Diabetes mellitus (DM) has routinely been described as a metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia that develops as a consequence of defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both.
Such a deficiency results in increased concentrations of glucose in the blood, which in turn damage many of the body's systems, in particular the blood vessels and nerves.
1. Microvascular (due to damage to small blood vessels).
2. Macrovascular (due to damage to larger blood vessels).

Heart failure, sometimes known as congestive heart failure, occurs when your heart muscle doesn't pump blood as well as it should. Certain conditions, such as narrowed arteries in your heart (coronary artery disease) or high blood pressure, gradually leave your heart too weak or stiff to fill and pump efficiently.

A condition in which the force of the blood against the artery walls is too high.
Usually hypertension is defined as blood pressure above 140/90, and is considered severe if the pressure is above 180/120.
Hypertension typically develops over the course of several years. Usually, you don’t notice any symptoms. But even without symptoms, high blood pressure can cause damage to your blood vessels and organs, especially the brain, heart, eyes, and kidneys.
Early detection is important. Regular blood pressure readings can help you and your doctor notice any changes. If your blood pressure is elevated, your doctor may have you check your blood pressure over a few weeks to see if the number stays elevated or falls back to normal levels.
Symptoms of severe hypertension can include: headache,
shortness of breath, nosebleeds, flushing, dizziness, chest pain. visual changes, blood in the urine. These symptoms require immediate medical attention. They don’t occur in everyone with hypertension, but waiting for a symptom of this condition to appear could be fatal.
Treatment for hypertension includes both prescription medication and healthy lifestyle changes. If the condition isn’t treated, it could lead to health issues, including heart attack and stroke.

Flu Vaccine Alert in Bangalore Karnatakaaddon Scans
As flu season approaches, health officials in Bangalore, Karnataka, are urging residents to get their flu vaccinations. The seasonal flu, while common, can lead to severe health complications, particularly for vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and those with underlying health conditions.
Dr. Vidisha Kumari, a leading epidemiologist in Bangalore, emphasizes the importance of getting vaccinated. "The flu vaccine is our best defense against the influenza virus. It not only protects individuals but also helps prevent the spread of the virus in our communities," he says.
This year, the flu season is expected to coincide with a potential increase in other respiratory illnesses. The Karnataka Health Department has launched an awareness campaign highlighting the significance of flu vaccinations. They have set up multiple vaccination centers across Bangalore, making it convenient for residents to receive their shots.
To encourage widespread vaccination, the government is also collaborating with local schools, workplaces, and community centers to facilitate vaccination drives. Special attention is being given to ensuring that the vaccine is accessible to all, including marginalized communities who may have limited access to healthcare.
Residents are reminded that the flu vaccine is safe and effective. Common side effects are mild and may include soreness at the injection site, mild fever, or muscle aches. These side effects are generally short-lived and far less severe than the flu itself.
Healthcare providers are also stressing the importance of continuing COVID-19 precautions. Wearing masks, practicing good hand hygiene, and maintaining social distancing are still crucial, especially in crowded places.
Protect yourself and your loved ones by getting vaccinated. Together, we can help keep Bangalore healthy and safe this flu season. For more information on vaccination centers and schedules, residents can visit the Karnataka Health Department’s official website or follow their social media pages.
Stay informed, stay safe, and get your flu shot today!
The prostate is an exocrine gland of the male mammalian reproductive system
It is a walnut-sized gland that forms part of the male reproductive system and is located in front of the rectum and just below the urinary bladder
Function is to store and secrete a clear, slightly alkaline fluid that constitutes 10-30% of the volume of the seminal fluid that along with the spermatozoa, constitutes semen
A healthy human prostate measures (4cm-vertical, by 3cm-horizontal, 2cm ant-post ).
It surrounds the urethra just below the urinary bladder. It has anterior, median, posterior and two lateral lobes
It’s work is regulated by androgens which are responsible for male sex characteristics
Generalised disease of the prostate due to hormonal derangement which leads to non malignant enlargement of the gland (increase in the number of epithelial cells and stromal tissue)to cause compression of the urethra leading to symptoms (LUTS

4. Peripheral resistance is determined by:
the calibre
total cross-sectional area of the resistance vessels (small arteries and
arterioles).
Factors that increase cardiac output or peripheral resistance therefore
increase blood pressure.
5. Types of hypertension
PRIMARY (ESSENTIAL)
oaccounts for 95% cases of HTN.
ono universally established cause known.
SECONDARY
oless common cause of HTN ( 5%).
osecondary to other potentially rectifiable
causes.
6. Clinical forms of hypertension
Benign
Systole <200mmHg
Diastole <120mmHg
Hyaline arteriosclerosis
Malignant
Systole >200mmHg
Diastole >120mmHg
Hyperplastic arteriosclerosis
10. Mechanisms of essential hypertension
Genetic factors
This is evidenced by:
i. Familial aggregation
ii. Occurrence of hypertension in twins
iii. Identification of hypertension susceptible gene (angiotensinogen gene)
11. Mechanisms of essential hypertension
Reduced sodium excretion
The kidney plays a key role in long-term control of blood pressure
excretion of salt and water controls intravascular volume.
12. Mechanisms of essential hypertension
Gene defects in enzymes involved in aldosterone metabolism such as:
aldosterone synthase
11 beta-hydroxylase
17 alpha-hydroxylase
lead to increased aldosterone secretion.
This leads to increased sodium and water retention
hence increased plasma volume and blood pressure.
15. Mechanisms of essential hypertension
Environmental factors such as stress ,obesity and smoking modify the impact of genetic
determinants thus leading to hypertension.
Increased vascular resistance.- due to vasoconstriction of small arteries and arterioles or
structural changes in vessel wall
