What is type 2 DM?
Autor: H KRespuesta:
Characterized by chronic hyperglycemia, associated w/micro and macrovascular complications, generally arises from insulin resistance and b-cell dysfunction (both). Non-insulin dependent DM (not insulin dependent for life, age 30+ at dx, usually obese, few classic symptoms, ketoacidosis is rare) Usually at beginning we have insulin resistance and deficit of insulin, then we get combination of impaired insulin secretion and insulin resistance.
