Q

Is insulin required for DM2?

A

Required for some. Disease is progressive and insulin treatment may need to be added to treatment regimen

24
Q

What complications are common for both forms of DM?

A

Vascular and neurological complications

25
Q

What is presentation of DM1?

A

Polyuria, polydipsia, weight loss, fatigue, ketosis, hyperglycaemia, nausea, vomiting, blurry vision

26
Q

What are risk factors of DM1?

A
  • Genetic susceptibility
  • Autoimmunity
  • Environmental (exposure to viruses and triggers in diet)
27
Q

What are risk factors for DM2?

A
  • Genetics
  • Obese
  • Decreased physical activity
  • High fat diet
  • Age
  • Ethnicity
  • Hypertension
  • History of gestational diabetes
28
Q

What are long term complications of diabetes?

A
  • Stroke
  • Hypertension
  • Dermopathy
  • Artherosclosis
  • Nephropathy
  • Peripheral neuropathy
  • Neurogenic bladder
  • Infections
  • Erectile dysfunction
  • Islet cell losee
  • Gastroparesis
  • Coronary artery disease
  • Retinopathy
29
Q

How does hypertension occur in diabetes?

A

Hypertension progresses along with nephropathy

30
Q

What is dermopathy?

A

Small brown lesions on skin

31
Q

What is nephropathy?

A

Damage to kidneys from hyperglycaemia

32
Q

What is peripheral neuropathy?

A

Loss of peripheral sensation due to damage to the axons of the neurons

33
Q

What is neurogenic bladder?

A

Retention of urine in the bladder caused by diabetic neuropathy

34
Q

Why are diabetic patient at increased risk of infections?

A

Impairment of immune system due to hyperglycaemia

35
Q

Why does erectile dysfunction occur with diabetic patients?

A

Due to microvascular disease, peripheral and autonomic neuropathy

36
Q

What does peripheral vascular disease do?

A

Due to narrowed blood vessels there is decreased perfusion, decreasing wound healing

37
Q

What is gastroparesis?

A

Delayed emptying of stomach due to impaired neural control. This occurs since hyperglycaemic damages the axons of nerve cells

38
Q

What is coronary artery disease?

A

Damage to blood vessels causing buildup of plaque due to macro vascular complications

39
Q

What is diabetic retinopathy?

A

Damage to blood vessels in the eye from microvascular changes from hyperglycaemic

40
Q

What drugs address insulin resistance by increasing cellular uptake of glucose and/or improving cellular insulin sensitivity?

A
  • Biguanides (Metformin)
  • Sulfonylureas (Glipizide)
  • Thiazolidinediones (Actos)
41
Q

What drugs increased insulin production by stimulating beta cells or mediating factors that prevent beta cell response to glucose levels

A
  • Sulfonylureas (Glipizide)
  • Didpeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors (Sitagliptin)
  • Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (exentide)
42
Q

What drugs decrease hepatic glucose production?

A
  • Biguanides (Metformin)
  • Sulfonylureas (Glipizide)
  • Didpeptidyl Peptidase-4 Inhibitors (Sitagliptin)
  • Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (exentide)
43
Q

What drugs reduce blood glucose levels by delaying carbohydrate digestion?

A
  • Alpha-Glucosidase Inhibitor (Acarbose)

- Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (exentide)
