Clinical Manifestations
Pathophysiology
Diagnosis
Treatment
Miscellaneous
100

This clinical manifestation occurs due to the overactivity of the kidneys to lower blood sugar.

Frequent Urination
100

Abnormalities in the secretion or production of this hormone is associated with the disease.

Insulin

100

This blood test measures for glucose levels in the blood with measures greater than 200 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) indicating diabetes. 

Random blood sugar test

100
In one form of this disease, treatment includes doses of this specific hormone to regulate blood sugar several times a day. 

Insulin

100

True or false: This disease is one of the top 10 leading causes of death in the United States. 

True, it is the 8th leading cause of death. 

200

The kidneys of an individual with high blood sugar produce and excrete more urine and fluids. This clinical manifestation occurs in response to excess fluid loss.

Polydipsia (Excessive thirst)

200

This endocrine gland is affected by the autoimmune effects of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, reducing or ceasing insulin production.

Pancreas

200

This blood test requires a blood sample after you haven't eaten anything the night before and measures for glucose levels in the blood with measures greater than 126 milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL) indicating diabetes.

Fasting blood sugar test
200

In another form of this disease, these specific lifestyle choices are recommended as treatment to maintain blood sugar. 

Regular exercise, balanced diet

200

Diagnosis of this disease puts individuals at higher risk of developing these other types of issues. 

Cardiovascular issues

300

This clinical manifestation occurs when blood sugar levels are too high, and the body does not process the sugar (glucose) as energy.

Fatigue/Tiredness

300

Elevated blood glucose levels resulting in abnormalities in insulin secretion, production or both. 

Hyperglycemia

300

This blood test measures the percentage of blood sugar attached to hemoglobin, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells (>6.5% indicates diabetes).

A1C

300

The necessary hormone is most often administered through this route several times a day in type I. 

Injection

300

This disease is most prevalent among these two minority groups in the United States.

African American and Hispanic populations

400

This clinical manifestation is a result of high blood sugar causing stiff blood vessels, microvascular dysfunction and slower circulation, reducing the amount of oxygen reaching the body tissues.

Delayed wound healing

400

The pathophysiology of this type is characterized by T-cell-mediated destruction of pancreatic β-cells, resulting in insulin deficiency.

Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

400

This test requires overnight fasting, then blood sugar level is measured. Then you drink a sugary liquid, and blood sugar levels are tested regularly for the next two hours (200 mg/dL indicates diabetes).

Glucose tolerance test
400

True or false: It is possible to cure this disease. 

False: this is a chronic disease

400

Reduced blood flow from this disease causes slow wound heal. In severe cases, this can result in this surgical procedure of lower limbs. 

Amputation

500

This clinical manifestation is a result of damage to the blood vessels that supply nerves with blood and nutrients, causing nerves to become damaged or die. 

Neuropathy

500

The pathophysiology of this type is characterized by insulin resistance and β-cell dysfunction leading to decreased response or sensitivity of cells in the peripheral tissues, in particular the muscle, liver, and adipose tissue toward insulin.

Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus

500

The presence of this energy-byproduct substance in a urine sample indicates Type 1 Diabetes.

Ketones

500

A side effect of the medication is low blood sugar, which is also known in medical terms as...

hypoglycemia

500
