Diabetes Mellitus

What is

Diabetes mellitus is a chronic condition that is characterized by raised blood glucose levels (Hyperglycemia) from defects in insulin production, insulin action, or both.

The term diabetes mellitus describes a metabolic disorder of multiple aetiology characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat and protein metabolism resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both.

The effects of diabetes mellitus include long–term damage, dysfunction and failure of various organs.

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 60-70-year-old people.

The annual health costs caused by diabetes and its complications account for around 6-12% of all health-care expenditure.

Blood sugar and health

Sugar (glucose) is an important source of energy

What is eaten is absorbed into the blood

Insulin is producedby the pancreas whenblood sugar is high

Insulin keeps bloodsugar level withinthe normal range for health

Islet of Langerhans

Insulinb-cells

Pancreas contains insulin-making cells in “islets”

Carbohydrate Digestion

Diabetes in a ‘nutshell’

Insufficient insulin to meet the body’s needs

Either a complete lack (type 1) or relative lack

(type 2) of insulin

Results in raised blood glucose levels

Untreated diabetes results in short-term

symptoms and serious long-term complications

Treatment aims to keep blood glucose levels as

close to the normal range as safely possible

Symptoms of Diabetes

People with diabetes often have typical complaints (symptoms):

Thirst and frequent drinking

More frequent urination, particularly at night

Unexplained weight loss

Fatigue

Blurred vision

Frequent infections : skin, genital

Risk Factors

Family history of Diabetes Over weight Unhealthy diet Physical inactivity Gestational Diabetes Genetically (type 1 diabetes,

pre-diabetes, gestational) Can develop due to poor diet &

inadequate exercise (pre-diabetes, type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes)

Complications

Cardiovascular disease: (Heart attack, stroke)

Kidney disease (diabetic nephropathy)

Nerve disease (diabetic neuropathy)

Eye disease (diabetic retinopathy)

Pregnancy complications

Types of diabetes

There are 4 major types of diabetes:1. Type 1 Diabetes - Childhood

2. Type 2 Diabetes - Adulthood

3. Gestational Diabetes - Pregnancy

4. Others- Pre-diabetic -

Types of Diabetes…..

1) Type 1 Diabetesusually diagnosed in childhoodaffected by hereditarysometimes there are no symptomsImperative to inject insulin daily because the body makes little or no insulinfrequently called the ‘insulin-needed’ groupPatients with type 1 diabetes need insulin daily to survive

Types of Diabetes…..

2)Type 2 Diabetes

most common usually occurs in adulthood

but diagnosis is increasing in the younger generation

affects many children Body is incapable of

responding to insulin Rates rising due to increased

obesity and failure to exercise and eat healthy

Types of Diabetes…..

3) Gestational Diabetes

blood sugar levels are high during pregnancy in women

Women who give birth to children over 9 lbs.

high risk of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease

Types of Diabetes…..

4) Pre-diabetes Starts with unhealthy eating

habits & inadequate exercise At least 79 million people are

diagnosed with pre-diabetes each year

above average blood glucose levels, not high enough to be classified under type 1 or type 2 diabetes

long-term damage to body, including heart and circulatory system

Diabetes is a huge and growing problem, and the costs to society are high and escalating

Globally 382 million people have diabetes By 2035, this number will rise to 592 million

In Bangladesh 8.4 million people had diabetes in 2013

Differences between type-1 and type-2 Diabetes Mellitus

Type 1 Young age Normal BMI, not obese No immediate family

history Short duration of

symptoms (weeks) Can present with

diabetic coma (diabetic ketoacidosis)

Insulin required

Type 2 Middle aged, elderly Usually

overweight/obese Family history usual Symptoms may be

present for months/years

Do not present with diabetic coma

Insulin not necessarily required

Previous diabetes in pregnancy

These differences are not absolute

Management of Diabetes

Follow a Healthy Meal Plan

Take your Medication

Regular Exercise

Test blood sugarRegularly

Management of DMManagement of DM

The major components of the treatment of diabetes are:

PreventionPrevention starts with a

better lifestyle eating healthier being active taking medicine as directed taking care of your body check feet to make sure there is no

nerve damage or interruption of blood flow

take care of teeth control blood pressure and high no smoking! check in with your doctor at least

once a month have your blood sugar checked along

with weight, blood pressure, and feelings

Check blood sugar levels daily by using home monitoring device

At present, type 1 diabetes cannot be prevented. The environmental triggers that are thought to generate the process that results in the destruction of the body’s insulin-producing cells are still under investigation.

There is a lot of evidence that lifestyle changes (achieving a healthy body weight and moderate physical activity) can help prevent the development of type 2 diabetes.

Prevention of Diabetes

Management of Diabetes Mellitus

Nutrition Blood glucoseMedications Physical activity/exerciseBehavior modification

Medical Nutrition Therapy

Primary Goal – improve metabolic control

Blood glucose Lipid (cholesterol) levels

Medical Nutrition Therapy

Maintain short and long term body weight

Reach and maintain normal growth and development

Prevent or treat complications Improve and maintain nutritional

status Provide optimal nutrition for

pregnancy

Nutritional Management for Type I Diabetes

Consistency and timing of meals

Timing of insulinMonitor blood glucose regularly

Nutritional Management for Type II Diabetes

Weight loss Smaller meals and snacks Physical activity Monitor blood glucose and

medications

Person living with Diabetes

Action of Insulin on the Cell Metabolism

Action of Insulin on Carbohydrate, Protein and Fat Metabolism

Carbohydrate Facilitates the transport of glucose

into muscle and adipose cells Facilitates the conversion of glucose

to glycogen for storage in the liver and muscle.

Decreases the breakdown and release of glucose from glycogen by the liver

Action of Insulin on Carbohydrate, Protein and Fat Metabolism

Protein Stimulates protein synthesis Inhibits protein breakdown; diminishes

gluconeogenesis.

Action of Insulin on Carbohydrate, Protein and Fat Metabolism

Fat Stimulates lipogenesis- the

transport of triglycerides to adipose tissue

Inhibits lipolysis – prevents excessive production of ketones or ketoacidosis

Type I Diabetes

Low or absent endogenous insulin Dependent on exogenous insulin for

life Onset generally < 30 years 5-10% of cases of diabetes Onset sudden

Symptoms: 3 P’s: polyuria, polydypsia, polyphagia

Type I Diabetes Cell

Type II Diabetes

Insulin levels may be normal, elevated or depressed Characterized by insulin resistance, diminished tissue sensitivity to insulin, and impaired beta cell function (delayed or

inadequate insulin release) Often occurs >40 years

Type II Diabetes

Type II Diabetes

Risk factors: family history, sedentary lifestyle, obesity and aging

Controlled by weight loss, oral hypoglycemic agents and or insulin
