreas in diabetes was discovered in 1889, leading to the discovery of insulin in the 1920s and its use as a treatment. Major advances in the 20th century included distinguishing type 1 and type 2 diabetes, determining insulin's amino acid sequence, and developing new insulin therapies and delivery methods.

This document discusses Diabetic Ketoacidosis (DKA), a life-threatening complication of diabetes that occurs when there is a severe lack of insulin. It presents when blood sugar levels rise, fat is broken down instead of glucose, and acid builds up in the blood. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, and fruity breath. DKA is most common in type 1 diabetes but can occur in other types during illness or medication changes. Treatment involves fluids, electrolytes, and insulin to stabilize the condition. Cerebral edema is a risk, especially in children, where the swelling can be fatal if not addressed.

Researchers are working on isolating diabetes genes and stem cell therapies to help treat and potentially cure both Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes.
- World Diabetes Day was established in 1991 by the International Diabetes Federation and World Health Organization to be held annually on November 14th, the birthday of Sir Frederick Banting who co-discovered insulin.
- The day aims to raise global awareness about diabetes and advocate for policies to help those affected by the disease. A wide range of activities are organized each year including health screenings, educational campaigns, and events.
- Sir Frederick Banting was a Canadian medical scientist who received the 1923 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for the discovery of insulin and its use in treating diabetes.
The pancreas is an organ that produces hormones like insulin and enzymes for digestion. Diseases of the pancreas include pancreatitis, diabetes mellitus, exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, cystic fibrosis, pseudocysts, and cysts. Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders characterized by high blood sugar levels over an extended period. There are three main types of diabetes: type 1 caused by the pancreas failing to produce insulin; type 2 involving insulin resistance and sometimes insulin deficiency; and gestational diabetes occurring during pregnancy in women without a prior history of diabetes.

Over 30 million people in the United States have been diagnosed with diabetes, all of whom were told they have a terminal disease that cannot be cured. They’re told that all they can do is manage their symptoms by eating less sugar and getting regular insulin injections. However, as you’re about to find out, the root cause of diabetes and how to reverse it has been known scientifically for over 70 years. Obviously, profiting from selling insulin is far more important to the medical industry than reducing humanity’s suffering.
In 1947, a Nobel Prize-winning scientist discovered that overconsumption of polyunsaturated fatty acids can cause diabetes. This means that every time you eat a large amount of polyunsaturated fats like vegetable oil you’re becoming temporarily diabetic and insulin resistant. And if you enough of these fats, the diabetes metabolism will become chronic.
In the decades since this landmark study, researchers have shown in both animals and in humans that eating a diet low in polyunsaturated fat can completely reverse diabetes.
In 2001, a paper in the New England Journal of Medicine admitted that “Type 2 diabetes can be prevented by changes in the lifestyles of high-risk subjects”[1] so contrary to popular belief, diabetes is a metabolic disease not a genetic one and it can be completely reversed.
In this video, you’ll learn what causes diabetes and how to use treatments like red light therapy and dietary changes to help you safely and effectively prevent or reverse the disease.

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of diseases characterized by high levels of blood glucose resulting from defects in insulin production, insulin action, or both.
Diabetes mellitus, or diabetes, is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by high blood sugar levels resulting from defects in insulin production or insulin action. The document provides a detailed history and overview of the different types of diabetes, including type 1 caused by lack of insulin, type 2 caused by insulin resistance, and gestational diabetes during pregnancy. Pathophysiology sections describe glucose regulation by insulin and the metabolic effects of insulin deficiency or resistance.
This document summarizes a study on the antidiabetic effects of Asparagus racemosus leaves in rats. Diabetes was induced in rats using alloxan monohydrate. The aqueous and alcoholic extracts of A. racemosus leaves at doses of 20 and 30 mg/kg body weight were administered to diabetic rats for 21 days. Blood glucose levels and oral glucose tolerance were measured and found to decrease significantly in the extract-treated groups compared to controls, indicating antidiabetic effects. Phytochemical analysis revealed the presence of compounds like alkaloids, tannins, saponins, terpenoids, flavonoids, phenolics, and glycosides that may be responsible for the ant
This document summarizes a study that evaluated the antidiabetic potential of leaves from the plant Asparagus racemosus. Diabetes was induced in rats using alloxan monohydrate. The rats were then given aqueous or alcoholic extracts of A. racemosus leaves at doses of 20-30 mg/kg body weight. Blood glucose levels and oral glucose tolerance were measured on various days after extract administration and compared to a standard drug (glibenclamide). The extracts significantly decreased blood glucose levels and improved glucose tolerance, showing antidiabetic effects comparable to the standard drug. Phytochemical analysis revealed the extracts contain alkaloids, tannins, saponins, terpenoids, flav
The document discusses diabetes, including its types (type 1, type 2, and gestational), symptoms, risk factors, diagnosis, treatment, and potential complications if uncontrolled. It notes that diabetes is a metabolic disease where the body does not properly produce or use insulin, causing high blood sugar. The main types are type 1 where the body does not produce insulin, type 2 where the body does not produce enough insulin or cells do not respond to insulin, and gestational which occurs during pregnancy.
Obesity is a medical condition where excess body fat has accumulated to the extent that it can negatively impact health. It is defined as having a body mass index over 30 kg/m2. The Greeks were the first to recognize obesity as a medical disorder. There are two main types - type 1 is caused by lifestyle factors like poor diet and lack of exercise, while type 2 is caused by underlying medical conditions and can cause abnormal weight gain even without overeating. Obesity increases the risk of diseases like diabetes, high blood pressure, heart disease, and certain cancers. Treatment focuses on diet, exercise and lifestyle changes, but long-term success in weight loss maintenance is often difficult.
Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose caused by issues with insulin secretion or action. There are three main types: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or the body does not respond properly to insulin. Treatment involves lifestyle changes like diet and exercise as well as medication like insulin or other drugs. Management of diabetes is important to prevent complications and involves self-care activities and monitoring of blood glucose and weight.
Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by high blood glucose levels resulting from inadequate insulin production or cells not responding properly to insulin. The main types are type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is where the body does not produce insulin and affects approximately 10% of cases, while type 2 diabetes is where the body does not produce enough insulin or cells do not respond properly, accounting for around 90% of cases worldwide. Gestational diabetes occurs in females during pregnancy. Diabetes is diagnosed through A1C, fasting plasma glucose, and oral glucose tolerance tests and treated through lifestyle changes like diet and exercise or medication and insulin depending on the type.
The document discusses endocrine disorders and focuses on diabetes mellitus and thyroid disorders. It defines diabetes mellitus as a group of metabolic diseases involving high blood sugar levels over a prolonged period. The main types of diabetes are type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 results from the pancreas failing to produce insulin, while type 2 involves insulin resistance and sometimes a lack of insulin. Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy. The document also discusses the thyroid gland, which produces hormones that regulate growth, development and metabolism. Common thyroid disorders are then discussed.
This document provides information about diabetes, including:
- Diabetes is a chronic disease characterized by high blood sugar levels due to issues with insulin production or regulation.
- It was first referenced in ancient Egypt and named by Greek physician Aretaeus. Key discoveries include identifying the role of the pancreas and insulin.
- There are three main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes.
- Symptoms, causes, treatment, and complications are described for each type. Managing diabetes involves monitoring blood sugar, diet, exercise, and medication/insulin as needed.
Diabetes is a metabolic disease characterized by high blood sugar levels. There are three main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the body does not produce insulin, type 2 occurs when the body does not produce enough insulin or the cells do not respond properly to insulin, and gestational diabetes develops in pregnant women. Without proper treatment, high blood sugar can lead to serious health complications affecting the eyes, kidneys, heart, nerves, and other organs. Managing diabetes involves monitoring blood sugar levels, eating healthy, exercising, and potentially taking medication or insulin.
Diabetes mellitus is a disease characterized by high blood glucose levels due to the body's inability to produce or properly use insulin. There are two main types of diabetes - Type 1 is caused by an autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta cells, while Type 2 is associated with insulin resistance and impaired insulin secretion. Both types result in insufficient insulin and subsequent hyperglycemia. The document provides historical context on diabetes and outlines the roles of insulin, pancreatic hormones, and the metabolic processes involved in both healthy and diabetic states.

Gene therapy can be broadly defined as the transfer of genetic material to cure a disease or at least to improve the clinical status of a patient.
One of the basic concepts of gene therapy is to transform viruses into genetic shuttles, which will deliver the gene of interest into the target cells.
Safe methods have been devised to do this, using several viral and non-viral vectors.
In the future, this technique may allow doctors to treat a disorder by inserting a gene into a patient's cells instead of using drugs or surgery.
The biggest hurdle faced by medical research in gene therapy is the availability of effective gene-carrying vectors that meet all of the following criteria:
Protection of transgene or genetic cargo from degradative action of systemic and endonucleases,
Delivery of genetic material to the target site, i.e., either cell cytoplasm or nucleus,
Low potential of triggering unwanted immune responses or genotoxicity,
Economical and feasible availability for patients .
Viruses are naturally evolved vehicles that efficiently transfer their genes into host cells.
Choice of viral vector is dependent on gene transfer efficiency, capacity to carry foreign genes, toxicity, stability, immune responses towards viral antigens and potential viral recombination.
There are a wide variety of vectors used to deliver DNA or oligo nucleotides into mammalian cells, either in vitro or in vivo.
The most common vector system based on retroviruses, adenoviruses, herpes simplex viruses, adeno associated viruses.
Breast cancer: Post menopausal endocrine therapyDr. Sumit KUMAR
Breast cancer in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive (HR+) status is a common and complex condition that necessitates a multifaceted approach to management. HR+ breast cancer means that the cancer cells grow in response to hormones such as estrogen and progesterone. This subtype is prevalent among postmenopausal women and typically exhibits a more indolent course compared to other forms of breast cancer, which allows for a variety of treatment options.
Diagnosis and Staging
The diagnosis of HR+ breast cancer begins with clinical evaluation, imaging, and biopsy. Imaging modalities such as mammography, ultrasound, and MRI help in assessing the extent of the disease. Histopathological examination and immunohistochemical staining of the biopsy sample confirm the diagnosis and hormone receptor status by identifying the presence of estrogen receptors (ER) and progesterone receptors (PR) on the tumor cells.
Staging involves determining the size of the tumor (T), the involvement of regional lymph nodes (N), and the presence of distant metastasis (M). The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) staging system is commonly used. Accurate staging is critical as it guides treatment decisions.
Treatment Options
Endocrine Therapy
Endocrine therapy is the cornerstone of treatment for HR+ breast cancer in postmenopausal women. The primary goal is to reduce the levels of estrogen or block its effects on cancer cells. Commonly used agents include:
Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators (SERMs): Tamoxifen is a SERM that binds to estrogen receptors, blocking estrogen from stimulating breast cancer cells. It is effective but may have side effects such as increased risk of endometrial cancer and thromboembolic events.
Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs): These drugs, including anastrozole, letrozole, and exemestane, lower estrogen levels by inhibiting the aromatase enzyme, which converts androgens to estrogen in peripheral tissues. AIs are generally preferred in postmenopausal women due to their efficacy and safety profile compared to tamoxifen.
Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators (SERDs): Fulvestrant is a SERD that degrades estrogen receptors and is used in cases where resistance to other endocrine therapies develops.
Combination Therapies
Combining endocrine therapy with other treatments enhances efficacy. Examples include:
Endocrine Therapy with CDK4/6 Inhibitors: Palbociclib, ribociclib, and abemaciclib are CDK4/6 inhibitors that, when combined with endocrine therapy, significantly improve progression-free survival in advanced HR+ breast cancer.
Endocrine Therapy with mTOR Inhibitors: Everolimus, an mTOR inhibitor, can be added to endocrine therapy for patients who have developed resistance to aromatase inhibitors.
Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is generally reserved for patients with high-risk features, such as large tumor size, high-grade histology, or extensive lymph node involvement. Regimens often include anthracyclines and taxanes.

Congestive Heart failure is caused by low cardiac output and high sympathetic discharge. Diuretics reduce preload, ACE inhibitors lower afterload, beta blockers reduce sympathetic activity, and digitalis has inotropic effects. Newer medications target vasodilation and myosin activation to improve heart efficiency while lowering energy requirements. Combination therapy, following an assessment of cardiac function and volume status, is the most effective strategy to heart failure care.

GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS AND GASTRITIS
Osvaldo Bernardo Muchanga
Gastrointestinal Infections
GASTROINTESTINAL INFECTIONS result from the ingestion of pathogens that cause infections at the level of this tract, generally being transmitted by food, water and hands contaminated by microorganisms such as E. coli, Salmonella, Shigella, Vibrio cholerae, Campylobacter, Staphylococcus, Rotavirus among others that are generally contained in feces, thus configuring a FECAL-ORAL type of transmission.
Among the factors that lead to the occurrence of gastrointestinal infections are the hygienic and sanitary deficiencies that characterize our markets and other places where raw or cooked food is sold, poor environmental sanitation in communities, deficiencies in water treatment (or in the process of its plumbing), risky hygienic-sanitary habits (not washing hands after major and/or minor needs), among others.
These are generally consequences (signs and symptoms) resulting from gastrointestinal infections: diarrhea, vomiting, fever and malaise, among others.
The treatment consists of replacing lost liquids and electrolytes (drinking drinking water and other recommended liquids, including consumption of juicy fruits such as papayas, apples, pears, among others that contain water in their composition).
To prevent this, it is necessary to promote health education, improve the hygienic-sanitary conditions of markets and communities in general as a way of promoting, preserving and prolonging PUBLIC HEALTH.
Gastritis and Gastric Health
Gastric Health is one of the most relevant concerns in human health, with gastrointestinal infections being among the main illnesses that affect humans.
Among gastric problems, we have GASTRITIS AND GASTRIC ULCERS as the main public health problems. Gastritis and gastric ulcers normally result from inflammation and corrosion of the walls of the stomach (gastric mucosa) and are generally associated (caused) by the bacterium Helicobacter pylor, which, according to the literature, this bacterium settles on these walls (of the stomach) and starts to release urease that ends up altering the normal pH of the stomach (acid), which leads to inflammation and corrosion of the mucous membranes and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
In addition to bacterial infections, gastritis and gastric ulcers are associated with several factors, with emphasis on prolonged fasting, chemical substances including drugs, alcohol, foods with strong seasonings including chilli, which ends up causing inflammation of the stomach walls and/or corrosion. of the same, resulting in the appearance of wounds and consequent gastritis or ulcers, respectively.
Among patients with gastritis and/or ulcers, one of the dilemmas is associated with the foods to consume in order to minimize the sensation of pain and discomfort.

2. ORIGIN OF THE WORD DIABETES
The term diabetes is the shortened version of the full name
diabetes mellitus.
Diabetes mellitus is derived from the Greek word diabetes
meaning siphon - to pass through and the Latin word mellitus
meaning honeyed or sweet. This is because in diabetes excess
sugar is found in blood as well as the urine.
It was known in the 17th century as the "pissing evil" .
https://www.news-medical.net/health/History-of-Diabetes.aspx
3. The term diabetes was probably coined by Apollonius of Memphis
around 250 BC.
Diabetes is first recorded in English, in the form diabete, in a medical
text written around 1425.
It was in 1675 that Thomas Willis added the word “mellitus” to the
word diabetes. This was because of the sweet taste of the urine. This
sweet taste had been noticed in urine by the ancient Greeks, Chinese,
Egyptians, Indians, and Persians as is evident from their literature.
4. In Ebers papyrus, dated back to 1500 BC, we may find passages
describing patients who suffer from excessive thirst, copious
urination and they are treated by plants' extracts. However,
according to the Egyptian endocrinologist historian of medicine and
translator of the Ebers papyrus Paul Ghalioungui (1908-1987), the
description of a probable diabetes, in Ebers, is regarded as
unsatisfactory and probably wrong.
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4707300/
5. In Kahun papyrus (c. 2000 BC) there is just the title of a recipe for the
Treatment of a thirsty woman, but the text is missing. So, we may assume
that ancient Egyptians could not recognize behind the symptoms of
specific disease entity such as diabetes.
Around the 5th century BC, the famous Indian surgeon Sushruta, in his
work Samhita, identified diabetes, by using the term madhumeha (honey-
like urine) and pointed out not only the sweet taste of the urine but also
its sticky feeling to the touch and its ability to attract the ants. Sushruta
further mention that diabetes affects primarily the rich castes and is
reated to the excessive food consumption as the rice, cereals and sweets.
6. In ancient China, Chang Chung-Ching (ca. 160-ca. 219), referred to as
"the Chinese Hippocrates', described polyuria, polydypsia and loss of
weight as symptoms of a specific disease, while in 7th century AD Chen
Chuan recorded the sweet urine in diabetes mellitus and named the
disease Hsiao kho ping mentioning its characteristic symptoms:
intense thirst, copious drinking and large amounts of urine which is
tasted sweet. In an attempt to treat that disease his colleague Li Hsuan
proposed the abstinence from wine, salt and sex.
7. From the 8th century onwards, physicians observed the tendency of diabetic
patients to develop skin infections as furuncles, rodent ulcers and troubles of
the eyesight. In 11th century AD, the celebrated Arabo-islamic physician
Avicenna (980-1037) in his textbook El-Kanun (Canon of Medicine) described
diabetes and mentioned gangrene and sexual dysfunction as its complication.
Years later, the medieval scholar Moises Maimonides (1138-1204) described
in detail diabetes. including the symptoms of acidosis
8. Ancient Egyptians, Indians, Chinese and Arabs tried to describe the
clinical signs and symptoms of diabetes mellitus.
However, few are the main protagonists in the history of diabetes
mellitus who contributed significantly, not only to its diagnosis and
treatment but also to the development of our current notions on the
disease, paving the way for further study and establishing a new
medical sub specialty, diabetology
9. DISCOVERY OF PANCREAS
Joseph von Mering and Oskar Minkowski in 1889 discovered the role of
pancreas in diabetes. They found that dogs whose pancreas was
removed developed all the signs and symptoms of diabetes and died
shortly afterwards.
In 1910, Sir Edward Albert Sharpey-Schafer found that diabetes resulted
from lack of insulin. He termed the chemical regulating blood sugar as
insulin from the Latin "insula", meaning island, in reference to the
insulin-producing islets of Langerhans in the pancreas.
https://www.news-medical.net/health/History-of-Diabetes.aspx
10. DISCOVERY OF INSULIN
In 1921 Sir Frederick Grant Banting and Charles Herbert Best repeated the
work of Von Mering and Minkowski and went ahead to demonstrate that
they could reverse induced diabetes in dogs by giving them an extract from
the pancreatic islets of Langerhans of healthy dogs. Banting, Best and their
chemist colleague Collip purified the hormone insulin from pancreases of
cows at the University of Toronto. This led to the availability of an effective
treatment for diabetes in 1922. For this, Banting and laboratory director
MacLeod received the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1923, both
shared their Prize money with others in the team who were not recognized,
in particular Best and Collip.
https://www.news-medical.net/health/History-of-Diabetes.aspx
11. HISTORY OF TREATMENT OF DIABETES
Sushruta, Arataeus, and Thomas Willis were the early pioneers of the
treatment of diabetes. Greek physicians prescribed exercise - preferably on
horseback to alleviate excess urination. Some other forms of therapy applied
to diabetes include wine, overfeeding to compensate for loss of fluid weight,
starvation diet, etc.
In 1776, Matthew Dobson confirmed that the sweet taste of urine of diabetics
was due to excess of a kind of sugar in the urine and blood of people with
diabetes
https://www.news-medical.net/health/History-of-Diabetes.aspx
12. In ancient times and medieval ages diabetes was usually a death sentence.
Aretaeus did attempt to treat it but could not give a good outcome.
Sushruta (6th century BCE) an Indian healer identified diabetes and
classified it as "Madhumeha". Here the word "madhu" means honey and
combined the term means sweet urine.
The ancient Indians tested for diabetes by looking at whether ants were
attracted to a person's urine. The Korean, Chinese, and Japanese words for
diabetes are based on the same ideographs which mean "sugar urine
disease".
13. In Persia Avicenna (980-1037) provided a detailed account on diabetes
mellitus in "The Canon of Medicine". He described abnormal appetite and
the decline of sexual functions along with sweet urine. He also identified
diabetic gangrene.
Avicenna was the first to describe diabetes insipidus very precisely. It was
much later in the 18th and 19th century that Johann Peter Frank (1745-
1821) differentiated between diabetes mellitus and diabetes insipidus
14. INTRODUCTION
Diabetes is a lifelong (chronic)
disease and is a group of
metabolic disorder characterized
by high levels of sugar in blood
(hyperglycemia) resulting from
defects in insulin secretion or
resistance to insulin or both.
15. EPIDEMIOLOGY
In 2014, 8.5% of adults aged 18 years and older had diabetes. In
2019, diabetes was the direct cause of 15 lakh deaths and 48% of
all deaths due to diabetes occurred before the age of 70 years.
Another 4,60,000 kidney disease deaths were caused by diabetes,
and raised blood glucose causes around 20% of cardiovascular
deaths.
16.
17. Between 2000 and 2019, there was a 3% increase in age-standardized
mortality rates from diabetes. In lower-middle-income countries, the
mortality rate due to diabetes increased 13%.
By contrast, the probability of dying from any one of the four main
noncommunicable diseases (cardiovascular diseases, cancer, chronic
respiratory diseases or diabetes) between the ages of 30 and 70
decreased by 22% globally between 2000 and 2019.
18.
19. ETIOLOGY
● Elevated blood sugar (glucose) levels due to absolute or relative
insufficiencies of insulin,
● Type 1-Beta cell destruction completely leading to absolute
insulin deficiency
● Type 2 –combination of insulin resistance and Beta cell
dysfunction
20. CLINICAL FEATURES
● Increased Thirst Frequent Urination
● Unexpected Weight Loss
● Increased Fatigue
● Blurred vision
● Numbness and tingling specially in hands and feet
21.
22. HORMONE CONTRIBUTIONS
● 15-20% α cells synthesize and secrete GLUCAGON
● 70- 80% β cells synthesize and secrete INSULIN
● 1-8% δ cells synthesize and secrete STOMATOSTATIN and
GASTRIN
● 1-2% F- cells secrete PANCREATIC POLYPEPTIDE which decreases
the absorption of food from the GIT
23. TYPES OF DIABETES
● TYPE 1 diabetes mellitus (IDDM)
● TYPE 2 diabetes mellitus (NIDDM)
● GESTATIONAL diabetes mellitus
● OTHER TYPES NEONATAL diabetes mellitus .
24. TYPE 1 DIABETES MELLITUS
● insulin- dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM)
● Also known as “juvenile diabetes”
● Common among 10-14 yrs age group
● 90% is autoimmune mediated
● 10% is idiopathic
25. TYPE 2 DIABETES MELLITUS
● Non insulin- dependent diabetes mellitus
(NIDDM)
● Also known as “adult-onset diabetes".
● The primary cause is excessive body weight
and not enough exercise.
● Begins as insulin resistance,as the need for
insulin rises, pancreas gradually loses its
ability to produce insulin.
26. GESTATIONAL DIABETES MELLITUS
● diagnosed during pregnancy
● Gestational diabetes is caused when the
insulin receptors do not function
properly
● Having no past diabetic history
27. COMPARISON OF TYPE 1 & 2 DIABETES
Features Type 1 Type 2
Onset Sudden Gradual
Age at onset Mostly in children Mostly in adults
Ketoacidosis Common Rare
Autoantibodies Usually present Absent
28. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF TYPE 1 DIABETES
● By loss of the insulin-producing beta cells of the islets of
Langerhans in the pancreas, leading to insulin deficiency.
● This type can be further classified as immune-mediated or
idiopathic.
● The majority of type 1 diabetes is of the immune- mediated
nature, in which a T-cell- mediated autoimmune attack leads to
the loss of beta cells and thus insulin.
29.
30. Cont.
● Affected people are otherwise healthy and of a healthy weight
when onset occurs.
● Sensitivity and responsiveness to insulin are usually normal,
especially in the early stages.
● Type 1 diabetes can affect children or adults, but was
traditionally termed "juvenile diabetes" because a majority of
these diabetes cases were in children.
31. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF TYPE 2 DIABETES
● Type 2 DM is characterized by insulin resistance.
● The defective responsiveness of body tissues to insulin is believed
to involve the insulin receptor.
● Type 2 DM is due primarily to lifestyle factors and genetics.
● Early stage of type 2, the predominant abnormality is reduced
insulin sensitivity.
32.
33. ● Obesity
● Lack of physical activity and poor diet
● Stress
● Dietary factors also influence the risk of developing type 2 DM
such as sugar-sweetened drinks
● Type of fats in diet saturated fats and trans fatty acids increasing
the risk of diabetes.
● Lifestyle factors
34. PATHOPHYSIOLOGY OF GESTATIONAL
DIABETES
● Involves a combination of relatively inadequate insulin secretion
and responsiveness.
● It occurs in about 2–10% of all pregnancies and may improve or
disappear after delivery.
● Pregnancy related factors like human placental lactogen
interferes with susceptible insulin receptors.
35. RISK FACTORS
● Non modifiable :-
Age - 45 or more
Race- African, American,Asian American
Family history - parents or siblings with diabetes
36. ● MODIFIABLE:
Pre diabetes Heart and blood disease
Hypertension
Low HDL cholesterol and high triglycerides.
Obesity
Polycystic ovary syndrome
Physical inactivity
39. INVESTIGATIONS
● Fasting blood sugar level
● Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)
● HbA1C
● Lipid Profile – To diagnose dyslipidaemia
● RBS can be done only if the patient follows up for the diagnostic
tests after a meal
40. HbA1c Test
The hemoglobin A1c (glycated hemoglobin, glycosylated hemoglobin,
HbA1c, or A1c) test is used to evaluate a person's level of glucose
control. The test shows an average of the blood sugar level over the
past 90 days and represents a percentage. The test can also be used to
diagnose diabetes.
41. ● For an HbA1c test to classify as
normal, or in the non-diabetic
range, the value must be below
5.7 %.
● Anyone with an HbA1c value of
5.7 % to 6.4 % is considered to be
prediabetic,
● while diabetes can be diagnosed
with a HbA1c of 6.5% or higher.
42. HOW THE TEST
WORKS
The sugar in your blood is called
glucose. When glucose builds up
in your blood, it binds to the
hemoglobin in your red blood
cells.
The A1c test measures how much
glucose is bound.
43. ORAL GLUCOSE TOLERANCE TEST
For this test, you fast overnight, and the fasting blood sugar level is
measured. Then you drink a sugary liquid, and blood sugar levels are
tested periodically for the next two hours. A blood sugar level:-
● <140 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L) is normal.
● > 200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L) after two hours indicates diabetes.
● A reading between 140 and 199 mg/dL (7.8 mmol/L and 11.0
mmol/L) indicates prediabetes.
44. FASTING BLOOD SUGAR TEST
A blood sample will be taken after an overnight fast.
A fasting blood sugar level
● <100 mg/dL (5.6 mmol/L) is normal.
● A fasting blood sugar level from 100 to 125 mg/dL (5.6 to 6.9
mmol/L) is considered prediabetes. If it's 126 mg/dL (7 mmol/L) or
higher on two separate tests, you have diabetes.
45. WHO DIABETES DIAGNOSTIC CRITERIA

48. DIET MANAGEMENT
● Follow individualized meal plan and snacks as scheduled diet
based on pts. wt., age, occupation and activity.
● Balanced diabetic diet - 50% CHO, 30% fats, 20% CHON(Co2, H20,
02, Nitrogen), vitamins and minerals.
● Meal should include more fiber and starch and fewer simple or
refined sugars.
49. EXERCISE
● Avoid trauma to extremities
● Avoid during poor metabolic control
● Physical activity promotes weight reduction and improves insulin
sensitivity, thus lowering blood glucose levels.
● Patients have BS>200 mg/ dl and who have urine ketones should
not begins excercise until urine test are negative.
50. INSULIN THERAPY
Short-term use:
● Acute illness,surgery,stress,emergencies
● Pregnancy
● Breast-feeding
● Insulin may be used as initial therapy in type 2 diabetes
● Severe metabolic decompensation(diabetic ketoacidosis,
hyperosmolar nonketotic coma , lactic acidosis)
51. Long term use :-
● If targets have not been reached after optimal dose of
therapy,then consider change multi - dose insulin therapy.
COMPLICATIONS OF INSULIN THERAPY
● Hypoglycemia
● Systemic allergic reactions
● Insulin resistance
52. ACTION OF INSULIN
It helps in the transportation of glucose across the cell membrane.
Insulin activate GLUT-4 (Transporter of glucose) as a result of that
glucose transportation occur across the cell
● It helps in the formation of glycogen; insulin stimulate Glycogen
synthase enzyme Glucose Glycogen. Insulin inhibit the
phosphorylase enzyme which convert the glycogen into glucose.
● Phosphorylase Insulin Glucose Glycogen Glucose
54. INSULIN DOSES
Insulin doses are given in two main ways:
● Basal insulin- provides a steady amount of insulin delivered all
day and night. This helps maintain blood glucose levels by
controlling how much glucose the liver releases (mainly at night
when the time between meals is longer).
55. ● Bolus insulin( premeal ) insulin :
Provides a dose of insulin at meals to help move absorbed sugar
from the blood into muscle and fat. Bolus doses can also help
correct blood sugar when it gets too high. Bolus doses are also
called nutritional or meal-time doses. Sometimes, a bolus dose
must also be taken with large snacks.
56. DOSES
● T1DM patients should receive multidose injections (3 - 4 a day) of
basal and premeal insulin or insulin pump therapy
● Most individuals with T1DM should use rapid-acting insulin
analogs to reduce hypoglycemia risk
57. THERAPY DOSES
● Insulin dosing in T1DM will vary based on patient's age, weight,
and residual pancreatic insulin activity
● T1DM patients will typically require a total daily insulin dose of
0.4 - 1.0 units/kg/day
● A typical starting dose in metabolically-stable patients is 0.5
units/kg/day
58. ORAL ANTI- DIABETIC AGENTS
There are currently four classes of oral anti-diabetic agents:-
i. Biguanides
ii. Insulin Secretagogues - Sulphonylureas
iii.Insulin Secretagogues - Non-sulphonylureas
iv.a-glucosidase inhibitors SETES
v. Thiazolidinediones (TZDs)
59.
60. METFORMIN
● This is the only drug of this class presently available in market It does
not cause hypoglycaemia
● MOA : They increase glucose uptake and utilisation in skeletal
muscle (thereby reducing insulin resistance) and reduce hepatic
glucose production (gluconeogenesis).
● Pharmacokinetic : Metformin has a half-life of about 3 hours and is
excreted unchanged in the urine.
61. SIDE EFFECTS OF METFORMIN
● Dose-related gastrointestinal disturbances
● lactic acidosis is a rare but potentially fatal toxic effect
● Long-term use may interfere with absorption of vitamin B12
● Contra indicatioions :-
Renal failure Hepatic disease Heart failure or shock.
63. NON-SULFONYLUREA SECRETAGOGUES
MEGLITINIDES
● Inhibit KATP Channel of ß-cells
● Very fast onset of action, rapidly metabolized by liver enzymes, with a
peak effect within 1 hour, the duration of action is 5–8 hr. • Short
duration of action and a low risk of hypoglycaemia.
● Medications in this Class: Repaglinide, Nateglinide.
64. THIAZOLIDINEDIONES
● ↓ Insulin resistance by making muscle and adipose cells more
sensitive to insulin.
● They also suppress hepatic glucose production.
Side effects: weight gain, oedema, Hypoglycemia (if taken with insulin)
Contraindication: patients with abnormal LFT or CHF
Medications in this class: Pioglitazone, Rosiglitazone,
65. Drugs Dose Dosage/day Duration of
action

Gliclazide 40-320mg Once daily -
Nateglinide 60-180 mg 3times daily < 4 h
67. TREATMENT OF DIABETES TYPE2
MONOTHERAPY
● If glycaemic control is not achieved (HbA1c > 6.5%) with lifestyle
modification within 1-3 months, ORAL ANTI-DIABETIC AGENT
should be initiated.
● In the presence of marked hyperglycaemia in newly diagnosed
symptomatic type 2 diabetes (HbAlc> 8%, FPG> 11.1 mmol/L), oral
anti- diabetic agents can be considered at the outset together
with lifestyle modification.
