Leading cause of:1 • End-stage renal disease • Adult blindness • Amputations Insulin Deficiency1 Insulin Resistance1 • 3 Major Types:1 • Type I • Type II • Gestational 8% of Americans currently have diabetes2 Men and women have different Clinical Presentations3 and Responses to Treatment4 Introduction
Pancreas Cell Biology Beta Cell Islets of Langerhans
Liver 4 GI Tract Skeletal Muscle 1 Glucose 3 Glucose uptake Insulin 2 Pancreas Physiology Adipocytes
Liver 4 GI Tract Skeletal Muscle 1 Glucose 3 No Glucose uptake Insulin 2 Pancreas Pathology Adipocytes
Lean muscle metabolizes glucose independent of insulin1 Glucose • On average, men have more skeletal muscle than women2 • Diabetic men achieve glucose control faster than women Skeletal Muscle
Liver Glucagon • Diabetic women produce stress hormones: • During ovulation4 • As a part of premenstrual syndrome5 • During pregnancy6 Pancreas Glucose Glucose Cortisol Glucagon and Cortisol
Autoimmune Disease1 Insulin replacement • The immune system destroys the insulin-secreting cells • Patients require insulin replacement • No Insulin Production Type I Diabetes
Metabolic Disorder1 GIucose • Insulin receptors do not bind insulin • No cellular signal produced • Insulin Resistance Insulin No Signal Type II Diabetes
Sex-Exclusive Disease • Occurs only in Women • High risk for • Type 2 Diabetes1 • High risk for Cardiovascular Disease2 Gestational Diabetes
25 Million Americans have diabetes • 8% of the population • 95% of diabetic population has Type 2 Diabetes By the year 2050… 1 in 3 Epidemiology Will have Type 2 Diabetes
Frequent urination, polydipsea, polyphagia, fatigue, blurry vision, weight loss, numbness in hands and feet1 Men Erectile dysfunction (ED) is common among type 2 diabetics. Women Reoccurring yeast infections are commonly seen in both type 1 and type 2 females. Clinical Presentation
BMI 25 plus 1 risk factor:1 Screening
Classes of Medications1 • Insulin • Biguanide • Sulfonylurea • Thiazolidinedione • Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitor Treatment
Type I Diabetes • Insulin Replacement is required1 Type II Diabetes Insulin Replacement may become necessary1 Women require more insulin2 Insulin Therapy
Enhances insulin sensitivity in muscle and adipose tissue1 Inhibits hepatic glucose production1 • Increases cardiac glucose uptake in women2 • Negatively effects heart metabolism in men2 Biguanide Metformin (Glucophage; Glucophage XR)
Pancreas Stimulate insulin secretion from the beta cells in the pancreas1 Side effects include hypoglycemia and weight gain1 Sulfonylureas Insulin Glyburide (Diabeta, Glynase, Micronase); Glipizide (Glucotrol, Glucotrol XL); Glimepiride (Amaryl) Beta Cell
Reduces insulin resistance and redistributes fat1 Signal • Men and women are at higher risk for fractures2 • Women are at risk for osteoporosis2 • May induce ovulation in women with PCOS1 Thiazolidinediones Pioglitazone (Actos); Rosiglitazone (Avandia
Pancreas Decreases glucagon secretion1 Stimulates insulin secretion1 Less glucagon means less glucose production from the liver1 Dipeptidyl Peptidase 4 Inhibitors Glucagon Alogliptin (Nesina); Linagliptin (Tradjenta); Saxagliptin (Onglyza); Sitagliptin (Januvia) Alpha Cell
Men Men moderate their intake of unhealthy food (except in social environments)1 Women Restrict unhealthy food from their diets1 Nutrition
Women • Higher incidence of depression and anxiety5 • Higher risk for blindness3 • Higher risk for myocardial infarction3 • Higher mortality after anMI3 • Men • Higher rates of amputation1,2 • Greater risk for peripheral vascular disease3 • Higher risk for erectile dysfunction4 Prognosis
Women are more likely to… Men are more likely to… • Reveal their condition to friends and family • Assimilate diabetes management into their schedule • Keep their diabetes hidden from friends and family • Ignore their diabetes management in social situations Social Considerations
