Abstract:
Different prediabetic states precede overt type 2 diabetes. Prediabetes also carries an increased cardiovascular risk per seand may be divided into fasting hyperglycemia, impaired glucose tolerance and intermediate hyperglycemia. Mixed forms of these are very common. Prediabetes develops insidiously for many years and usually produces no symptoms until very late. It is possible to prevent prediabetes from progressing to manifest type 2 diabetes and it can also be made to revert to normoglycemia. The importance of lifestyle interventions, pharmacological treatment, surgical treatment and community efforts is discussed.

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,...
Tumor Progression
Colon cancer is one of the best-documented examples of tumor progression. Early mutation in the APC gene in colon cells causes a small growth on the colon wall called a polyp. With time, this polyp grows into a benign, pre-cancerous tumor. Further...
