, type 1 diabetes Diabetes of a form that usually develops during
childhood or adolescence and is characterized
by a severe deficiency of insulin, leading to high
blood glucose levels. polyuria, polydipsia,
polyphagia.
type 2 diabetes Diabetes of a form that develops especially in
adults and most often obese individuals and that
is characterized by high blood glucose resulting
from impaired insulin utilization coupled with the
body's inability to compensate with increased
insulin production.
Pathophysiology of diabetes The pathophysiology of diabetes involves plasm
concentrations of glucose signaling the central
nervous system to mobilize energy reserves. It is
based on cerebral blood flow and tissue
integrity, arterial plasma glucose, the speed that
plasma glucose concentrations fall, and other
available metabolic fuels. Low plasma glucose
causes a surge in autonomic activity.
acromegaly abnormal enlargement of the extremities. occurs
in adults
hyperthyroidism excessive activity of the thyroid gland- >thyroxine
ØInsomnia, restlessness, tremor, irritability,
palpitations, heat intolerance, diaphoresis,
diarrhea, inability to concentrate that interferes
with work performance; enlarged thyroid gland
ØIncreased basal metabolic rate leads to weight
loss, although appetite and dietary intake
increase.
