Endo step Up Flashcards
when is insuline released
response to glucose intake
secreted by pancreatic beta islet cell
effects of insulin
induce glucose and aa uptake by muscle, adipose and liver
glucose to glycogen fatty acids and pyruvate
inhibits lipolysis
where and when is glucagon released
by alpha islet cells in response to decreased glucose and protein intake
promotes breakdown of glycogen and fatty acids
What HLA is assoc with DM I
HLA DR3 DR4 and DQ
signs of DM I
polyuria polydipsia, polyphagia, weight loss
rapid onset
labs of DMI I
hyperglycemia, glycosuria, serum and urine ketones, increase HbA1c
what happens if DM I patient gives too much insulin
hypoglycemia
what illnesses are associated with onset beta cell destruction
rubella
coxsackie virus and mumps
risk factors DM II
FMH obesity metabolic syndrome, lack of exercise, gestational DM
Dx criteria DM
random plasma glucose >200 with Sx
fasting glucose >126 on 2 separate occasions
plasma glucose >200 2 hrs after 75 g oral glucose load
HbA1c>6.5%
what are the rapid acting insulin
lispro, asoart and glulisine
what are the long acting insulins
NPH, glargine and detemir
diabetic ketoacidosis is complication of what
DM I only
complication dM II
hyperosmolar hyperglycemic nonketotic syndrome retinopathy nephropathy neuropathy atherosclerosis
what leads to DKA
low insulin
glucagon excess leading to dehydration of TG that eventually turn to ketoacids
so not taking insuline or have infection,stress, MI or high alcohol use
signs DKA
weakness, polyuria, polydipsia, abdominal pain, vomiting, dry mucous membranes, decreased skin turgor, fruity odor on breath, hyperventilation, kussmaul breathing, mental status changes from dehydration
how does metformin work
decrease hepatic gluconeogenesis
increase insulin sensitivity
side effects metformin
GI
dec B12 absorption
CI in those with hepatic or renal insufficiency
what are the sulfonylurea drug names
glyburide glimepriride, glipizide
how do sulfonlyureas work
stimulate insulin release from beta cells, reduce serum glucagon, increase binding insulin to tissue R
adverse effects of sulfonylureas
hypoglycemia. CI in those with hepatic or renal insufficiency
Mechanism of thiazolidinediones
decrease gluconeogenesis
increase insulin sensitivity
thiazolidinediones are CI in what patients
CHF
what are the gliptins
DDP-IV inhibitors that inhibit degradation of incretin. cause decreased glucagon and increased insulin
delay gastric emptying so can cause diarrhea or constipation
what are the gliflozins
SGLT-2 inhibitors that inhibit renal reabsorption of glucose, lowering BP
can cause fungal infections or recurrent UTI
how does acarbose work
alpha glucosidase inhibitor that decrease GI absorption of starch
cause flatulance
what drugs stimulate insulin release
meglitinides
can cause hypoglycemia
and sulfonylureas
what drug promotes satiety in DM
pramlintide, delays gastric emptying
labs in DKA
high glucose like 300-800, decreased Na normal or inc K (total body K decreased) so pseudohyperkalemia dec phosphate high anion gap acidosis serum and urine ketones
Tx DKA
IV saline, insulin, KCl
labs in hyperosmolar hyperglycemic state
glucose >800 and commonly above 1000
what are signs of DM retinopathy
AV nicking, hemorrhages, edema and infarcts
type of nephropathy in DM
glomerulosclerosis, mesangial expansion and BM degeneration
signs of DM nephropathy
proteinuria, renal insufficiency later turns into nephrotic
labs in DM nephropathy
hypoalbuminemia, increased Cr, increased BUN, UA showing proteinuria and microalbuminuria, EM show thickening and kimmelstiel wilson nodules
Autonomic neuropathy in DM
postural hypotension, impotence and incontenence and gastroparesis
why are DM at highger risk silent MI
altered pain sensation from neuropathy
greatest cause of death in DM patients
cardiac
macrovascular disease
signs of hypoglycemia
fainting, weakness, diaphoresis, palpitations (from epinephrine release)
headache, confusion, mental changes, decreased consciousness
causes of hypoglycemia
reactive- post eating iatrogenic (too much insulin) insulinoma (beta islet cell tumor) fasting (under production glucose) alcohol induced pituitary/adrenal insufficiency- decreased cortisol leads to insuffiecient hepatic gluconeogenesis
what stiulates and inhibits TRH
cold stimulates
stress inhibits
TSH comes from where
ant pituitary
which thyroid hormone is more potent
T3
what increase TBG levels
pregnancy and OCP
free T4 stays same
what decrease TBG levels
nephrotic syndrome and androgen use
normal free T4
signs of thyroid storm
severe diaphoresis, vomiting, diarrhea, tachy, fever and mental changes
what happens in graves
autoimmune TSI Ab bind to TSH R and stimulate hormone production
what is toxic multinodular goiter or toxic adenoma
single or multiple
produce excess thyroid hormones
increased uptake at nodules on scan
What is subacute thyroiditis
de quervain enlarged thyroid maybe from virus painful goiter neck pain, fever, increased ESR decreased uptake!!!!
Tx subacute thyroiditis
NSAIDs, beta blockers
silent thyroiditis
temporary may follow pregnancy low uptake on scan Bx will show inflammation beta blockers for sx. self limited
