Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Obesity and type 2 diabetes are increasing worldwide problems. In this book we reviewed insulin secretion in both healthy individuals and in patients with type 2 diabetes. Because of the risk associated with progression from insulin resistance to diabetes and cardiovascular complications increases along a continuum, we included several chapters on the damage of endothelial cells in type 2 diabetes and genetic influences on endothelial cell dysfunction. Cardiovascular complications occur at a much lower glucose levels, thus a review on the oral glucose tolerance test compared to other methods was included. The medical conditions associated with type 2 diabetes such as pancreatic cancer, sarcopenia and sleep disordered breathing with diabetes were also discussed. The book concludes with several chapters on the treatments for this disease offering us hope in prevention and successful alleviation of the co-morbidities associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes.

Download or read book tat des connaissances des patients diab tiques de type 2 propos des complications du diab te written by Lisa Benoit and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Introduction : en France, la prévalence du diabète en 2016 était de 5%, dont 90% représentés par le diabète de type 2. Le diabète représente la première cause de cécité à 65 ans, de dialyse et d'amputation en France. Les complications cardiovasculaires sont la première cause de mortalité chez les patients diabétiques de type 2. Objectifs : évaluer les connaissances des patients diabétiques de type 2 à propos des complications du diabète. Les objectifs secondaires cherchaient à identifier un lien entre caractéristiques épidémiologiques et diabétologiques et niveau de connaissances des patients. Matériel et méthodes : étude descriptive quantitative réalisée grâce à des auto-questionnaires distribués dans les cabinets de médecine générale et au sein du service de l'hôpital de jour de l'hôpital de la Conception. Résultats : au total, 200 questionnaires ont été recueillis. Dans l'ensemble, les patients avaient un assez bon niveau de connaissances. 60% des patients savaient la définition de l'hémoglobine glyquée, 50% des patients n'avaient pas la notion que le diabète pouvait être responsable d'une impuissance. Pour 46% des patients, les complications du diabète sont inévitables. Notre étude a mis en évidence un lien entre ancienneté du diabète et niveau de connaissances. Ce dernier était également influencé par la catégorie socio-professionnelle. Enfin, les patients suivis uniquement par le médecin traitant avaient un niveau de connaissances plus faible que ceux suivis par l'endocrinologue. Conclusion : il semble nécessaire de développer l'éducation thérapeutique des patients en renforçant la formation des médecins généralistes, en valorisant cette pratique financièrement et en favorisant l'exercice coordonné multidisciplinaire.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cinq ans se sont écoulés depuis la dernière édition de cet ouvrage consacré au diabète sucré, maladie dont la fréquence ne cesse d’augmenter et dont la prise en charge progresse et se personnalise continuellement. Pour tenir compte de ces évolutions, cette troisième édition a été entièrement actualisée et enrichie de nouveaux chapitres. Nous avons notamment insisté sur les aspects pratiques de la prise en charge et les nouvelles méthodes d’exploration, de suivi et de traitement. Les nouvelles stratégies diagnostiques et thérapeutiques ont été particulièrement développées en tenant compte des avancées scientifiques les plus récentes. Cinq nouveaux chapitres ont été créés : les effets des traitements anti-hyperglycémiants sur les complications cardiovasculaires et rénales du patient diabétique de type 2 ; les enregistrements glycémiques continus dans les diabètes de type 1 et 2 ; la dysbiose intestinale et les maladies métaboliques ; les complications hépatiques ; le ramadan. Les nouvelles recommandations diagnostiques et thérapeutiques ont été approfondies dans le continuum de la longue histoire du diabète sucré. Deux chapitres entièrement actualisés, « arbres thérapeutiques et décisionnels dans le diabète de type 2 » et « insulinothérapie dans les diabètes de type 1 et 2 », leur sont consacrés. Didactique et pratique, cet ouvrage s’adresse à l’ensemble des professionnels de santé concernés par la prise en charge des patients diabétiques.

This book was released on 2017-04-04 with total page 569 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Novateur et pratique, cet ouvrage de référence offre au diabétologue, à l’interne et au médecin généraliste, 55 démarches cliniques se basant sur les connaissances scientifiques actuelles et les recommandations des différentes organisations (HAS, ADA/EASD). Chaque cas clinique y est développé selon le même plan : 1• Point de départ : description du cas clinique précédé par un rappel de « l’état de l’art » (épidémiologique, physiopathologique, clinique et thérapeutique). 2• Itinéraire de la démarche à partir du point de départ : commentaire du cas clinique par l’expert, suivi d’une argumentation pour ou contre les différentes solutions proposées. 3• Point d’arrivée : énoncé de la solution sur laquelle l’expert a porté son choix préférentiel. 4• Conclusion et évolution possible au cours des années à venir. Les 55 démarches cliniques correspondent à la majorité des situations auxquelles est confronté le médecin en pratique médicale courante : par exemple, sujets chez lesquels on découvre un diabète ou qui nécessitent des ajustements thérapeutiques du fait de l’évolution de leur maladie, de la présence de complications en rapport avec le diabète ou de situations rencontrées dans leur vie quotidienne et pouvant interférer sur leur équilibre glycémique. Cet ouvrage fait appel aux avancées les plus récentes en matière de diabétologie. Il s’adresse à l’ensemble des professionnels de santé concernés par la prise en charge des patients diabétiques, et nous espérons qu’ils trouveront sa lecture agréable et profitable.
