Diabetes

TermDefinition
Glucagon Stimulate glycolysis; Stimulate hepatic gluconeogenesis and ketogenesis
Insulin Stimulate Glu uptake by muscles and adipose tissue; Suppress glucagon secretion; Stimulate glycogen, protein, and fat synthesis; Stimulate Glu use as energy
Amylin Suppress glucagon secretion; Slow gastric emptying; Reduce food intake and body weight
GLP-1 Stimulate Glu-dependent insulin release; Suppress glucagon secretion; Slow gastric emptying; Reduce food intake and body weight; Promote beta-cell health
ADA American Diabetes Association
AACE/ACE American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists/American College of Endocrinology
Diagnostic criteria for Pre-DM Fasting: 100-125 Postprandial: 140-199 A1C: 5.7-6.4% (ADA) or 5.5-6.4% (AACE)
ADA Targets Fasting: 80-130 Postprandial: <180 A1C: 7%
AACE/ACE Targets Fasting: <110 Postprandial: <140 A1C: <6.5%
DCCT T1DM: Aggressive Glu control (>3 shots/day or pump) decreases microvascular complications
UKPDS T2DM: Each 1% decrease in A1C = 35% reduction in microvascular complications; No impact on macrovascular; Metformin decreased macrovascular risk in obese populations
ACCORD T2DM: Ended early due to increased rate of mortality in intensive glycemic control group (A1C <6%)
ADVANCE T2DM: Intensive control (A1C <6.5%) decreased risk of renal events, but no difference in major macrovascular events
VADT T2DM: No difference in macrovascular events or mortality
Macrovascular Brain (stroke) Heart (CAD) Extremities (PVD)
Microvascular Eyes (retinopathy) Kidney (nephropathy) Nerves (neuropathy)
HTN Management Screening: annually Goal: <140/90 Treatment: lifestyle modifications and ACEI/ARB
Lipid Management Screening: at diagnosis and every 5 years Treatment: <40 and no risk factors = none; >40 and no risk factors = moderate; risk factors or ASCVD = high
High intensity statins Atorvastatin 40-80 mg Rosuvastatin 20-40 mg
Antiplatelet Therapy Primary Px: ASA if >50 + risk factor(s) Secondary Px: ASA 75-162 mg/day
Nephropathy Screening: annually Goal: urine albumin/Cr <30 Treatment: ACEI/ARB; protein restriction (0.8 g/kg/day)
Peripheral Neuropathy Screening: annual w/monofilament Treatment: TCAs, gabapentin, pregabalin, duloxetine, tapentadol
Retinopathy Screening: annual w/dilation Treatment: refer to ophthalmologist
Immunizations Annual flu vaccine Pneumococcal vaccine Hepatitis B vaccine
NICE-SUGAR Inpatient DM: Less stringent Glu control (<180) had decreased mortality and decreased hypogylcemia

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:
