The document reviews criteria for diagnosing diabetes and pre-diabetes, treatment goals, and therapeutic options. It discusses classifying diabetes types 1 and 2, criteria for diagnosis including HbA1c, fasting plasma glucose and oral glucose tolerance tests. Goals for glycemic control include HbA1c less than 7% and fasting/post-prandial blood glucose targets. Treatment options include lifestyle changes, metformin, other oral medications, and insulin to lower blood glucose and achieve goals.
Epidemiology of Diabetes Mellitus
This document discusses the epidemiology of diabetes mellitus. It defines diabetes as a metabolic disorder resulting from defects in insulin secretion or action that causes high blood sugar. There are three main types of diabetes: type 1 caused by lack of insulin production; type 2 caused by insulin resistance; and gestational diabetes during pregnancy. The magnitude of diabetes is large, with nearly half of all cases found in China, India, and the US. In India specifically, there are 65.1 million people with diabetes, with a prevalence of 8.56% that is projected to increase to 87 million cases by 2030. The epidemiological determinants of diabetes include agent factors like pancreatic disorders, host factors like age and genetics, and environmental risks such
Diabetes risks and complications 2010
This document provides information about diabetes, including:
- There are several types of diabetes defined by etiology and treatment needs. Type 1 is insulin dependent while Type 2 is typically non-insulin dependent.
- Diabetes is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular, eye, kidney, and neurological complications if not properly managed and controlled. Tight glycemic control is important to reduce risks.
- Risk factors include family history, obesity, age, and ethnicity. Management involves lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, and medication to control blood sugar, lipids, and blood pressure.

Diabetes Prevention Powerpoint
Type 2 diabetes is a condition where the body cannot effectively control blood sugar levels. It develops over many years as the body becomes resistant to the effects of insulin. Prediabetes occurs when blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be diagnosed as diabetes. The best way to prevent type 2 diabetes is through lifestyle changes like regular physical activity and modest weight loss. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle can significantly reduce risk of developing diabetes and its serious health complications.
Diabetes
This document provides an overview of diabetes mellitus, including the different types of diabetes, diagnostic criteria, epidemiology, natural history, screening, and prevention. It describes Type 1 diabetes as immune-mediated and requiring insulin treatment, while Type 2 is more common and often associated with obesity and aging. India has a high prevalence of diabetes, accounting for many children with Type 1. Risk factors include genetics, obesity, physical inactivity, and various infections or chemicals that can damage pancreatic beta cells. Screening high-risk groups and early treatment aim to prevent complications through managing blood glucose and self-care.
Global report diabetes
Diabetes is a serious, chronic disease that occurs either when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin (a hormone that regulates blood glucose), or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces (1). Raised blood glucose, a common effect of uncontrolled diabetes, may, over time, lead to serious damage to the heart, blood vessels, eyes, kidneys and nerves. More than 400 million people live with diabetes.

Attendees will learn to determine if they have diabetes, control blood sugar levels, and identify types 1, 2, and 3 diabetes. The presentation covers symptoms, testing blood sugar levels, diet, exercise, medications, and the importance of eating well and exercising regularly to prevent and control diabetes.
Prevention of type 2 diabetes
The document discusses the role of genes in the HLA region and insulin gene in determining risk of type 1 diabetes, prevention of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, and future expectations such as pancreas transplants, islet cell transplants to the liver, and use of seaweed-derived housing to protect transplanted islet cells from immune system rejection. It also examines causes of type 2 diabetes including metabolic syndrome and findings from the Diabetes Prevention Program on preventing progression from pre-diabetes to type 2 diabetes through lifestyle changes and metformin.
Epidemiology diabetes
1) Diabetes is a growing global problem, with an estimated 415 million cases worldwide as of 2015. Rates are increasing rapidly in developing countries.
2) South East Asia will be particularly challenged, with projections of 140.2 million cases in the region by 2040 due to risks like changing lifestyles and diets.
3) Diabetes poses serious health risks like heart disease and kidney failure and is a major cause of death. Without proper management of the disease and associated risk factors, these complications can reduce life expectancy in diabetic patients.
Pre Diabetes
1. The study aimed to compare the blood glucose lowering effects of the traditional Indian plant Vijayasar (Pterocarpus marsupium) and the pharmaceutical agent tolbutamide in managing diabetes.
2. A total of 365 newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes patients were randomized to receive either Vijayasar or tolbutamide for 36 weeks.
3. The results showed that Vijayasar was as effective as tolbutamide in lowering blood glucose with no significant differences in effects on lipids or safety profiles.

Diabetes Presentation
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease where the body's immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. People with type 1 diabetes must take insulin daily to survive, unlike type 2 diabetes where the body may still produce some insulin. Symptoms of type 1 diabetes include increased thirst, frequent urination, extreme hunger, weight loss, fatigue, and blurred vision. While the exact causes are unknown, genetics and environmental triggers are thought to play a role. Without proper treatment of daily insulin and blood sugar monitoring, complications can include damage to organs and tissues throughout the body. Currently there is no cure for type 1 diabetes.

Understanding diabetes
There are two different types of diabetes. Type I and Type II. Type I Diabetes is usually diagnosed in children and very young adults. Type I Diabetes differs from Type II in that a person with Type I Diabetes does not produce insulin at all. Insulin is needed to take sugar from the blood into the cells. Type I diabetes used to be called Juvenile Diabetes as it was diagnosed in children at early ages. The symptoms of Type I and Type II Diabetes are very similar. Frequent urination, frequent thirst, excessive hunger are three of the most common symptoms.

how to reverse your diabetes
Type 2 diabetes develops due to obesity and insulin resistance, but can be managed or even reversed through lifestyle changes like diet and exercise. Weight loss through calorie reduction and increased physical activity is the primary way some people have experienced remission of type 2 diabetes. Eating a low-carb diet and regular exercise may help lose weight and reduce diabetes symptoms enough to reverse the condition for some, though it requires long-term commitment. Type 1 diabetes cannot be reversed as it is an autoimmune disease treated through insulin therapy.
Causes of diabetes
The document discusses the causes, symptoms, and prevention of types 1 and 2 diabetes. Type 1 diabetes occurs when the immune system attacks and destroys insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Its symptoms include extreme thirst and frequent urination. While there is no way to prevent type 1 diabetes, managing blood sugar levels through insulin therapy and monitoring is important. Type 2 diabetes is caused by the body becoming resistant to insulin and not using it efficiently, potentially due to genetic and lifestyle factors like poor diet and lack of exercise. Maintaining a healthy diet, daily exercise, and normal weight can help prevent and manage type 2 diabetes.
Diabetes control tips
This document provides information about diabetes, including the different types of diabetes (type 1, type 2, gestational), signs and symptoms, and importance of taking care of diabetes to prevent serious health problems. It emphasizes the role of a healthcare team in diabetes management, which may include providers like endocrinologists, dietitians, nurses, pharmacists, as well as specialists like ophthalmologists, podiatrists, and dentists. Managing diabetes requires daily self-care activities like following a healthy eating plan, being physically active, taking medications as prescribed, and monitoring blood sugar levels.

What is Diabetes?
Español (Spanish) | Print
Closeup of dictionary page showing definition of diabetes
With diabetes, your body either doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use it as well as it should.
Diabetes is a chronic (long-lasting) health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy.
Your body breaks down most of the food you eat into sugar (glucose) and releases it into your bloodstream. When your blood sugar goes up, it signals your pancreas to release insulin. Insulin acts like a key to let the blood sugar into your body’s cells for use as energy.
With diabetes, your body doesn’t make enough insulin or can’t use it as well as it should. When there isn’t enough insulin or cells stop responding to insulin, too much blood sugar stays in your bloodstream. Over time, that can cause serious health problems, such as heart disease, vision loss, and kidney disease.
There isn’t a cure yet for diabetes, but losing weight, eating healthy food, and being active can really help. Other things you can do to
Types of Diabetes
There are three main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes (diabetes while pregnant).
Type 1 Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is thought to be caused by an autoimmune reaction (the body attacks itself by mistake). This reaction stops your body from making insulin. Approximately 5-10% of the people who have diabetes have type 1. Symptoms of type 1 diabetes often develop quickly. It’s usually diagnosed in children, teens, and young adults. If you have type 1 diabetes, you’ll need to take insulin every day to survive. Currently, no one knows how to prevent type 1 diabetes.
Type 2 Diabetes
With type 2 diabetes, your body doesn’t use insulin well and can’t keep blood sugar at normal levels. About 90-95% of people with diabetes have type 2. It develops over many years and is usually diagnosed in adults (but more and more in children, teens, and young adults). You may not notice any symptoms, so it’s important to get your blood sugar tested if you’re at risk. Type 2 diabetes can be prevented or delayed with healthy lifestyle changes, such as:
Losing weight.
Eating healthy food.
Being active.
Gestational Diabetes
Gestational diabetes develops in pregnant women who have never had diabetes. If you have gestational diabetes, your baby could be at higher risk for health problems. Gestational diabetes usually goes away after your baby is born. However, it increases your risk for type 2 diabetes later in life. Your baby is more likely to have obesity as a child or teen and develop type 2 diabetes later in life.

There are four main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, gestational diabetes, and pre-diabetes. Type 1 is usually diagnosed in childhood and requires daily insulin injections. Type 2 is the most common type and is often linked to obesity. Gestational diabetes occurs during pregnancy, and pre-diabetes means blood sugar levels are higher than normal but not high enough to be classified as type 1 or 2. Common symptoms of diabetes include frequent urination, thirst, hunger, and fatigue. Testing involves fasting plasma glucose tests and oral glucose tolerance tests. Managing diabetes involves diet, exercise, medication and monitoring blood sugar levels. Long-term complications can affect the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves and skin if diabetes is
Everything You Need to Know About Diabetes
Diabetes is a chronic disease that affects how your body turns food into energy. There are two main types of diabetes: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease that causes your body to attack and destroy the cells that produce insulin. Insulin is a hormone that helps your body's cells use glucose for energy. Type 2 diabetes is the most common form of diabetes and occurs when your body becomes resistant to insulin or doesn't make enough insulin to maintain normal glucose levels.
Diabetes mellitus
This document provides information about diabetes, including the different types. It discusses that diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases where a person has high blood sugar because their body either does not produce insulin (type 1 diabetes) or does not properly use the insulin it produces (type 2 diabetes). Type 1 diabetes is often diagnosed in children and requires insulin treatment. Type 2 diabetes most commonly occurs in adults and can be caused by obesity. Lifestyle changes like diet and exercise are important for managing both type 1 and type 2 diabetes.
What you need to know about diabetes
The document discusses diabetes, its types and causes. It claims world medical experts have discovered a cure for all types of diabetes and provides a link to learn more. However, the majority of the document provides factual information about diabetes, including that it is a disease where the body does not properly produce or use insulin. It discusses the different types of diabetes, risk factors like obesity and family history, symptoms, and lifestyle changes that can help prevent or manage diabetes, such as diet, exercise and weight control.
UNDERSTANDING AND DEFEATING THE SILENT KILLER
Diabetes is a chronic condition that affects millions of people worldwide. Understanding and managing diabetes is crucial to prevent its negative impacts on your health. With the right information and strategy in place, you can successfully control your blood sugar levels and lead a healthy and fulfilling life. In this blog, we will explore the causes, symptoms, and consequences of diabetes, along with preventive measures and management techniques to tackle this silent killer head-on. So, let's dive right in and learn how to keep diabetes at bay.
Diabetes mellitus
Diabetes is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by high blood sugar levels resulting from defects in insulin production, insulin action, or both. There are three main types of diabetes: type 1, type 2, and gestational diabetes. Type 1 diabetes is caused by an autoimmune destruction of the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. Type 2 diabetes occurs when the body becomes resistant to insulin or does not produce enough insulin. Gestational diabetes affects females during pregnancy. Diabetes is diagnosed through blood and urine tests and managed through diet, exercise, medication and monitoring of blood sugar levels. Complications of diabetes can be prevented through proper treatment and management of the condition.
Prevention and cure about diabeties
Diabetes is a disease caused by high blood sugar levels. It occurs when the body cannot properly produce or use the hormone insulin to regulate blood sugar. There are three main types of diabetes: Type 1 caused by lack of insulin production; Type 2 caused by insulin resistance; and gestational diabetes during pregnancy. Symptoms include increased thirst, hunger, urination and fatigue. Risk factors include age, weight, family history, and ethnicity. While there is no cure, diabetes can be controlled through lifestyle changes like diet, exercise, weight loss and medication. The diabetes epidemic is rapidly increasing in the US, affecting over 30% of the population.
What is diabetes
Diabetes is a metabolic disorder where blood glucose levels are too high due to the body's inability to properly use or produce insulin. There are two main types of diabetes - type 1 where the body does not produce insulin and type 2 where the body does not properly use insulin. If left uncontrolled, diabetes can lead to serious complications that damage the eyes, kidneys, nerves, heart, and blood vessels. Treatment involves healthy eating, physical activity, medication, insulin as needed, and monitoring of blood glucose levels. Uncontrolled diabetes significantly increases the risk of blindness, heart disease, kidney disease and other health issues.
Type 2 Diabetic Essay
Type 2 diabetes is caused by lifestyle factors like lack of exercise, poor diet, obesity, and family history. People with type 2 diabetes cannot properly regulate their blood sugar levels due to insufficient insulin production or cells ignoring insulin. They must carefully manage their diet, exercise regularly, and potentially take medication or insulin injections to control their blood sugar and prevent serious health complications affecting organs like the eyes, kidneys, heart, and nerves.

Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune Disease
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

What Pre-Diabetes Is And What The Risk Factors Are For Pre-Diabetes
- 2. Introduction Prevention is always the best way with any disease and is even more important with diabetes and the various symptoms of diabetes especially if you think you or a loved one is at risk and are wondering what pre-diabetes is and what the risk factors for pre-diabetes are. Not being ignorant of your risk factors will help you determine the actions you need to take to reduce your risks of developing diabetes and the various symptoms of diabetes.
- 3. What is Diabetes? Diabetes relates to how the body processes carbohydrates and sugars that we consume in our daily food. When these carbohydrates and sugars enter the body, they are converted into glucose which is the simplest form of sugar and distributed to the blood. When this distribution to the blood occurs, the pancreas immediately kicks in and produces insulin which is a hormone that removes the glucose from the blood and distributes it to various parts of the body that need this glucose for energy.
- 5. As you can see, diabetes is no joke and if you can reduce your risk of developing this condition or delay the onset of diabetes and the symptoms of diabetes, you need to do everything you can to accomplish this.
- 7. When some people are at high risk for developing Type 2 diabetes, they are usually monitored closely by their doctors which leads to a possible diagnosis of pre-diabetes. Pre-diabetes means that although the blood glucose levels are higher than what is considered normal, they are not high enough to warrant a diabetes 2 diagnosis.
- 9. When you are determined to be pre-diabetic, your doctor will usually monitor your blood glucose levels on a annual basis to ensure that the levels remain at a healthy rate. He or she will usually advise you to invest in a blood sugar monitor to be used by you regularly to check your blood sugar levels and make changes as needed depending on the results shown on the monitor.
- 10. What Are The Pre-Diabetes Risk Factors? a. Have a family history of Type 2 diabetes b. If you suffered from gestational diabetes during your pregnancy or pregnancies c. If you are obese or overweight and/or lead a sedentary lifestyle with no physical activity d. If you are at least 45 years of age
- 11. Conclusion TAKE ACTION NOW! This is only a brief discussion of pre-diabetes and diabetes in general.
