Hypoglycemia in Diabetes: Pathophysiology, Prevalence, and Prevention: summary, description and annotation

We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Hypoglycemia in Diabetes: Pathophysiology, Prevalence, and Prevention" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.

Iatrogenic hypoglycemia, or low blood glucose caused by medical treatment, is a challenge facing people with diabetes and their health care providers. Philip E. Cryer, MDa Banting Medal recipient and the Irene E. & Michael M. Karl Professor of Endocrinology and Metabolism at Washington University in St. Louisexamines this persistent problem from a pathophysiological perspective.
Intended for diabetes researchers and medical professionals who work closely with patients with diabetes, Hypoglycemia in Diabetes provides direct insight into the causes and consequences of this serious medical condition from one of the foremost experts in the field. Based on the latest developments and trends in the scientific and medical literature, readers are given the details they need in order to be informed about how to identify, prevent, and treat this unfortunate circumstance of the diabetes care regimen.
The second edition contains updated and expanded references from the latest research. The discussion of iatrogenic hypoglycemia has been expanded throughout to cover these new findings and to keep the discussion of the topic relevant.

PREFACE TO THE SECOND EDITION

Diabetes mellitus is an increasingly common disease. It is estimated that the prevalence of diabetes will rise from 285 million people in the year 2010 to 438 million people worldwide by the year 2030 (International Diabetes Foundation, 2009) and that the total diabetes prevalence (diagnosed and undiagnosed cases) will increase from 14% in 2010 to 25%28% of the United States population by 2050 (Boyle et al. 2010). The common forms of the disease are type 1 diabetes mellitus, the result of absolute insulin deficiency from its clinical onset, and type 2 diabetes mellitus, the result of relative insulin deficiency in the setting of insulin resistance early in its course and absolute insulin deficiency later. Approximately 95% of affected people have type 2 diabetes.

Over time, diabetes can cause unique microvascular complicationsretinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathyand a substantially increased risk for macrovascular atherosclerotic complicationsmyocardial infarction, cerebrovascular accidents, and peripheral vascular disease. These long-term complications are undoubtedly multifactorial in origin, but it is now well established, at least for microvascular disease, that hyperglycemia is one important factor. Maintenance of plasma glucose concentrations closer to the nondiabetic range prevents or delays microvascular complications in type 1 diabetes (Diabetes Control and Complications Trial Research Group [DCCT] 1993; Diabetes Control and Complications Trial/Epidemiology of Diabetes Interventions and Complications Research Group [DCCT/EDIC] 2000) and in type 2 diabetes (U.K. Prospective Diabetes Study Group [UKPDS] 1998a, 1998b). It may reduce macrovascular complications in type 1 diabetes (DCCT/EDIC 2005; Polak et al. 2011) and type 2 diabetes (Holman et al. 2008). Indeed, it is conceivable that maintenance of normal plasma glucose concentrations over a lifetime of diabetes would eliminate the microvascular complications (DCCT 1995) and reduce the risk of macrovascular disease substantially (Stettler et al. 2006).

Unfortunately, with current treatment regimens, it is not possible to maintain euglycemia over a lifetime of diabetes in the vast majority of people with diabetes because of the barrier of iatrogenic (treatment-induced) hypoglycemia (Cryer 1997, 2004, 2008, 2010, 2011a). Pending the prevention and cure of diabetes, maintenance of euglycemia without hypoglycemia will require new treatment methods that provide plasma glucoseregulated insulin replacement or secretion, i.e. closed-loop insulin replacement, transplantation of -cell containing tissue or expansion of -cell mass.

The biochemistry, physiology, and pathophysiology of intermediary metabolism, with a focus on glucoregulation and hypoglycemia, have been reviewed (Cryer 1997, 2001, 2004, 2008, 2010, 2011a), and the history of hypoglycemia in the 20th century has been summarized (Cryer 1997). The impact of hypoglycemia was first documented in 1921 when a dog convulsed and then died after injection of extracted insulin; hypoglycemia was recognized to be a complication of insulin treatment of diabetes shortly thereafter (Bliss 1992).
