Diabetes Mellitus

Ninja Nerds!

In this lecture, Professor Zach Murphy will present on Diabetes Mellitus. We will discuss the pathophysiology, differentiating between Type 1 diabetes, characterized by autoimmune destruction of insulin-producing beta cells in the pancreas, and Type 2 diabetes, resulting from insulin resistance and relative insulin deficiency. The lecture will include a discussion on the clinical manifestations, such as polyuria, polydipsia, and unexplained weight loss. The digital presentation will begin with the diagnostic approach, highlighting the importance of fasting plasma glucose levels, the oral glucose tolerance test, and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) measurements. Finally, we will review management strategies for Diabetes Mellitus, emphasizing the role of dietary management, physical activity, blood glucose monitoring, insulin therapy for Type 1 diabetes, and oral hypoglycemic agents for Type 2 diabetes.
