Description

Diabetes word comes from the Greek word "urinate a lot," Que es la principal
feature of esta disease. The term Mellitus means "honey", which is another
manifestation, because the urine has lots of azcar.Se is a chronic disease characterized
by the existence of high levels f glucose (sugar) levels by an alteration secretion and / or
insulin action.
Also the metabolism of other carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and The Importance
residing in their frequency and the chronic complications, one of the major causes of
disability and premature death in most developed countries is affected.
When insulin can not be produced in normal quantities, glucose (sugar) can not
normally enter the cells accumulate in the blood, which is denominator hyperglycemia
(elevated blood sugar) and results in S to be removed in large amounts in the urine,
dragging behind them the large volume of body water (polyuria: urine in larger
amounts) UN UN producing state secondary dehydration, which, the body tries to
compensate by increasing thirst, Lo that obli affected person drink Huge amounts of
fluid (polydipsia) .In these circumstances, compensatory mechanisms of the body wake
up feeling hungry and personality Begins an eating larger amounts of food
(Polyphagia), increases glucose in the body et al unable to enter the cells, it
builds up, thereby producing a mayor hyperglycemia with consequent vicious circle
negativo.Al Talk to the Expert Diabetes Rating: Diabetes Mellitus type 1DM1: Also
called youth: type 1 diabetes is a condition characterized by the absence of insulin in the
body. In case of not receiving insulin can develop diabetic ketoacidosis, a complication
that if not remedied promptly may cause death. It usually appears in childhood or
adolescence and requires Lifetime insulin use. Formerly he called juvenile diabetes or
insulin-dependent diabetes.
Diabetes Mellitus type 2DM2: was characterized by insufficient production of
insulin. Is the most common, more than 90 of every 100 diabetics have this type of
diabetes and most starts from the fourth decade of life, but being described is
increasingly obese adolescents. Formerly called adult-onset diabetes or non-insulin-

dependiente.Diabetes Gestacional She given in 2 to 5% of pregnant women, but

disappears when the pregnancy ends. They mayor risk of developing diabetes later after
pregnancy, 5 to 10 percent of women who have diabetes had during pregnancy develop
type 2 diabetes, and have a probability of 20-50% of diabetes During develop 5-10
years after the type 1 diabetes and pregnancy.
Type 2 son the best known by all, but not the only child. Indeed, there are other
less known that although affect UN Population percentage Menor, precisely why,
because they are less prevalent, the people who suffer are often misdiagnosed. This is
the case of diabetes of 1.5, or also known comodiabetes LADA, which is the acronym in
English of latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (autoimmune diabetes in adults).
Initially the diagnosis given by the professional medical field in type 2 diabetes, because
the patient at first usually respond to oral anti-diabetic treatments, since their pancreas
still produce enough insulin, causing errors Diagnostic UN.
Causes
For the illness occurs is considered that they have to be a combination of factors;
There must be a genetic predisposition and esta Based virus is believed that the UN or
some type of trauma triggers an immune response in which the body destroys the cells
that produce insulina.Diabetes Mellitus type 1 (DM1) is mainly a mass phenomenon un
destruction of insulin-producing cells. These cells in the pancreas itself. In most cases
the disappearance Mainly UN Should a self-destruct phenomenon mediated by the selfdestruction of insulin-producing cells inmunolgico.La System in the vast majority of
cases is an autoimmune phenomenon. This! It means that the body's defenses
mistakenly recognize any tissue of the body as if it were a strange substance and attack
to destroy it. In other cases destruction can be caused by one any inflammation of the
pancreas or rarely a UN neoplastic process.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) Type 2 diabetes is characterized by a marked
inefficiency paragraph Body How to use insulin. Mostly a combination of genetic
factors associated with Lifestyle factors such as obesity and inappropriate dietary habits
are due. Normally the Agency compensates by producing a mayor amount of insulin,
which may be occurring for many years before there is any evidence of glucose

intolerance. After several years keeping an overproduction of insulin, the pancreas Start
a fail and both the insulin resistance becomes more pronounced. It is at this point that
the IGT Start a manifest; In Currently there are no symptoms of hay, but unfortunately
all the evidence pointed tail Complications of diabetes begin to develop. WHEN the
ability to produce insulin is affected enough para reach a stable elevated blood sugar,
most people have
