Diabetes Mellitus: Type 2 and Gestational01:22

Diabetes Mellitus: Type 2 and Gestational

4.2K
Type 2 diabetes, characterized by insulin resistance, arises when the insulin receptors on cells lose responsiveness to insulin, diminishing the cell's capacity to take up glucose, resulting in elevated blood glucose levels. To receive a diagnosis of Type 2 diabetes, a series of blood glucose tests are necessary to assess whether the blood glucose falls within normal parameters. If the result is out of the normal range, a patient may be diagnosed as prediabetic or diabetic, depending on the...

Diabetes: Symptoms, Diagnosis, and Complications

For most patients, experiencing several weeks of polyuria, polydipsia, fatigue, and significant weight loss may indicate the presence of diabetes. Furthermore, adults displaying the phenotypic appearance of type 2 diabetes (particularly those who are obese and not initially insulin-requiring), may have islet cell autoantibodies, suggesting autoimmune-mediated β cell destruction and a diagnosis of latent autoimmune diabetes of adults (LADA). The categorization of glucose homeostasis is...

Pathophysiology of Diabetes

2.9K
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by hyperglycemia. The four categories of diabetes are type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, other specific types of diabetes, and gestational 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,...

Diabetes Mellitus: Overview and Type I Subtype

4.7K
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by high blood glucose levels due to inadequate insulin production, insulin resistance, or both. The condition affects millions worldwide and can significantly impact their health and quality of life.
Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys the insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas. As a result, the body is unable to produce sufficient insulin, and individuals with...

Carbohydrate Metabolism01:36

Carbohydrate Metabolism

13.5K
Carbohydrates are polymers composed of molecules containing atoms of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. One gram of carbohydrate can provide four kilo-calories of energy, which makes it the most efficient instant energy source.
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...

Psychoneuroimmunology: Diabetes and Cancer

357
Chronic stress has been linked to both the onset and progression of serious health conditions, including Type 2 diabetes and cancer. Type 2 diabetes, a widespread chronic illness, is closely associated with obesity and insulin resistance, both of which often worsen under stress. Studies indicate that men experiencing high levels of chronic stress face a 45% higher risk of developing diabetes compared to those with minimal stress. Stress triggers physiological responses that elevate blood...

Area of Science:

  • Health Behavior Science
  • Diabetes Research
  • Risk Perception Studies

Background:

  • Cognitive risk perception influences health behaviors for type 2 diabetes prevention.
  • Review needed due to incongruence between perceived and actual diabetes risk.
  • Inconsistent measures for calculating perceived diabetes risk necessitate conceptual clarity.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To conduct a concept analysis of perceived diabetes risk.
  • To clarify the multidimensional nature of perceived diabetes risk.
  • To establish a basis for valid measurement of perceived diabetes risk.

Main Methods:

  • Walker and Avant approach for concept analysis.
  • Reviewed literature from dictionaries, thesauri, theoretical sources, and seminal works.
  • Searched PubMed, Embase, and CINAHL for 23 US-based studies on perceived diabetes risk.

Main Results:

  • Identified dimensions: perceived likelihood, personal, general, cognitive, emotional, comparative risk, and unrealistic optimism.
  • Antecedents include motivational, individual, contextual, cognitive, and affective factors.
  • A key consequence is engagement in health-promoting behaviors.

Conclusions:

  • Concept analysis enhances clarity of perceived diabetes risk as a multidimensional concept.
  • Provides a foundation for developing valid measurement tools.
  • Understanding antecedents is vital for effective diabetes prevention strategies.
