[Pancreas at metabolic syndrome]
Abstract:
Authors showed the possible role of the pancreas namely in chronic pancreatitis (CP) in development of metabolic syndrome (MS). Apportionment of the basic clinical syndromes which cause development, both MS, and CP is important. There was noticed that pathogenetic approach to therapy of MS should be cased on understanding of pathogenetic contribution of pancreas functional condition to metabolic changes. Careful studying of this problem will give an opportunity for working out clinico-diagnostic, morphological and laboratory criteria of diagnostics of MS in pancreatic pathology in the future. It will allow to control efficiency of treatment that should consist of two stages--corrections of MS and treatment of the damaged target organ, namely--the pancreas.

Pathophysiology of Diabetes
Type 1 diabetes is characterized by autoimmune-mediated destruction of pancreatic β cells, with environmental factors potentially triggering this process in genetically susceptible individuals. Despite many not having a family history, certain genes increase susceptibility, suggesting a...

The broad head of the pancreas lies within the loop formed by the duodenum, while its slender body reaches towards the spleen. The tail of the pancreas is short and...
Carbohydrate Metabolism
Starch accounts for approximately 60% of the carbohydrates consumed by humans. Since amylase enzymes cannot function in the stomach's acidic environment, starch can only be digested in the mouth and small intestine. Simple sugars are found naturally in milk and fruits in the...
