Question
Chapter 11, Problem 38RA
Summary Introduction
To review:
The effect on insulin release, when a person has 50% increase in insulin sensitivity.Â
Introduction:
The pancreas is described as a heterocrine organ, due to its endocrine as well as exocrine properties. It releases two hormones that play role in the regulation of the blood glucose levels. The insulin hormone is released from the beta islets of Langerhans while the glucagon hormone is secreted from the alpha cells.

In addition to symptoms of diabetes, all the following are criteria recommended by the American Diabetes Association for use in the
diagnosis of Diabetes Mellitus EXCEPT:
O Random plasma glucose concentration > 180 mg/dL.
O Fasting plasma glucose > 126 mg/dL.
O 2-Hour glucose > 200 mg/dL during a 2 hour post prandial glucose test
O Hemoglobin A1C > 6.5%
Using the PICO example “In diabetic males over 45, will a vegan diet or vegetarian diet improve insulin levels?”, what is the outcome to be measured?
Sammy is a student with a diagonis of Type 1 Diabetes who comes to your office and has a BG of 200. He is going to eat 45 grams of carbs for lunch. Target BG is 150, ISF=1unit decreases bg by 100mg/dl, Insulin carb ratio + 1 unit per 20 gms carb. How much insulin do you give Sammy and when do you give it to him? Sammy has a basal rate of 0.20u/hr. His last bolus of insulin was over 4hrs ago

ANSWER SHOULD INCLUDE: Type 1 - causes ,incidence Type 2 - cause, incidence Lack of insulin to blood glucose levels rise ( hyperglycaemia e.g. 20mmol/or more); glucose can not move into cells to provide energy for metabolic reactions. Link to symptoms, e.g. tiredness, hunger. Glucose excreted in urine ( exceeds renal threshold). Link to polyuria,thirst,dehydration - protein broken down to form more glucose (gluconeogenesis): provides energy to cells. -Link Fats broken down to FFA and glycerol for glucose production (gluconeogenesis).
