an overview
Aly A. Abdel-Rahim, MD
Diabetes is a disorder
caused by the
presence of too much
glucose in the blood.
A first depiction of this
“sugar disease” was
described in the
“Ebers Papyrus”, a
papyrus sold to the
German Egyptologist
Georg Moritz Ebers in
1872. It was said to
have been found close
to a mummy in the
tomb of Thebes and
appears to have been
written between 3000
and 1500 BC.
History
• They convinced
themselves that they
had discovered the
active pancreatic
hormone which
normalizes the blood
sugar.

normal:
• FBS <100

Oral Antihyperglycemic Therapy for
Type 2 Diabetes: Scientific Review
• Mechanism
– Increase insulin secretion by pancreas
• Advantages
– Well established, Decrease microvascular
risk, Convenient dosing
• Disadvantages
– Hypoglycemia, Weight gain
• FDA Approval for combination therapy
– Metformin, TZD, acarbose
• Mechanism
– Increase insulin secretion by pancreas
• Advantages
– Targets post-prandial glycemia
• Disadvantages
– TID dosing, No long-term data
• FDA Approval for combination therapy
– Metformin
Adapted from SE Inzucchi, JAMA 2002; 287:360-372.
Biguanides
e.g. Metformin
• Mechanism
– Decrease hepatic glucose production
• Advantages
– Well established, Weight loss, No hypoglycemia,
Decrease micro & macrovascular risk, Convenient
dosing, [Also prevents diabetes]
• Disadvantages
– GI distress, Lactic acidosis, Contraindications
• FDA Approval for combination therapy
– Insulin, SU and non-SU secretagogues, TZD
• Mechanism
– Decrease gut carbohydrate absorption
• Advantages
– Targets post-prandial hyperglycemia, No
systemic absorption, [Also prevents diabetes]
• Disadvantages
– GI distress, TID dosing, No long-term data
• FDA Approval for combination therapy
– Sulfonylureas
• Mechanism
– Increase peripheral glucose disposal
• Advantages
– Physiologically “correct,” Convenient dosing,
[Also prevents diabetes]
• Disadvantages
– Liver toxicity, Liver monitoring, Weight gain,
Edema, No long-term data
• FDA Approval for combination therapy
– Insulin, sulfonylurea, metformin
Adapted from SE Inzucchi, JAMA 2002; 287:360-372.

Hypoglycemia
Symptoms and Signs
• Sweating, tremors, pounding heart beats.
• Pallor, cold sweat, irritability
• May develop coma.

Prevention of Hypoglycemia
• Oral carbohydrate:
– 10-15 gms, repeat after 15 minutes if needed
– glucose tabs preferred; food acts slower, adds
unneeded calories (fat, protein)
• IV Glucose
– 20-50 cc of D50
• Glucagon
– 1 mg IM

• Background retinopathy
– present in 90% of patients after 10 years
– asymptomatic
– red dots (microaneurysms)
– dot, blot, and flame shaped hemorrhages
– hard waxy exudates of lipid and protein
– best detected by dilated eye exam or photos
Background Retinopathy
Diabetic Retinopathy
• Macular edema
– sight threatening edema of the macula
– usually reduces visual acuity early
– can only be diagnosed by ophthalmologic
exam
– focal photocoagulation reduces risk of
blindness by 50%
Diabetic Retinopathy
• Proliferative retinopathy
– growth of small, fragile blood vessels that may
bleed (vitreous hemorrhage)
– associated with growth of fibrous tissue that
may cause retinal detachment
– may occur on the optic disk or elsewhere
– high risk of blindness (50% in 3 years)
– hypertension, isometric exercise, high contact
sports may increase risk of bleeding
