Q

This type of diabetes ________ refers to glucose intolerance with onset or first recognition during pregnancy

A

Gestational diabetes mellitus

22
Q

Type ___ diabetes mellitus
-characterized by impaired insulin secretion and/or resistance of target cells to its effects
- generally a later age of onset
-multiple pathways leading to this type
- majority of diabetics are this type
-prediabetes is a precursor state
-can progress to the other type

23
Q

Type 2 diabetes is characterized by impaired ___ secretion or resistance of target cells to its effects

24
Q

Does type 1 or type 2 diabetes have a later age of onset ?

25
Majority of diabetics are type ___
2
26
Type ___ DM can progress to type ____
2 , 1
27
Formal fasting range is < ___mmol/L
6
28
Are diabetes rates going up or down?
Up
29
90% of people who develop type 2 diabetes are ____
Over weight
30
Does chronic over eating increase or decrease blood glucose ?
Increase
31
Since the ___ cells are the “sensors” for insulin release, they may be more vulnerable to the by-products for their own metabolism
Beta
32
Chronic insulin secretion can cause ___ cell exhaustion therefore type 2 progresses to IDDM, type 1
Beta
33
___ drugs for type 2 DM -improved A1C and glucose control as single drugs -,echanisms of actions ; increased fat storage in the adipocyte, effectively reducing circulating fatty acids, blood glucose, and hyperinsulinemia
TZD

Glucostatic theory
49
____ theory - theory proposes that the level of body fat regulates the feeding and satiety centres Discovery of several peptides from adipose tissue seems to support this theory.
Lipostatic
50
______ Increases in response to decreased body fat Increases in response to increased muscle mass Is impacted by macronutrient content of meals and can be regulated by diet
