Diabetes Mellitus By Prof. Dr. Nabil Lymon Professor of Internal Medicine Mansoura University Faculty of Medicine
DEFINITION
It is a clinical syndrome Characterized by :
Chronic persistent hyperglycemia.
Disturbed metabolism of Ptn , Fat, CHO & Electrolyte.
Microangiopathy esp. in Retina, Glomeruli, & vase nervosa.
It is caused by: ( absolute or relative lack of insulin )

CLASSIFICATION OF DM 1.
Type I diabetes A. Immune mediated B. Idiopathic
2. 3. 4.
Type 2 diabetes Gestational DM Other specific types: A. B. C.
Genetic defects of B-cell function Genetic defects in insulin action Exocrine pancreatic causes 1. 2. 3.
Congenital cystic fibrosis Chronic pancreatitis, Hemochromatosis Fibrocalculus pancreatopathy (tropical DM tropical malnutrition)

A.
B.
Endocrinal causes 1. Acromegaly, Pheochromocytoma 2. Cushing syndrome, Conn's syndrome 3. Somatostatinoma Glucagonoma, 4. Thyrotoxicosis Infections: congenital rubella cytomegallovirus Drugs : a- interferon, Corticosteroids , CCP Other genetic syndromes: Down's syndrome - Klinefelter syndrome Uncommon forms of immune mediated diabetes: anti-insulin receptor Ab
N.B: ** (MODY type): Mature Onset Diabetes in the Young: - Represent 15 % of cases, autosomal dominant, in young obese people -Treated by oral antidiabetics, less liable for microangiopathy ** ( LADA ): (Late onset Autoimmune Diabetes of Adult)
Diagnosis of DM Complication

CLINICAL PICTURE
Asvmptomatic: in 1/3 of cases Classic symptoms: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
Polyuria : with nocturia Polydypsia Polyphagia with weight loss Pruritis especially of vulva Pains & paresthesia Premature loosening of teeth Blurred vision : due to osmotic swelling of lens
Symptoms of complications: acute, chronic.
DD
Complication of DM Acute complications 2. Diabetic comas. 3. Infections. 4. Complication related to systems. ARF. AMI. Acute neuropathy

Chronic Complication Neurological compl. Ocular Complication. CVS complication . Pul. complication GIT complication. Renal complication Genital complication. Skin complication. Diabetic Foot. Rheumatological comp Infection Psychiatric complication comp. of therapy
Differential Diagnosis A) D.D. of reducing substance in urine 1. Glucosuria 1. Renal glucosuria due to Low renal threshold: Pregnancy De-Toni Fanconi syndrome 2. Alimetary glycosuria: Gastrectomy, liver cirrhosis 3. Cerebral glucosuria : Sub arachinoid hge , Meningitis 2. Other Sugar in urine : Fructosuria , galactosuria, pentosuria 3. Other Reducing substances in urine : Vit.C , salicylates
B). D.D. of symptomatology 1.
loss of weight inspite of good appetite: - Malabsorption syndrome - Parasitic infestation - Thyrotoxicosis
Other causes of Polyuria
C). 1ry from 2rv DM : (Cushing disease) D). Type 1 DM from Type 2 DM:

Type I DM = (IDDM)
Type 2= (NIDDM)
Incidence
5-15%
85%
Subtypes
Type I A : 80 % immune Type I B : 20 % idiopathic
Type 2-obese: 80 Type 2-non obese : 20

Investigation Treatment
Insulin
Low or absent
Glucagon
High and suppressed by insulin
Auto Ab
ICA, ICSA, Anti-GAD
C-peptide
deficient Insulin is a must
- Abnormal - ↑↑ insulin resistance High and resistant to insulin Absent increased -Diet - OHD ± insulin
Investigations A- To diagnose DM Plasma glucose
Normal (mg/dl) Prediabetes (IGT)
diabetes
Random (casual)
< 200mg
--
> 200+ polys
Fasting
70 - 100
100-125 (IFG)
> 126
2 hr. PP
<140
140 -199 (IGT)
> 200
IFG: "Impaired fasting glucose" 100 - 125 mg IGT: "Impaired glucose tolerance"- 2h. P.P. 140 -199 mg
IGT Personnel: (rule of third)
1/3 remain IGT 1/3 develop frank DM, 1/3 return to normal plasma glucose
B- To diagnose type of DM 1.
Plasma insulin level
2. 3.
C -peptide level : assess endogenous insulin secretion Auto antibodies:
4.
it is low in type 1 DM & show early rise in type 2 DM
Anti insulin receptorAb in immune mediated type 1 DM. Anti GAD (glutamic acid decarboxylase) ICA
For the cause
If 2 dry DM is suspected e.g. Cushing syndrome.
C- To monitor diabetic patients
Retinopathy : Fundus Exam. Nephropathy : urine analysis for microalbuminuria ECG Lipid profile
www.MansFans.co
D- To monitor diabetic patients BLOOD: 1.
Glvcosvlated proteins a- Hb A1c: Target in diabetics: < 7% Formed due to non-enzymatic glycosylation of amino acid valine & lysine in β chain of HbA Its % gives an estimate of diabetic control for the preceding 3 months. The Normal level 4 - 6 % of total Hb
b- Other glycosylated proteins: fructosamine (glycosylated albumin) Factors interfering with measurement of A1c. a- False high values: uremia, high concentrations of fetal hemoglobin (HbF), high aspirin doses (usually>10 g/day), or high concentrations of ethanol. b- False low values: hemogloinopathies, hemorrhage and hemolytic disorders.
