Q

Mechanism of Cataract in DM

A
  • Non enzymatic glycation of lens protein and subsequent cross linking
  • Sorbitol accumulation could also lead to osmotic swelling of the lens but evidence of involvement in cataract formation is less strong

Q

Prevelance & Incidence of Ritonapthy in DM

A
  • DR is the leading cause of blindness in the working population of the Western world
  • The prevalence increase with the duration of the disease
  • (Few within 5 years, 80 – 100% will have some form of DR after 20 years)

Q

Prevelance in Diabetic Nephropathy

A
  • Diabetes has become the most common cause of end stage renal failure in the US and Europe
  • 50 % of dialysis patients have DM
  • About 20 – 30 % of patients with diabetes develop evidence of nephropathy
  • The prevalence of DN is higher in Black Americans than in Whites

Symptoms of Sensory Neuropathy

A
21
Q

Early symptoms of Sensory Neuropathy

A

pain & paresthesia. It bilateral & symmetrical, starting in the lower limb then upper limb

22
Q

Late Symptoms of Sensory Neuropathy

A

stock & glove hyposthesia occur

23
Q

Tendon Jerk in Sensory Neuropathy

A

There may be lost ankle & preserved knee jerk

24

36
Q

Screening for Nephropathy disease

A
37
Q

Why we do screening for Micro albuminuria?

A
  • Increased risk for overt nephropathy
  • Increased cardiovascular mortality
  • Increased risk of Retinopathy
  • Increased all-cause mortality

So Microalbuminuria is an indication for screening for possible vascular disease and aggressive intervention to reduce all cardiovascular risk factors.
