Q

gluconeogensis

A

lactacte/AA -> glucose

insulin inhibts this

17
Q

lipolysis

A

TAG -> FA + Glycerol

insulin inhibits this

18
Q

ketogenesis

A

FA -> ketones

insulin inhibits this

19
Q

Lipogenesis

A

Glucose/AA -> TAG

insulin promotes this

20
Q

periperhal neuropathy

A

limited sensation in peripheries
may promote damage, abrasion or ulcers
hyperglycaemia reduces immune function and blood flow

21
Q

how many patients who develop foot ulcers willl require amputation

A

20%

22
Q

exercise impliactions of diabetes

A

– Vision may be impaired
– Joints may hurt (so consider low impact activities)
– Consider peripheral sensation (tripping + avoidance of cuts)
– Appropriate footwear (avoid blisters)

23
Q

risk factors of diabetes

A
overweigth/obesity 
physical inactivty 
diet 
metabolic syndrome 
ethnicity 
family history 
age 
sex
history of gestational diabetes
24
Q

benefical effects of exercsie for type I

A
fitness 
insulin requirements 
lipids 
endotheial function 
mortaility 
insulin resistance 
CVD 
well being
25
Q

benefical effects of exercsie for Type II

A
fitness 
insulin requirements 
lipids 
endotheial function 
mortaility 
insulin resistance 
CVD
blood pressure 
beta cell function 
glycaemic control
26
Q

effect of exercise on mechanisms

A

increased GLUT 4 protein load and translocation

increased GLUT4 Gene actiavtion

27
Q

recommendations aerobic

A

mod to vig
at least 150 mins MVPA
3-7 days a week
HIIT and continous

28
Q

resistance training

A

8-10 exercises
1-3 sets
10-15 reps

29
Q

overall benefits of exercise

A
social 
improved QoL 
decreased fear of disease 
improved self esteem 
improved metabolic health
increased muscel mass
improved body composition 
improved insulin sensivity 
increased GLUT4 protein load + translocation 
lower CVD risk
30
Q

non/pre-proliferative retinopathy

A

widespread death of periocytes
leaky blood flow due to endothelial growth
- micro-aneurism
- LDL bulid up on back of eye - hard exudates

deteced during eye exam

31
Q

diabetes without retinopathy

A

pericytes exposed to excessive amounts of glucose
unable to process
results in increased blood flow and endothelial cell growth
- no symptons, unable to detect

32
Q

what is role of pericytes

A

pericytes found on capillaries in the eye
help control blood flow and vasotone
prevents endothlial cell proliferation

33
Q

proliferative retionpathy

A
angiogensis - formation of new blood vessels
retina is hypoxic due to leaks
vasodilation 
VEGF released - encourages angiogensis 
increased blood vessels
can causes detached retina
34
Q

neuropathy = kidney

A

1/5 with diabetes will need kidney treatment
hyperglycemia causes vasoconctriction of efferent
increases pressure in bowmans
damages mesangial
inflammation and oxidatiive stress
capilaries become more leaky = loss of proteins
