Complications of Diabetes
You Think simple, if you are carrying the disease diabetes lethal but if you think there is a small problem you ignore it. And then what you will see after a long period diabetes can cause complications to all parts of your body. And even worse, you see the complications of chronic lethal but you can not expect to.
Diabetes complications if not detected early and treated promptly, the disease will progress rapidly and appeared to acute and chronic complications. Patients may die from this complication. There are two basic types of complications often seen in most patients with long-term diabetes:
Acute Complications: Complications of Acute usually the result of late diagnosis, infectionacute or inappropriate treatment. Even when treated properly, coma acidosis and coma ketones increased osmotic pressure should both dangerous complications. Ketones acidosis is severe manifestations of metabolic disorders caused by lack of insulin causes glucose increased blood glucose, increased lipid decomposition, popular ketones can cause acidification of the organization. Although modern medicine has made progress on equipment, treatment and care, the mortality rate is high 5-10%.
Coma increased osmotic pressure condition is severe glucose metabolic disorders, high blood sugar. Coma increased osmotic pressure accounted for 5-10%. In patients with type 2 diabetes several years, the mortality rate of 30-50%. Many comatose patients, the first sign of disease increased blood glucose. This demonstrates an understanding of diabetes has not been popular in the community.
Chronic Complications: Complications are cyclical and clearly expressed in a number of related diseases later.
- Complications heart - show circuit cardiovascular disease in patients with diabetes are common complications and dangers. Although there are many factors that may cause coronary heart disease, but studies show that high blood glucose levels increase the risk of coronary heart disease and other cardiovascular complications. People with diabetes have heart disease is 45%, the risk of cardiovascular disease than 2-4 times higher than normal. Cause of death from cardiovascular disease accounts for about 75% of overall mortality in patients with diabetes, including myocardial ischemia and myocardial infarction as the cause of death is greatest. A study conducted on 353 patients with type 2 diabetes is Mexican-American in 8 years saw 67 patients and 60% of deaths due to coronary artery disease. Hypertension is common in patients with diabetes, the incidence hypertension common in patients with diabetes than double the normal. In type 2 diabetes, 50% of diabetic patients newly diagnosed with hypertension. Increased blood pressure in people with type 2 diabetes often accompanied by metabolic disorders and hyperlipidemia. In addition, the rate of cerebrovascular complications in patients with diabetes than 1.5 to 2 times, lower limb arthritis than 5-10 times higher than normal.
- Renal Complications: Complications Diabetic nephropathy is one of the common complications, complication rates increased over time. Diabetic nephropathy onset of proteinuria; then the reduced renal function, urea and creatinine builds up in the blood. Diabetic nephropathy is the most common cause of end-stage renal failure. For people with type 1 diabetes, ten years after kidney disease manifestations clear, 50% progressed to end-stage renal failure and after 20 years there will be about 75% of patients on dialysis to hemodialysis cycle . Ability to changes in end-stage renal failure patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus patients less than type 1 diabetes, but the number of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus very large proportion of patients actually end-stage renal failure patients mainly with type 2 diabetes.
- Diseases of the eye in patients with diabetes: Cataracts are common lesions in diabetic patients, seems to correlate with disease duration and level of prolonged hyperglycemia. Cataracts in older people with diabetes will progress faster than the non-diabetic. Retinopathy Diabetes is the leading cause of blindness in people 20-60 years of age. Mild disease manifested by increased capillary permeability, at a later stage progression to occlusion of blood, vascular popular with a weak pulse easy bleeding cause blindness. After 20 years of disease, most patients with type 1 diabetes and 60% of patients with type 2 diabetes have retinopathy diabetic.
- Neuropathy due to diabetes: neuropathy due to diabetes met quite common, an estimated 30% of patients with manifest diabetes complications. Patients with diabetes type 2 diabetes often have neurological abnormalities at the time of diagnosis. Neuropathy caused by diabetes is usually divided into the following major syndromes: Acutepolyneuropathy, single nerve disease, neurological diseases of plants, motor neurone disease chi original.
- Pathology diabetic foot: Pathology diabetic foot is increasingly concerned by the popularity the disease. Disease due to diabetic foot combination damage injured blood vessels, peripheral nerves and muscles easily place infections high blood glucose.
A notice of WHO in March showed that 15% of people with diabetes-related foot disease, 20% of people admitted to hospital due to leg ulcers. Patients with diabetic lower limb amputation is 15 times more than people without diabetes, accounting for 45-70% of all cases of leg amputation.
- Infection in Diabetic Patients: Patients with diabetes are often sensitive to all types of infections caused by many factors favorable. Infection may occur in many organs such as urinary tract infections, dental infections, osteomyelitis, cholecystitis steam generator, fungal infections candida ...
- Lipid metabolism disorders in patients with diabetes: Dyslipidemia is a disorder and or increasing concentrations of lipid components in the blood, resulting in the formation atherosclerotic plaque symbolization, as increased risk of cardiovascular events and stroke, increased complications other blood vessels. Today, we see hav dyslipidemiasince the ratio of the components of blood lipid changes. Dyslipidemia mainly in people with type 1 diabetes is low amounts of plasma lipoproteins, increased LDC - C granules, dense. The anomaly will improved in parallel with the control of blood glucose. People with type 2 diabetes often have hypertriglyceridemia and low HDL - C (type lipoprotein considered protective function of the circuit), sometimes not depending on the level of blood sugar control. The new patients with type 2 diabetes often have the HDL - C lower in men from 20-50%, women 10-25%. Metabolism LDL - C and disorders in humans with type 2 diabetes mellitus, just LDL - C was also slightly increased risk factors for coronary artery disease increased significantly.
