INTRODUCTION Diabetes mellitus is not a single disease but a heterogenous gr. of diseases characterised by a state of chronic hyperglycemia resulting from diversity of etiologies,environmental & genetic factor acting jointly . The disease is characterised by metabolic abnormalities &long term complication involving the - 1.Eyes 2.Kidneys 3.Nerves 4.Blood vessels
AETIOLOGY Defective production or action of insulin;a hormone that control glucose,fat and a mino acid metabolism.
CLASSIFICATION Diabetes mellitus- Type1 or insulin dependent diabetes mellitus Type2 or non insulin dependent diabetes mellitus Malnutrition related diabetes mellitus Maturity onset diabetes of the young Other types(secondary to pancreatic,hormonal,drug induced, genetic) Impaired glucose tolerance Gestational diabetes mellitus
MAGNITUDE OF PROBLEM WORLDWIDE Diabetes is an iceberg disease currently the number of cases of Diabetes worldwide is around 387 million, of which more than 90% are Type 2 Diabetics
WORLDWIDE PREVALENCE OF DIABETES Global prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes in adults aged 25+ is 10%
Worldwide Prevalence by Region
MAGNITUDE OF DIABETES IN SOUTH EAST ASIA
MAGNITUDE OF PROBLEM IN INDIA India is the diabetes capital of the world
EPIDEMIOLOGICAL DETERMINANTS AGENT Main cause of diabetes mellitus is insulin deficiency Absolute-type1 Partial-type2 This is due to various factors- Pancreatic disorders Defects in insulin formation Destruction of beta cells Decreased insulin sensitivity Genetic defects A utoimmunity
2.HOST FACTORS Age Sex Genetic factors Genetic markers~ a.Type1:HLA-DR3,HLA-DR4 b.Type2:not HLA associated Immune mechanisms Obesity Maternal diabetes
3.ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS Sedentary lifestyle Diet Dietary fiber Malnutrition Alcohol Viral infections Chemical agents Stress Others- a.Occupation b.Economic status c.education
SCREENING AND PREVENTION OF DIABETES URINE EXAMINATION Urine test for glucose is done 2 hours after a meal It has high specificity and low sensitivity therefore false negatives are common while false positives are rare It is used along with OGTT for screening BLOOD SUGAR TESTING Mass screening programmes use glucose measurements of fasting,post prandial or random blood sample For epidemiological purposes the 2 hr value after 75g oral glucose may be used alone or with fasting value
WHO recommendations for the diagnostic criteria for Diabetes and intermediate hyperglycaemia DIABETES Fasting plasma glucose 2 hr plasma glucose >=126mg/dl >200mg/dl IMPAIRED GLUCOSE TOLERANCE Fasting plasma glucose 2 hr plasma glucose <126mg/dl >=140mg/dl & <200mg/dl IMPAIRED FASTING GLUCOSE Fasting plasma glucose 2 hr plasma glucose 110 mg/dl to 125mg/dl <140mg/dl
PREVENTION AND CARE PRIMARY PREVENTION Population strategy High risk strategy SECONDARY PREVENTION To maintain blood glucose levels close to normal limits To maintain ideal body weight Treatment is based upon : Diet alone Diet and oral anti diabetics Diet and insulin
Glycosylated haemoglobin : It should be estimated every 6 months It provides a long-term index of glucose control Self care Home blood glucose monitoring TERTIARY PREVENTION Organisation of specialised diabetic clinics to provide diagnostic and management skills and for both clinical and epidemiological research
