• Gestational diabetes
Other specific types
• Genetic defects of beta-cell function
• MODY 1-6 (dominantly inherited, family members affected)
• Mitochondrial DNA mutation- maternally transmitted (↓insulin, ↓B cells)
• Wolfram’s syndrome (DI,DM, Optic atrophy, deafness-DIDMOAD)
o Classic symptoms
• Polyuria, Polydipsia, Weight loss despite increased appetite, Lethargy
o Blood glucose
• Fasting > 7.0 mmol/L, Random > 11.1 mmol/L, 2 abnormal values
recommended in asymptomatic children, 1 abnormal value in
symptomatic children
o Urinalysis for ketones, glucose
o HbA1c
o Screen for infection

DM COMPLICATIONS
- MECHANISMS
So HOW does diabetes damage blood vessels?
Best understood mechanism is by non-enzymatic
glucosylation (glycation) of proteins and other
macromolecules.
Because RBCs (and thus Hg) survive in the blood for 90-120
days, the HgA1c provides a means to assess glycemic control
over this period.
Chronic hyperglycemia causes increased glycation of proteins,
resulting in Advanced Glycation End-products (AGEs)
