It should be performed to diagnose gestational diabetes

Impaired glucose fasting

It is characterized by fasting blood glucose concentration less than those required for the diagnosis of diabetes

Impaired fasting glucose

The OGTT is between normal and diabetic values (2nd hour OGTT = 140-199mg/dL

True

True or False:



Normally, serum glucose levels rise and them fall within about a 2-hour period.

True

True or False:



If the glucose levels remain elevated, however, the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus may again be made.

True

True or False:



If glucose is detected in the urine at any point, evidence for this condition is also obtained, although absence of urinary glucose does not in any way rule out DM.

True

True or False:



If glucose is detected in the urine at any point, evidence for this condition is also obtained, although absence of urinary glucose does not in any way rule out DM.

Glycosylated Hemoglobin

Aso known as glycated hemoglobin.

HbA1c

Glycosylated Hemoglobin

It is the largest subfraction of normal hemoglobin A in both diabetic and nondiabtletic individuals.

Glycosylated hemoglobin

It is the hemoglobin A that is irreversibly glycosylated at one or both N-terminal valines of the Beta chains of the tetramic hemoglobin molecule, including hemoglobin that may also (but not solely) be fly cost later on lysine residues.

Glycosylated hemoglobin

It represents a "weighted" average of glucose levels, with youngest erythrocytes contributing to a greater extent than older ones.

Glycosylated hemoglobin

It is a reliable method in the monitoring of long-term glucose control.

HbA1c

3-6 months

HbA1c levels should be performed every ??? in the individuals with diabetes to monitor glycemic control using certified method.

12-24 weeks

Glycosylated hemoglobin

Traceable to diabetes Control and Complications Trial reference (DCCT) method.

Diabetes Control and Complications Trial

DCCT

True

True or False:



Dietary status on the day of the test has no effect on HbA1c.

Electrophoresis, Immunoassay, HPLC, Affinity Chromatography

Measurement Methods for HbA1c

EIHAC

True

True or False:



It is recommend that HbA1c be measured twice a year for patients who are meeting treatment goals, and quarterly for non-compliant patients.

2-4 months or 2-6 months

HbA1c Diagnostic Significance:



It reflects the average glucose level over the previous ???

Even number.

Carbohydrates

Compounds that contain, hydrogen and oxygen

Cx(H2O)y

What is the general formula of carbohydrates?

• provide energy to the body


• part of the structural integrity of the cell membrane


• determines blood type


• essential component of nucleic acids

What are the functions of carbohydrates?

• glucose


• galactose


• fructose

Examples of Monosaccharides

GGF

• Maltose = 2 glucose


• Lactose = galactose + glucose


• Sucrose = fructose + glucose

Examples of Dissacharides

MLS

• starch


• cellulose


glycogen

Examples of Polysaccharides

SCG

Ptyalin

Salivary amylase

Mouth


• Salivary glands produce salivary amylase (ptyalin) which digest carbohydrates in the mouth



• Food goes to the esophagus



• Food goes to the stomach (no carbohydrate digestion)



• Food goes to the intestine (pancreatic amylase) is released from the pancreas and passes through the bile duct and into the intestines



• Long chain of carbohydrates are degraded into glucose by the action of pancreatic amylase



• Glucose is absorbed into the blood circulation (leading to hyperglycemia)



• Hyperglycemia triggers release of insulin by the Beta cells odlf the pancreas



• Insulin release leads to increased cellular uptake of glucose



• Glucose enters the cell



• Glucose in the blood decreases

Pathway of Carbohydrate Metabolism

10

• Glycolysis


• Gluconeogenesis


• Glycogenolysis


• Glycogenesis


Lipogenesis


• Lipolysis

Process involved in Carbohydrate Metabolism

GGGGLL

Glycolysis

Metabolism of glucose molecule to pyruvate or lactate

Glycolysis

Decrease blood glucose since glucose is consumed to produce lactate or pyruvate

Gluconeogenesis

Formation of glucose-6-phosphate from non-carbohydrate sources

Gluconeogenesis

Increase blood glucose since new glucoses are formed from other sources

Glycogenolysis

Breakdown of glycogen to glucose for use as energy

Glycogenolysis

Increases glucose since glycogen is degraded into glucose molecules

Glycogenesis

Conversion of glucose to glycogen for storage

Glycogenesis

Decreases glucose since excess glucoses in the body is stored in the liver and skeletal muscles as glycogen

Lipogenesis

Conversion of carbohydrates to fatty acids

Lipogenesis

Decreases glucose since carbohydrates are converted into fatty acids and stored as fats

Lipolysis

Decomposition of fats

Lipolysis

Increases glucose because fats are converted into consumable glucose

Pancreas and Liver

Organs involved in carbohydrate regulation

PL

Pancreas

Has exocrine and endocrine function

Pancreas as Endocrine gland

Refers to the production of hormones

Pancreas as Exocrine gland

Leads to production of enzyme

Glucagon

Hormone that secreted by the alpha cells of the pancreas and leads to the increase in the blood glucose levels

Glucagon

Hyperglycemic agent

Insulin

Hormone secreted by the Beta cells of the pancreas and leads to the decrease in blood glucose levels

Insulin

Synthesized as proinsulin, in which the C-peptide in cleaved in order to convert it to the active insulin.

Somatostatin

Hormone secreted by the delta cells of the pancreas and causes inhibition of glucagon and insulin

Pancreatic amylase

Enzyme that degrades carbohydrates

Lipase

Enzyme that cleaves triglycerides

Liver

Functions in the production and regulation of carbohydrates, lipids and protein

Liver

Reposnsible for the formation of glycogen

Diabetic ketoacidosis

pH imbalance results from dehydration, electrolyte imbalance and acidosis

Diabetic ketoacidosis

Serious complication of diabetes that occurs when your body produces high levels of blood acid called ketones.

Diabetic ketoacidosis

It develops when your body is unable to produce enough insulin

DM - increase specific gravity of urine


DI - decrease specific gravity of urine

Differentiate DM and DI based on urine specific gravity

Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone)

DI lacks what hormone????

Diabetes insipidus

A rare form of diabetes caused by a deficiency of the pituitary hormone vasopressin, which regulated the kidney function.

Carbohydrates - without nitrogen (CHO)


Protein - with nitrogen (CHON)

Differentiate carbohydrates from proteins

GTT

It is a multiple blood sugar test
