1. Diabetes Mellitus
The name “diabetes mellitus means sweet urine. It stems from ancient times when physicians would taste a patients urine as a part of a diagnosis.

2. Definition
Hyperglycemia due to Absolute or relative deficiency of insulin.

3. What is Diabetes?
A condition in which the body cannot make or cannot use insulin properly

4. Pancreas
The pancreas functions as both an exocrine and an endocrine gland
Exocrine function is associated with the digestive system .
Endocrine Function: produces two important hormones in Islets of Langerhans, insulin and glucagon
α –Glucagon
Β-Insulin
δ-Somatostatin
PP-Pancreatic polypeptide
Γ-Gastrin

Other types:
LADA (
MODY (maturity-onset diabetes of youth)
Secondary Diabetes Mellitus

11. Type 1 diabetes
Was previously called insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) or juvenile-onset diabetes.
Type 1 diabetes develops when the body’s immune system destroys pancreatic beta cells, the only cells in the body that make the hormone insulin that regulates blood glucose.
This form of diabetes usually strikes children and young adults, although disease onset can occur at any age.
Type 1 diabetes may account for 5% to 10% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.
Risk factors for type 1 diabetes may include autoimmune, genetic, and environmental factors.

16. Associated Autoimmune Disorders
Thyroid (Hashimoto’s, Graves’): 5-10%
Celiac Disease: 6%
Addison’s disease: <1%

17. Type 2 diabetes
Was previously called non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) or adult-onset diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes may account for about 90% to 95% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.
It usually begins as insulin resistance, a disorder in which the cells do not use insulin properly. As the need for insulin rises, the pancreas gradually loses its ability to produce insulin.
Type 2 diabetes is associated with older age, obesity, family history of diabetes, history of gestational diabetes, impaired glucose metabolism, physical inactivity, and race/ethnicity.
African Americans, Hispanic/Latino Americans, American Indians, and some Asian Americans and Native Hawaiians or Other Pacific Islanders are at particularly high risk for type 2 diabetes.
Type 2 diabetes is increasingly being diagnosed in children and adolescents.

19. Gestational diabetes
A form of glucose intolerance that is diagnosed in some women during pregnancy.
Gestational diabetes occurs more frequently among African Americans, Hispanic/Latino Americans, and American Indians. It is also more common among obese women and women with a family history of diabetes.
During pregnancy, gestational diabetes requires treatment to normalize maternal blood glucose levels to avoid complications in the infant.
After pregnancy, 5% to 10% of women with gestational diabetes are found to have type 2 diabetes.
Women who have had gestational diabetes have a 20% to 50% chance of developing diabetes in the next 5-10 years.

20. Other types of DM
Other specific types of diabetes result from specific genetic conditions (such as maturity-onset diabetes of youth), surgery, drugs, malnutrition, infections, and other illnesses.
Such types of diabetes may account for 1% to 5% of all diagnosed cases of diabetes.

21. LADA
Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) is a form of autoimmune (type 1 diabetes) which is diagnosed in individuals who are older than the usual age of onset of type 1 diabetes.
Alternate terms that have been used for "LADA" include Late-onset Autoimmune Diabetes of Adulthood, "Slow Onset Type 1" diabetes, and sometimes also "Type 1.5
Often, patients with LADA are mistakenly thought to have type 2 diabetes, based on their age at the time of diagnosis.
Autoimmune (type 1 diabetes)
type 2 diabetes

22. MODY MODY – Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young
MODY is a monogenic form of diabetes with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance
Originally, diagnosis of MODY was based on presence of non-ketotic hyperglycemia in adolescents or young adults in conjunction with a family history of diabetes.
However, genetic testing has shown that MODY can occur at any age and that a family history of diabetes is not always obvious.

23. Secondary DM Secondary causes of Diabetes mellitus include:
Acromegaly,
Cushing syndrome,
Thyrotoxicosis,
Pheochromocytoma
Chronic pancreatitis,
Cancer
Drug induced hyperglycemia:
Atypical Antipsychotics
Beta-blockers - Inhibit insulin secretion.
Calcium Channel Blockers - Inhibits secretion of insulin by interfering with cytosolic calcium release.
Corticosteroids - Cause peripheral insulin resistance and gluconeogensis.
Fluoroquinolones - Inhibits insulin secretion by blocking ATP sensitive potassium channels.
Naicin - They cause increased insulin resistance due to increased free fatty acid mobilization.
Phenothiazines - Inhibit insulin secretion.
Protease Inhibitors - Inhibit the conversion of proinsulin to insulin.
Thiazide Diuretics - Inhibit insulin secretion due to hypokalemia. They also cause increased insulin resistance due to increased free fatty acid mobilization.

24. Normal Insulin Metabolism
Promotes glucose transport from the bloodstream across the cell membrane to the cytoplasm of the cell
Analogous to a “key” that unlocks the cell door to allow glucose in

25. Normal Insulin Metabolism
 Insulin after a meal:
Stimulates storage of glucose as glycogen
Inhibits gluconeogenesis
Enhances fat deposition in adipose tissue
Increases protein synthesis

26. Normal Insulin Metabolism
Fasting state
Counter-regulatory hormones (especially glucagon) stimulate glycogen  glucose
When glucose unavailable during fasting state
Lipolysis (fat breakdown)
Proteolysis (amino acid breakdown)

37. Criteria for the Diagnosis of Diabetes
A1C ≥6.5% OR
Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥126 mg/dl
Two-hour plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dl during an OGTT
A random plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dl
Table 2, current diagnostic criteria for the diagnosis of diabetes, is divided into five slides
On this slide, all four criteria are included:
A1C ≥6.5%
Fasting plasma glucose (FPG) ≥126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol/l)
Two-hour plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/l) during an OGTT
A random plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/l), in patients with classic symptoms of hyperglycemia or hyperglycemic crisis
The subsequent slides examine each of the four criteria in greater detail

38. Prediabetes: IFG, IGT, Increased A1C
Categories of increased risk for diabetes (Prediabetes)*
FPG mg/dl ( mmol/l): IFG or
2-h plasma glucose in the 75-g OGTT mg/dl ( mmol/l): IGT
A1C %
In 1997 and 203, The Expert Committee on the Diagnosis and Classification of Diabetes Mellitus1,2 recognized an intermediate group of individuals whose glucose levels, although not meeting criteria for diabetes, are nevertheless too high to be considered normal
This group was defined as having impaired fasting glucose (IFG) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT)
IFG: fasting plasma glucose (FPG) of mg/dl ( mmol/l)
IGT: two-hour plasma glucose (2-h PG) on the 75-g oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) of mg/dl ( mmol/l)
It should be noted that the World Health Organization (WHO) and a number of other diabetes organizations define the cutoff for IFG at 110 mg/dl (6.1 mmol)
Individuals with IFG and/or IGT have been referred to as having prediabetes, indicating a relatively high risk for future development of diabetes
IFG and IGT should not be viewed as clinical entities in their own right but rather risk factors for diabetes as well as cardiovascular disease (CVD)
IFG and IGT are associated with obesity (especially abdominal or visceral obesity), dyslipidemia with high triglycerides and/or low HDL cholesterol, and hypertension
Individuals with an A1C of % should be informed of their increased risk for diabetes as well as CVD and counseled about effective strategies to lower their risks (see Prevention/Delay of Type 2 Diabetes)
*For all three tests, risk is continuous, extending below the lower limit of a range and becoming disproportionately greater at higher ends of the range.

41. Is pre-diabetes dangerous?
Yes. Around % of pre-diabetics eventually progress to develop DM at the end of 5 yrs. Hence it is recommended to act at this stage itself in order to prevent DM. Pre-diabetes may also be associated with ongoing vascular damage and hence increased risk of micro/macro-vascular complications of DM even before the setting in of high blood sugars.

42. Monitoring of Blood Sugar
Check when and how often to monitor - suggested times include
Fasting, before lunch and dinner
2 hrs after breakfast, lunch and dinner
3 AM
Test more often
When not well
Suspect hypoglycemia
During pregnancy
When changing treatment or not in control

43. Plasma insulin or C-peptide measurement
These estimations are not required in routine clinical practice
However they are useful in research in clinical situations such as recurrent hypoglycemia and when clinical classification is difficult
Can be done only in specialized laboratories

44. Burden of Diabetes
The development of diabetes is projected to reach pandemic proportions over the next10-20 years.
International Diabetes Federation (IDF) data indicate that by the year 2025, the number of people affected will reach 333 million –90% of these people will have Type 2 diabetes.
In most Western societies, the overall prevalence has reached 4-6%, and is as high as 10-12% among year-old people.
The annual health costs caused by diabetes and its complications account for around 6-12% of all health-care expenditure.
