    Study Notes

    Diabetes: Key Points

    • Chronic complications of diabetes include stroke, heart disease, eye disease, kidney disease, and nerve damage.
    • The definition of diabetes involves symptoms and specific glucose levels.
    • Diabetes can be diagnosed through symptoms or elevated glucose levels.
    • There are different types of diabetes, including Type 1, Type 2, genetic, pancreatic, endocrine, drug-induced, syndromic, and gestational diabetes.
    • Acute complications of diabetes include diabetic ketoacidosis, which can lead to various health issues.
    • Long-term complications of diabetes include neovascularization, retinopathy, and neuropathy.
    • Diabetic retinopathy presents with clinical stages and pathological findings.
    • Neuropathy associated with diabetes can lead to various complications such as ulcers and autonomic issues.
    • Nephropathy, a common complication of diabetes, involves the renal microcirculation and different clinical stages.
    • Treatment options for Type 1 diabetes include Teplizumab and structured education programs.
    • Insulin regimens for Type 1 diabetes vary based on social deprivation and ethnicity.
    • Treatment options for Type 2 diabetes include metformin, sulfonylurea, pioglitazone, DDP4 inhibitors, SGLT2 inhibitors, and GLP1 receptor agonists.

    Diabetes Complications and Treatments

    • High glucose levels in diabetes lead to dehydration, resulting in the loss of 10-15 liters of total body fluid, making individuals very sick.
    • Older, frail individuals with diabetes may avoid drinking water due to the inconvenience of frequent bathroom trips, leading to dehydration and illness.
    • Low glucose (hypoglycemia) can occur due to insulin treatment, causing symptoms such as irritability, shakiness, and loss of consciousness if severe.
    • Long-term complications of diabetes include eye problems, such as retinal abnormalities that can be detected through annual digital eye photography.
    • Laser treatment can be used to burn the retina to reduce its demand for blood and oxygen in diabetic eye complications.
    • Injections can also be administered to prevent the formation of abnormal blood vessels in the eye, which are fragile and prone to bleeding, leading to vision loss.
    • National screening programs and effective treatments have reduced diabetes-related blindness, demonstrating the impact of proactive measures.
    • High glucose thickens the basement membrane of blood vessels, leading to the formation of fragile new vessels in the retina that can bleed and affect vision.
    • The leakage of proteins and other substances from these fragile vessels into the retina can impair vision without the individual being aware of it.
    • Inhibiting vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) can prevent the formation of new vessels in the eye, and regular monitoring and staging are essential for timely treatment.
    • Peripheral neuropathy, a diabetes complication, affects the longest nerves in the extremities, making them more fragile and susceptible to damage.
    • Similar to eye complications, thickening of cells due to high glucose levels can affect nerves, leading to peripheral neuropathy symptoms.
