An Overview of Diabetes Esri Arcscripts

It is estimated that 5-10% of Americans who are diagnosed with diabetes have type 1. Most Americans who are diagnosed have type 2. It often goes undiagnosed because many of its symptoms seem so harmless.

Pre-diabetes is a condition where a patients blood glucose levels are unusually elevated but not high enough to be diagnosed as type 2. This condition is also called impaired glucose tolerance or insulin resistance. The cells of the body become more insulin resistant or the correct amount of insulin is not being manufactured by the pancreas. Pre-diabetes is also called impaired glucose (IFG) or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) dependant on which test is used for diagnosis. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services has recently estimated that pre-diabetes is becoming more prevalent in the U.S.

Health care professionals use a Fasting Plasma Glucose Test (FPG) or an Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) in their efforts to determine whether a patient has pre-diabetes or diabetes. With the FPG test, a fasting blood glucose level in the 100 and 125 mg/dl range indicates Using the OGTT test, a patient's blood glucose level is measured after drinking a liquid rich in glucose and a fasting period.

Diabetes screening is recommended for many people at various stages of life, and for those with any of several risk factors. But keeping your blood sugar under control now can help reduce the risk of health problems from diabetes later. Serious long-term complications cardiovascular disease (doubled risk), chronic renal failure (diabetic nephropathy is the main cause of dialysis in developed world adults), retinal damage (which can lead to blindness and is the most significant cause of adult blindness in the non-elderly in the developed world), nerve damage (of several kinds), and micro vascular damage, which may cause erectile dysfunction (impotence) and poor healing.

Adequate treatment of diabetes, as well as increased emphasis on blood pressure control and lifestyle factors (such as not smoking and keeping a healthy body weight), may improve the risk profile of most of its complications.

Diabetes can lead to serious complications and premature death, but steps can be taken to control the disease and lower the risk of complications. Diabetes affects over Americans. It is widely recognized as one of the leading causes of death and disability in the United States. It is associated with long-term complications that affect almost every part of the body.

Diabetes can lead to serious health problems and early death, but those with diabetes can take action to manage the condition and reduce the risk of these complications. Diabetes is a disease that affects over 21 million in the U.S. Diabetes of the leading causes of early death and disability as well. Diabetes is linked to life long complications that damage almost every part of the human anatomy. It's very serious, but it is manageable.
