Q

What causes blurred vision seen in DM I?

A

Hyperosmolar state

25
What causes the weight loss seen in DM I?
Depletion of water | Loss of muscle mass
26
What causes the weakness/dizziness seen in DM I?
Postural hypotension | K loss and loss of muscle catabolism
27
What causes the paresthesias seen in DM I?
Temporary peripheral sensory nerve dysfunction
28
What causes LOC with DM I?
Dehydration of tissues | DKA
29
What are the three ways to manage DM I?
Diet Edu Insulin
30
Why can insulin not be given PO?
Peptide would be degraded by GI
31
What are the two causes of DM II?
Insulin resistance or secretory defect (or both)
32
What happens to Beta cell mass in DM II?
Increase since there is no uptake of glucose
33
What happens to the insulin receptors in DM II?
Less of them OR decrease affinity to insulin
34
What are the three adipokines?
Leptin IL-6 TNF-alpha
35
What is the effect of adipokines?
Recruits immune cells
36
Can an increase in insulin and beta cell mass overcome insulin resistance?
Yes
37
What causes the increased beta cell stress in DM II?
Increased ER stress Adipokines Ectopic fat deposition in islets
38
What is metabolic syndrome?
Hyperglycemia associated with: Hyperinsulinemia Dyslipidemia HTN
39
Metabolic syndrome can lead to what?
CAD and Stroke
40
What is the effect of insulin on Na retention?
Increases
41
What is the effect of insulin on VLDL secretion?
Increases
42
What is the effect of insulin on vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation? What does this result in?
Increases--results in atherosclerosis
43
What is the significance of metabolic syndrome on management?
Changes therapeutic approach
44
Which DM type has a higher concordance rate between monozygotic twins?
Type II
45
What are the genes that predispose someone to DM II involved in?
Beta cell function
46
Why are infections more common in DM II?
high sugar blood = good for bacteria
47
What are the classic, severe signs/symptoms of DM II?
Polyuria, polydipsia, blurred vision, weakness
48
What are the pharmacologic strategies toward DM II?
1. Increase insulin secretion or action 2. Inhibits gluconeogenesis 3. Inhibit glucose digestion/absorption 4. Suppress glucagon
49
What is the effect of drugs that mimic GLP1 on treating DM II?
Promotes insulin secretion
50
What is the effect of drugs that inhibit DDPP4 on treating DM II?
inhibits GLP1 degradation
51
What is the effect of drugs that sulfonylurease and meglitinde analogs on treating DM II?
Inhibits that ATP sensitive K pump on beta cells which closes the channel and causes a depolarization
52
What is the effect of drugs that thiazolidinediones on treating DM II?
Promote the expression of GLUT1 and GLUT4, and thus increase glucose uptake in peripheral tissues
53
What are the symptoms of hypoglycemia?
``` Tachycardia Sweating Tremors Nausea Hunger ```
54
What are neuroglycopenia symptoms
``` Irritability Confusion HA Speech difficulty Blurred vision LOC ```
55
What is the treatment for hypoglycemia?
Glucagon/glucose
56
What causes DKA?
insulin deficiency causes lipolysis, causing acidification of the blood
57
When is DKA seen in DM II pts?
Sepsis, trauma, or surgery
58
What are the treatment goals of DKA?
Restore plasma volume Reduces glucose Correct acidosis Replenish electrolytes
