Diabetes Mellitus

diabetes mellitus

Diabetes mellitus (DM) or diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic disorders , which affects different organs and tissues is lifelong and is characterized by increased levels of blood glucose: hyperglycaemia. It is caused by various conditions, including low production of the hormone insulin secreted by pancreatic β cells, or by its improper use by the body, that will affect the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins. The main symptoms of diabetes mellitus are excessive emission of urine (polyuria), increased the need abnormal eating (polyphagia), increased thirst (polydipsia), and weight loss for no apparent reason. The World Health recognizes three forms of diabetes mellitus: type 1, type 2 and gestational diabetes (occurs during pregnancy), each with different reasons and with different influence. Several pathological processes are involved in the development of diabetes, an autoimmune impart a characteristic of type 1 diabetes mellitus, hereditary and body resistance to insulin action, as in type 2 DM. By 2000, it was estimated that about 171 million people had diabetes in the world and will reach 370 million in 2030. This condition causes a variety of complications, often damaging the eyes, kidneys, nerves and blood vessels. Acute complications (hypoglycemia, ketoacidosis, nonketotic hyperosmolar coma) result from inadequate control of the disease while chronic complications (cardiovascular, nephropathy, retinopathy, neuropathy and microvascular damage) are caused by disease progression. The World Diabetes Day is celebrated on 14 November.

symptoms

In the event that has not yet been diagnosed with DM or started your treatment, or who is not well treated, they may find the following signs (derived from an excess of glucose in blood, either point or continuous):Signs and symptoms most common:Polyuria, polydipsia and polyphagia.Weight loss despite polyphagia.Fatigue or tiredness.Changes in visual acuity.Less common signs and symptoms:Vaginitis in women, balanitis in men.Appearance of glucose in the urine or urine with a sweet taste.Absence of menstruation in women.Appearance of impotence in men.Abdominal pain.Tingling or numbness in hands and feet, dry skin, sores or wounds that heal slowly.Weakness.Irritability.Mood swings.Nausea and vomiting.Breath smells like apples.

Rmedy

Diabetes is an excess of sugar in the blood. It occurs when the pancreas does not produce the hormone insulin or does so insufficiently Without enough insulin, or with little of it, the blood sugar rises causing frequent urination, constant thirst, weakness, fatigue, and cardiovascular and renal damage.There are two main types of diabetes. The more serious but less common is the type I, which affects children and sometimes young adults. In these cases, affected people must inject insulin because their pancreas does not produce.

How is influenza spread?
From person to person through secretions from the nose and mouth (coughing, sneezing, talking, singing) or by direct contact (hands, when the patient does not wash them, kissing). It is highly infectious (3-7 days after onset of symptoms) and more risky when it occurs indoors (rooms, kindergartens, schools, nursing homes, shelters, etc.). It is estimated that an epidemic before it could travel the world in a period of 3 to 6 months.

genital herpes

Genital herpes is a sexually transmitted disease (STD) caused by herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) and type 2 (HSV-2). Most genital herpes is caused by HSV-2 type. Most people infected with HSV-1 or HSV-2 have no signs or symptoms of infection or have minimal symptoms. When signs are manifested, usually do so in the form of one or more blisters on the genitals or rectum or around them. The blisters break, forming painful ulcers (sores) that may take two to four weeks to heal the first time they occur. Typically, another outbreak can appear weeks or months after the first, but almost always is less severe and of shorter duration. Although the infection can stay indefinitely in the body, the number of outbreaks tends to decrease as they age. Results from a nationally representative study show that genital herpes is of frequent occurrence in the United States. Nationwide, at least 45 million people 12 and older or one in five adolescents and adults, have had HSV infection. Over the last decade, the percentage of Americans with genital herpes infection has decreased. Genital infection with HSV-2 is more common in women (approximately one in four women) than men (approximately one in eight men). This may be because it is more likely to occur from male to female transmission than female to male transmission. HSV-1 and HSV-2 can be found in the wounds caused by viruses and released from the same, but between virus outbreak and the outbreak may also be released through the skin that has no sores. Generally, a person can only become infected with HSV-2 during sexual contact with someone who has a genital HSV-2. Transmission can occur from an infected partner who does not have a visible sore and may not know they are infected. HSV-1 can cause genital herpes, but more commonly causes infections of the mouth and lips, also called "fever blisters." The HSV-1 infection of the genitals can be caused by oral-genital or genital-genital contact with someone who has HSV-1. Outbreaks of genital HSV-1 recur less regularly than outbreaks of genital HSV-2. Most people infected with HSV-2 are not aware of their infection. However, if signs and symptoms during the first outbreak can be quite pronounced. The first outbreak usually occurs within two weeks following the transmission of the virus and the sores typically heal within two to four weeks. Other signs and symptoms during the primary episode may include a second series of sores and flu-like symptoms, including fever and swollen glands. However, most people with HSV-2 infection never have sores, or they may have very mild signs that go unnoticed or are mistaken for insect bites or other skin conditions. Most people who have been diagnosed with a first case of genital herpes can expect to have several (typically four or five) outbreaks (symptomatic recurrences) within a period of one year. Usually, these recurrences reduce in frequency as time passes. It is possible that the person to realize he had a case of genital herpes acquired years after infection. There is no treatment that can cure herpes, but antiviral medications can shorten and prevent outbreaks during the time the person takes drugs. Additionally, therapy daily surprise symptomatic herpes can reduce the possibility of transmission to sexual partners of infected persons.
