Q

Screening method for gdm patients

A

The Two Step approach consists of a nonfasting oral 50-g glucose load, with a glucose blood measurement 1 hour later(+ve if more than 140)
If the 50-g glucose test is positive, it should be followed by a 100-g, 3-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT)

Diagnostic criteria: - fasting ≥ 95 mg/dl - 1, hour ≥ 180 mg/dl - 2, hours ≥ 155 mg/dl - 3, hours ≥ 140 mg/dl
- ≥ 2 abnormal values to diagnose GDM.

Q

How do the intermediate and long acting insulin formulations provide their long lasting effects

A

Intermediate acting mph insulin is covered by PROTAMINE molecules which take a longer time to breakdown
Glargin works by making microcrystalline deposits in the subcutaneous fat so acts as a depot
detemir works by having a fatty acid chain that associates with Albumin prolonging the duration of action
degludec deck works by being a di hexamer That associates into multi di hexamers that take a long time to release insulin into the circulation

Q

Adjustment for Basal insulin when treating type one diabetes.

A

Adjustment of basal bolus insulin dose: - 1/2 TDD for bolus insulin dose (÷3 for each meal). - Fix fasting first (controlling fasting blood glucose will control postprandial blood glucose).
- Basal insulin is adjusted to achieve FBG < 130 mg/dl.  130 - 150  increase 2 units.  150 - 170  increase 4 units.  170 - 200  increase 6 units.  > 200  increase 8 units.
Then adjust post prandial blood glucose (to reach ≤ 180) by adjusting bolus insulin increase corresponding dose by 2-4 units every 3-4 days (the doctor said
in the audio that it is 3-7 days, not before 3, better at 5 and best at 7 days).

Q

what is the The Somogyi phenomenon

A

The Somogyi phenomenon: is morning hyperglycemia due to hypoglycemia that happened at night (due to night pp insulin) by the means of stress hormones that rise during the hypoglycemia (cortisol catecholamine glucagon) therefore the
solution is to decrease night dose of insulin or add a snack before bed.
The Dawn phenomenon: is morning hyperglycemia not due to hypoglycemia at night the cause is unclear but the solution is to increase the dose
of night insulin.

30
pathogenesis of hhs
Hyperglycemic Hyperosmolar State (HHS) - It occurs in type 2 diabetics usually elderly patients: due to relative insulin deficiency (Insulin resistance). - HHS is characterized by: o Severe hyperglycemia. o Hyperosmolality. o Severe dehydration. o Absence of significant ketosis. - Which is adequate to prevent lipolysis and subsequent Ketogenesis. (minimal or no Ketoacid). (MCQ) - But inadequate to prevent gluconeogenesis or glycogenolysis. (Severe hyperglycemia therefore severe polyuria → severe dehydration & high osmolarity).
31
Between Dka and edges, which has more cns manifestations.
Because of the severe dehydration, the person will present in.
32
Equation 4 serum osmolarity.
 2 {Serum Na+ (mEq/l)} + glucose (mg/dl) = mOsm/kg. 18
33

anti platelet tx of diab
Use aspirin therapy 75-162 mg/dl as a primary prevention in diabetic patients (type 1&2) at increased cardiovascular risk.(C) - Use aspirin therapy 75-162 mg/dl as a secondary prevention in diabetic patients (type 1&2) with cardiovascular disease.(A) - Aspirin allergy, bleeding tendency, anticoagulant therapy, recent Gl bleeding, under the age of 30 and clinically active hepatic disease are contraindications for aspirin therapy. Clopidogrel (75mg/day) should be used. - May have rapid platelet turnover with diabetic vascular disease; thus, the steady plasma aspirin concentration from the enteric coated preparation theoretically allows for constant suppression of thromboxane synthesis. - May consider clopidogrel 75mg (CAPRIE study) in someone with ASA allergy; was shown to be slightly more effective than ASA in reducing combined risk of stroke, MI, or vascular death in diabetic and nondiabetic subjects.
42
What factors play a role in micro and macro somplications
for macrovascular risk factors . would include not only hyperglycemia, but smoking hypertension, dyslipidemia, obesity, sedentary lifestyle. for microvascular complications , hyperglycemia is the main risk factor.

43
Stages of DIabetic retinopathy
1. Mild non proliferative diabetic retinopathy (Mild NPDR): - These changes begin 3 to 5 years after diagnosis in type 1 diabetics. - First signs are microaneurysms with subsequent retinal hemorrhages and hard exudates. - Infarctions of nerve fiber layer, known as soft exudates. - Visual acuity is generally unaffected. 2. Moderate NPDR: - Characterized by microvascular abnormalities such as: 1. Venous beading, venous caliber changes. 2. Increased capillary dilatation and permeability. 3. Severe or very severe NPDR: - Manifested by: * Progressive retinal ischemia. * Extensive hemorrhages, exudates and micro aneurysms. - At 5 years; mild, moderate, and severe NPDR are associated with 15%, 30% and 60% risk of progression to PDR. 4. Proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR): Involves: - Neovascularization in the retina "early PDR". - Neovascularization in the vitreous body "High risk PDR" → a. Retinal detachment. b. Retinal hemorrhages. c. Blindness. - Occasionally, new vessels can invade the iris and the anterior chamber, leading to sight threatening closed-angle glaucoma.

59
How does pentamedine induce hypoglycemia?
Pentamidine stimulates T lymphocytes, which stimulate B cells, to secrete insulin.
60
List the causes of late hypoglycemia
Ediopathic. alcohol related depletes glycogen. Counter regulatory hormone deficiency. IDiopathic immune mediated hypoglycemia. which is classified into three things. First one being insulin receptor agonists. Pentamedine induced. anti insulin antibodies, which form a loose bond with insulin and cause an increase amount of insulin in the circulation which cause hypoglycemia.
61
Explain dumping syndrome
Food reaches the intestine. And before being absorbed, high levels of insulin will be present in the circulation due to the stimulation in the elementary canal. So hypoglycemia will happen.
62
How to diagnose facticious hyperinsulinemia?
High levels of insulin and normal or low levels of seabeptide.

Trabecular + cortical vert+femur
100
What is a biphasic pattern of bone loss
It is when women experience type 1 and type 2 osteoporosis, postmenopausaly.
101
causes of secondary osteoporosis
Secondary osteoporosis may result from many causes including glucocorticoid excess, male hypogonadism, hyperparathyroidism, hyperthyroidism, malignancy, immobilization, hepatic insufficiency, gastrectomy, rheumatoid arthritis, acromegaly, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic renal failure, and heparin therapy
102
Effect of cortisol on calcium metabolism
Endogenous or exogenous glucocorticoid excess is a leading cause of premature osteoporosis. Corticosteroids inhibit osteoblastic function, stimulate bone resorption, increase parathyroid hormone secretion, inhibit intestinal calcium absorption, and cause decreased end-organ response to vitamin D
103
What is the chief predictor of osteoporosis
AGE
104
first presentation of osteoporosis
Fracture as its asymptomatic until that occurs
105
What metabolic markers do we use to monitor patients in osteoporosis
OSTEOCALCIN PYRIDINIUM DEOXYPYRIDNIUM HYDROXYPROLINE
106
Why are x rays not reliable in detecting osteoporosis?
Because 30% of the bone needs to be lost in order to be diagnosed and seen as radiolucency
107
Most common cause of incidental finding of osteoporosis on postmenopausal women.
chest x-ray.
108
disadvantages of ct scan for measuring bone densities.
Results are less reproducible more. expensive than other techniques cannot be used for women in childbearing period . High radiation exposure.
109
TEch of choice for bone density measurment
DEXA
110
best bone density measurment tool for young and middle age people
DPA
111
DPA DISADVANTAGES
More expensive less widely available. longer scanning time. falsely elevated results happen in closely situated calcified vessels, compression fractures, degenerative bone diseases.
112
Uses of DPA AND SPA (bones they can scan )
SPA can measure RADIUS ULNA AND HEEL BONES Dpa can measure femur and vertebral bones.
113
types of calcium supplements
Calcium carbonate, which is 40% calcium by weight, but causes more gi symptoms. And calcium citrate, which is 22% calcium by weight, but causes less gi symptoms and is absorbed in patients with achlorohydria
114
daily recommended calcium and VD in ptns of osteo
1500 mg 800IU
115
Effect of exercise (not severe) in elderly women with osteoporosis.
Not significant as not. much bone changes will happen to them, but any reduction in fracture risk is probably. associated with increased muscular strength.
116
How does smoking negate the protective effect of postmenopausal estrogen therapy in osteoporosis ?
Smoking causes increase. metabolism of.estrogen(Estrogen causes an increased production. of vitamin D in the body)
