Document Summary
20 to 40 times higher than that of the general population: some specific human leukocyte antigens are thought to decrease the risk of developing type 1 diabetes including hla-dr2. Insulin gene which regulates beta cell replication and function on chromosome 11 which is worth mentioning: many polymorphisms of multiple genes that have been identified as influencing the risk of type. Idiopathic type 1b: no evidence of autoimmunity etiology is unknown, account for <10% of those with t1dm, strong genetic component, typically, african or asian descent, varying degrees of insulin deficiency episodic ketoacidosis. Etiology type 2 dm: a heterogeneous condition characterized by hyperglycemia, insulin resistance and relative impairment in insulin secretion, can range from predominant insulin resistance with relative insulin deficiency to a predominant secretory defect with insulin resistance. Important to understand the underlying etiology to understand how the disease manifests and the corresponding management. Increases glucose transport into skeletal muscle and adipose tissue.
