ESGUERRA, NAVARRO, RAMOS, REYES | EBPT 2 1 DIABETES MELLITUS According to WHO, the classification of diabetes started in 1965, During this time, we classify diabetes based on the age range of the patient wherein he/she has started to experience the symptoms of diabetes. DEFINITION In 1985, there has been a change in the classification, this time they based it A group of metabolic disease characterized by on the patient’s dependency in insulin. inappropriate hyperglycemia resulting from defect in insulin 1999 is the latest classification, the one we use today secretion, insulin action or both. o These GAD antibodies cause an immune response. Glutamic acid is converted into GABA (responsible for insulin secretion) through Most common endocrine disorder glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD). With the GAD antibodies, there is o It involves the malfunction of the pancreas which is responsible for inhibition of the conversion of glutamic acid into GABA, thus inhibiting producing insulin (type 2) or the body’s cells do not respond properly insulin secretion. to insulin Chronic condition - It could develop during the early TYPE 1 DM childhood, particularly if the patient has type 1 diabetes. Patients with type 1 DM have an absolute insulin For patients with type 2, it starts in patients older than 40 deficiency. years old. o One of the major causes of pancreatic damage or destruction of beta o The two most common classifications of DM are: islet cells.

Their immune system recognizes the beta islet cells as something foreign; thus it starts to destroy the beta islet cells. with DM are at high risk for CV events, heart failure, and o They need insulin supplementation because their body is no longer able atherosclerotic disease. to produce insulin. o Chronic hyperglycemia can cause vascular and nerve damage, resulting in microvascular, macrovascular, and neuropathic complications Type 1 DM (5%–10% of cases) usually presents in children and adolescents but can occur at any age. EPIDEMIOLOGY Associated with a faster onset of symptoms, leading to dependency on extrinsic insulin for survival Extreme hyperglycemia causes DKA (diabetic ketoacidosis) o DKA is severe condition that occurs when insulin levels are too low, causing the body to break down fat for energy. This leads to the production of ketones, which can result in metabolic acidosis. Symptoms include nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, rapid breathing, and confusion. DKA can be life-threatening if not treated promptly. DM is a worldwide problem, significantly impacting people and healthcare systems in low-, middle-, and high-income countries. o Diabetes is one of the largest global health emergencies of the 21st century. Each year, more and more people are living with the condition, which leads to significant morbidity and mortality. A study in 2017 found out that there are 425 million people worldwide who have diabetes. They expect that in 2045 there would be an increase of 48% of the world’s population to develop diabetes. Approximately 50–60% of patients with type 1 will present before 20 years of age. Figures are highest in Caucasians, especially Scandinavians, In a healthy individual, the pancreas produces insulin, a hormone that helps cells take in glucose from the bloodstream. The insulin binds to insulin whereas the disorder is rare in Japan and the Pacific area receptors on the cell surface, which allows glucose to enter the cell to be used Type 2 diabetes is more common in people of African, for energy. This process helps keep blood glucose levels stable. African-Caribbean and South Asian family origin. In Type 1 diabetes, the pancreas fails to produce insulin (shown with a red "X"). Without insulin, glucose cannot enter the cells. As a result, glucose builds CLASSIFICATION OF DIABETES up in the bloodstream, leading to high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). In type 2 diabetes, the pancreas is able to produce insulin but the cells fail to AGE RANGE DEPENDENCY ON LATEST CLASSIFICATION respond to insulin properly.

Diabetes These patients often have a poor response to oral agents Antiglutamic acid decarboxylase and require insulin therapy much sooner than most patients (GAD) antibodies with type 2 DM. ESGUERRA, NAVARRO, RAMOS, REYES | EBPT 2 2 o Although some sources list LADA under Type 1, it is still a subject for CLASSIFICATIONS DISORDER an ongoing debate because of its autoimmune nature similar to Type 1 Monogenic Maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) and LADA tends to be less acute and may not require insulin at the time defects caused by a mutation in GCK, HNF1A, HNF1B, of diagnosis. This eventual need for insulin therapy links it to T1D rather or HNF4A gene than type 2 where insulin resistance is the primary cause.

Medication - Atypical antipsychotics (eg, risperidone, induced diabetes olanzapine) Type 2 DM accounts for 90% to 95% of all cases of DM. β-blockers (e, propranolol, atenolol) When compared to people of European ancestry, Native β-adrenergic agonists (eg, albuterol) Americans, Latino/Hispanic Americans, African Americans, Calcineurin inhibitors (eg, cyclosporine, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders are more likely to tacrolimus) develop type 2 DM.

It often occurs in older Niacin/nicotinic acid Pentamidine adults with type 2 diabetes and can be precipitated by infection, dehydration, or illness. Symptoms include severe dehydration, Protease inhibitors (eg, ritonavir, saquinavir) confusion, and potentially coma. HHS can also be life-threatening and Thiazide diuretics (eg, chlorthalidone, requires urgent medical treatment. hydrochlorothiazide) Maturity onset diabetes of the young (MODY) - It’s more of a type 2 diabetes GESTATIONAL DIABETES but is usually associated with genetics, i.e., if a family member has diabetes type 2 diabetes and there is a change in the genes. At a very young age, Women who develop diabetes during pregnancy are usually during adolescence, patients already start to develop and have classified as having gestational diabetes (GDM). symptoms of diabetes. o Excess weight before pregnancy often plays a role. Usually, various hormones work to keep blood sugar levels in check. But during PATHOPHYSIOLOGY pregnancy, hormone levels change, making it harder for the body to process blood sugar efficiently. This makes blood sugar rise Not classified as GDM if patient have diabetes prior to being pregnant. o If DM is diagnosed prior to pregnancy, this is not GDM, but rather pregnancy with pre-existing DM. Hormone changes during pregnancy result in increased insulin resistance, and GDM may ensue if the mother cannot increase insulin secretion to adequately compensate to maintain normoglycemia. The pancreas is divided into an exocrine portion and an endocrine portion (islets of Hyperglycemia in pregnancy is associated with adverse Langerhans).
