Insulin Producing Gland

 Insulin Producing

   Gland 'Pancrease'

Pancreas is an endocrine gland

Which means ductless gland 

Pancrease 

 Pancrease is like a Insulin Factory

The weight of pancrease is only  225grams
In this factory there are 3 types of workers
(cells)

Alpha
Beta
Delta
All these workers work for day and night
24hours. Most  important function of 
Insulin is carried out by beta workers.
Total beta workers are 80lak to 1core.
 These beta workers measure blood
Sugar every 10 to 15 seconds.
The appropriate needed insulin is produced.
By Beta workers.
If too much insulin is produced it could be dangerous as below 40mg% sugar
Brain cannot function .
To control this situation 
There are Alpha workers which produce
Hormone called Glucagon.To produce 
Glucose from glycogen.

   Type I Diabetes is a diabetes seen In children
It is 10% of the total diabetes .
.
Cytomegalovirus  destroy beta workers
In this situation insulin production is stopped
Requires insulin injections throughout  the
Life.

Type 2 diabetes when around.  50 %beta  workers damage 
Results in  almost 90% total diabetics  this type 
Found in  adults.
These patients can respond to oral diabetic
Medicines and some time may be insulin.

Lastly there are Delta workers in
Pancrease which produce harmone 
Called somatostatin the job of these
Workers is to  produce this harmone
As an inhibitor for insulin and glucagon.
Supervisory role.

Cholesterol Good or Bad

 Cholesterol Good

  Or Bad

Both types exist good as wel as  bad
Good cholesterol technically called as
HDL Chol
And Bad cholesterol technically called
As LDL-Chol
 Recent retrospective study performed ref 1
Of 1351 patients with myocardial ischemia
Who underwent coronary angiography.

Results :

Higher LDL /HDL ratio was seen in  CAHD
Patients than controls
(2.94 +- 1.06  Vs 2.36+- 0.78 p lesss than .05)
Note normal range LDL/HDL.  2.5to3.5

CAHD ---Coronary atherosclerotic Heart
                  Disease
 Framingham study confirmed that low
Level of HDL-C increased the incidence
Of CAHD related events are regarded
As one of the indicators for cardiovascular
Disease.

        HDL-C {Good Cholesterol}

 can strengthen the surrounding 
Tissue of the arterial wall , preventing
Cholesterol deposition in arterial wall.

Conclusions :Decrease of HDL-C

And increase of LDL -C {Bad cholesterol}

May be involved in the progression of

Atherosclerosis and promote development of CAHD

Atherosclerosis a disease of the arteries

Characterized by the deposition 

Of fatty material on their inner walls.

Note  serum HDL low if less than 40mg/dl

           Serum LDL cholesterol  high 160 and Above

Diabetes &Risk Factors

Diabetes & Risk Factors 

Using a cross Sectional

Data of 7674 individuals

Drawn from health and demographic surveillance

  (HDSS) 

In rural India this study assesses the The physiological

and behavioral risk  Factors associated with Type 2 Diabetes.

Being over weight /obese and low level  Of physical activity ,are potential risk factors.

India Chinta and USA are known for largest
Number of patients with diabetes.

India and china diabetes occurs in the age 
Group of 45 to 64 years.
 High Body Mass Index (BMI) Refer my
Article BMI (Body Mass Index) March 26
2019 drsgv.bloger.com)
 for over weight
/Obesity increases the probability
Of diabetes.

       Diabetes starts to increase at very low
Levels of BMI for Indians.
         Higher percentage of body fat that is
Concentrated in the abdominal area is a
Key risk factor for developing diabetes.

      Foods high in calories sugar and animal fat
But low in vitamins and minerals derived
From fruits and vegetables.
       Maharashtra and Andhra Pradesh
Report high prevalence of diabetes along
With BMI.
        More commonly ,rich and privileged
Groups have abandoned the traditional
Diet,and as their purchasing power is
High they are inclined to buy high calorie
Foods.

  Several randomised  control

Trials have shown that life style modification

Can reduced conversion from pre --diabetes

To type 2 diabetes by 50 %.

  Interventions
1 Encourage Physical activity
2 which in turn will maintain BMI and
Ultimately reduced burden of diabetes.
3 Restoration of traditional diet in Rural
India over food with high high calorie
Concentration.

Key factors to be noted

1 Meta---analysis revealed that smokers
Had a 45% increase risk of developing
Diabetes compaired with non---Smokers.
2 Accumulations of visceral adipose tissue
Among smokers.
3 High consumption of alcohol leads to
   excess caloric intake and obesity which
In turn accelerates propensity for diabetes.

जेवणा नंतर चालणे फायदेशीर

 जेवणा नंतर चालणे फायदेशीर

असे समजले आहे की जेवणा नंतर चालणे फायदेशीर आहे
कारण सकाळ च्या नास्ता दुपारचे जेवण किंवा रात्रीच्या
जेवणानंतर   रक्तातीलसाखर वाढू लागते यास चालण्याचा चांगला
परिणाम होतो .साखर परिणाम कारक कमी होते.

रक्तातील साखर वाढ जेवणानंतरची हृदयाचे रोग (cardio
Metabolic disorders) वाढि ची चिन्हे असु शकतील
निरोगी आणि मधुमेही मध्ये.

चालणे हे जेवणानंतर रक्तातील साखर शिखरावर जाण्या 
आधी असावे .

एका पाहणीत असे आढळले की जेवणानंतर 30 मिनिटे

चालल्यास रक्तातील साखर बऱ्या प्रमाणात कमी झाली

 चालणे डॉक्टर च्या सल्याने करावे.

 Post Prandial walking

& Glucose


Post prandial walking has   

Been proven effective for improving

Glycemic response to different meals   

Of the day .(   i.e . Breakfast Lunch and

Dinner.)  

      Elevated post prandial blood glucose

Concentration and large glycemic excursions

Have been identified as better predictors

Of cardiometabolic disorders than fasting 

Hyperglycemia in both healthy individuals

And diabetic patients.

        Previous studies have been widely

demonstrated that  exercising after meal

Provides greater reduction in post meal 

Glycemia peak compare to pre meal exercise.

  Especially when exercise starts before   Peak Glucose Levels.

Diabetes & Glycemic variability

Diabetes & Glycemic

Variability

Glycemic means blood glucose level 

Normal glucose tolerance

Glycemia maintained between 68.4mg
And 138.6mg,/dl

When it is low called as hypoglycemia
When high called as hyperglycemia
Glycemic variability means blood glucose
Variation that occur throughout the day.
Post prandial spikes in blood glucose
As well as hypoglycemic events are blamed 
For increase cardiovascular events in diabetes.

Gv

Includes both the above events hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.

Hence need for minimising GV which
can prevent cardiovascular events.

GV which refers to swings in blood glucose
Levels.Blood glucose oscillations that occur
Through out the day.

Intra day glycemic excursions , includes
Episodes of hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.

Microvascular (small blood vessels) and
Microvascular (large vessels)
Complications in diabetes is attributed to
Hyperglycemia and dysglycemia  (peaks and
Nadirs )

HbA1c :Time average glucose

Values measured .
HbA1c has become reference parameter 
For therapies aimed at reducing the risk 
Of complications from diabetes. 
Chronic hyperglycemia is almost universally
Assessed by HbA1c.

HbA1c is poor predictor

Of hypoglycemic risk,whereas GV
Is the strong predictor of hypoglycemic 
Episodes.

It is advisable  to make every effort

To maintain stable glycemic values.

Diabetes& Blood glucose variationaration

Diabetes &Blood Glucose variation

Glucose variation means glycemic variability
In scientific term

To know glycemic variability
First what is glycemic ? Glycemic means 
How fast the glucose rises in the blood

Higher the glycemia means high glucose in blood
Or hyperglycemia.
Lower the glycemia means low glucose 
In blood or hypoglycemia.

Glycated hemoglobin or 

HbA1 c  are similar Terms

HbA1c reflects previous 3 months glycemic control.


This test HbA 1c is the gold standard for long

Term glycemic control and response to 
medical treatment in patients with diabetes.
Glycated Hemoglobin ,however doesn't 
Address fluctuations in blood glucose.
 Glycemic variation (GV) :
Is associated with increased risk 
Of hypoglycemia , microvascular ( small artery
Disease)
and 
Macrovascular complications:( large blood
Vessel disease) ,and mortality
In patients with diabetes  independently
Of HbA1c .

       The use of  continuous glucose monitoring
Devices has  markedly improved the
Assessment of GV in clinical practice.

And  facilitated the assessment  GV
Hyperglycemia ,hypoglycemia events
In patients with diabetes.

High HbA1c is risk indicator of diabetic 
Complications . 

HbA1c treatment goal 6.5% to 7.5%


Several studies have reported that reductions

In HbA1c is associated with significant 

Reduction in microvascular complications

(Retinopathy ,Nephropathy, and Neuropathy)

Retinopathy retina eye disease retina is the screen of the eye

Nephropathy;Kidney disease

Neuropathy :Nerve disorder

As well as decreased cardiovascular

and diabetes--–related mortality.

HbA1c does  not address 

short term

Glycemic variability (GV)

Or daily fluctuations in blood glucose
Levels or hypoglycemic events.


GV to help clinicians and patients to overcome

the limitations of HbA1c in diabetes management.

Glycemic variability refers to swings in
Blood glucose levels.It means oscillations
that occur throughout the day.Including
Episodes Of hypoglycemia and post prandial
Hyperglycemia.

Reduction in HbA1c leads to lower rates
In diabetic complications.

CGM : Continuous glucose monitoring
Sensors introduced in 1999
Is a better way to assess GV (Glycemic variation)
CGM measures interstial glucose every 1
To 5min
Mitigating the need of capillary SMBG(
Self Glucose monitored blood glucose
Capillary blood)

Anti diabetic strategy : 

Aim HbA1c Fasting Post prandial glucose
As well as GV by frequent blood glucose 
Concentrations measurements in 
Continuous time fashion.
Using CGM.
Measurements .

Oats use in diabetes

       Oats use in                Diabetes

 Ref 1
Oats ancient grains cultivated and consumed
Worldwide .
      Beta glucan is an important component
Of dietary fiber found in Oats grains.
It is the major active compound in Oats
With proven cholesterol lowering and anti
Diabetic effects .
        Oat (Avena sativa L.) Is unique that
bear value for human food  ,animal feed
,Health care.
          It is annual crop cultivated for more
Than 2000 years in different parts of the 
World.
           Oat is grain in breakfast cereals
Beverages,and bread.

     

Ref  2   Carl Von Noorden


A German Physician and diabetologist 

Reported the first therapeutic effects of Oats

The attenuation of blood glucose levels in 1903.

Since then Oats have been shown to improve
Insulin sensitivity ,glucose metabolism
And blood lipid profile.


Meta analysis:using data

From 471157 participants from 8 studies.
 Overall authors finding (Ref 2)
Show that high Oats consumption is
Associated with a lower risk of Type
Two Diabetes and all -cause mortality
But not consistently with CVD (cardio 
Vascular Disease)

 European commission

(Ref 1)

Approved health claim about the potential
Of OBG (Oat Beta Glucan)
In reducing postprandial glycemia
For which one has to consume 4grams
Of OBG for each 30grams of available
Carbohydrates per meal.
