diabetes Flashcards
glucagon is produced in
alpha cells in the pancrease
insulin is produced in
Beta cells in pancrease
ketones
glucagon signals fat cells to maek ketonees as an alternative energy source
DKA
typically in T1 Diabetes
C peptde level is very low or absent T1D is diagnosed
diabetes in pregnancy
before pregnancy
during pregnancy- gestational
- in anycase BG goals are more stringent
can cause fetus to be larger
oral glucose test OGTT at 24-28 weeks
symptoms
poly uria
polyphagia (hunger)
polydipsia (THIRST)
Diagnosis
HG A1C >6.5 A1C
fasting plasma glucose (8hours or more) >126
OGTT(2 hours after drinking glucose) >200
pregnant diagnosis for Diabetes
pre prandial>95. (80-130)
1 hr PPG 140. (-)
2 hour >120. (normal 180)
what are some microvascular complications of diabetes
retinopathy
diabetic kidney disease
peripheral neuropathy
autonomic neuropathy
what are some macrovascular disease
coronary artery disease (CAD) including MI
Cerebrovascular disease (CVA)
peripheral artery disease (PAD)
*kinda like ASCVD
is aspirin recomended for primary prevention
NOPE only secondary prevention
CAD/PAD aspirin + lowdose rivaroxaban
used in pregancy to reduce risk of preeclampsia
statin therapy
High if diabetes + ASCVD
age 50-75 with multiple ASCVD
moderate if diabetes with no ASCVD
diabetes +ASCVD
what are some natural products used in T2D
cinamon
alpha lipoic acid
chromium
magnesium
ginseng
treatment options
metformin- 1st line
when to use 2 drugs
A1c 8.5-10
when ASCVD risk
when to use insulin
A1C >10 or PPG >300
refer to page 616
for Treatment pathway
what is metformin
GLucophage
Biguanide that decrease hepatic glucose production, absorption of glucose in the intestines
increase insulin sensitivity
can lower 1-2%
can cause GI effects
should not be used in eGFR<30, metabolic acidosis
max 2000-2550
metformin should be stopped before
Dye use
topiramate use can increase risk of metabolic acidosis
what are some SGLT2 inhibitros
Canagliflozin invokana
dapagliflozin farxiga
empagliflozin jardiance
does SGLT2 cause weight gain
no weight losss
does metformin cause weight gain
no weight neutral
does SGLT2 cause hypoglycemia
YES
does metfomin cause hypoglycemia
nope
VITB12 defeciency
which diabetes med can be used in HF
SGLT2
dapagli
canagli
empagli
what are some risks for sglt2
dialysis
can cause hypo
<30 should not be used
urosepsis
hypotension aki ketoacidosis
how much Ac1 is reduced by SGLT2
0.7-1%
SGLT2 MOA
proximal renal tubules inhibits SGLT reducing reabsorption of glucose and increase urinary glucose excretion
GLP 1 agonist MOA
increase insulin secretion
decrease glucagon secretion
slows gastric emptying
improves satiety
weight loss
what are some GLP1
liraglutide or victoza, saxenda
dulaglutide or trulicity
semaglutide or OZempic or rybelsus is oral
how much A1c lowering by GLP
0.5-1.5
what can you not use with GLP and why
DPP4 uses same pathway
GLP can increase INR
true
weight loss is true for GLP
YES
GLP can cause hypoglycemia ?
true
sulfonylurea MOA
stimulate insulin secretion
what are some clinical pearls of sulfonul ureas
can cause weight gain
sulfa allergy
take 30 mins before meal
what are some sulfonulureas
glipizide or glucotrol
glimeperide or amaryl
glyburide or glynase
how much A1c can be reduced by sulfonulureas
1-2%
what is the MOA of meglinitides
same as sulfonylurea
