Scientists know that both type 1 and type 2 diabetes can have genetic components. What they have yet to discover is the series of genes responsible for increasing a person's risk, says Emily Nosova, MD, an endocrinologist at Mount Sinai Diabetes Center. Genetics is the main risk factor for type 1 diabetes, though scientists think that exposure
When it comes to sheer traction and braking grip in wintry conditions, the Blizzak LT is the clear winner over the DM-V2. Independent testing by Tire Rack found the Blizzak LT stopped over 11 feet shorter on ice compared to the DM-V2. It also had better lateral and acceleration traction on packed snow and ice in testing.Diabetic nephropathy is a serious complication of type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. It's also called diabetic kidney disease. In the United States, about 1 in 3 people living with diabetes have diabetic nephropathy. Diabetic nephropathy affects the kidneys' usual work of removing waste products and extra fluid from the body. 2.4 Screening for type 1 diabetes risk with a panel of islet autoantibodies is currently recommended in the setting of a research trial or can be offered as an option for first-degree family members of a proband with type 1 diabetes. B. 2.5 Persistence of autoantibodies is a risk factor for clinical diabetes and may serve as an indication for
Perbedaan umum diabetes tipe 1 dan tipe 2. Perbedaan mendasar dari DM tipe 1 dan 2 terletak pada kondisi yang menyebabkan kenaikan gula darah. Meski ada pula perbedaan dari segi pengobatan dan waktu kemunculan gejala. Diabetes tipe 1 terjadi ketika tubuh tidak dapat memproduksi hormon insulin yang bertugas membantu penyerapan gula dalam darahAn insulin or C-peptide level below 5 µU/mL (0.6 ng/mL) suggests type 1 DM; a fasting C-peptide level greater than 1 ng/dL in a patient who has had diabetes for more than 1-2 years is suggestive of type 2 (ie, residual beta-cell function). wbTK.
