\"Diabetes<\/span><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>
Diabetes mellitus<\/h2>\n
Diabetes, also known as “sugar disease”, is characterized by elevated blood sugar levels. Sugar (glucose) is the most important fuel for our cells, with our brain alone consuming around 20% of the glucose intake. However, if the body is unable to transport sugar from the blood into the cells, blood sugar levels rise, leading to diabetes mellitus.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus<\/h3><\/div>
The most common form of diabetes is Type 2 diabetes mellitus. It was previously referred to as “age-related diabetes”, but this is misleading, as it can occur at any age, including in children and young adults. There is a strong genetic component, and it is frequently associated with overweight and obesity. The number of people affected by Type 2 diabetes is rising globally, including in Austria.<\/p>\n
The treatment of diabetes has improved significantly in recent years. In addition to traditional diabetes medications (oral tablets), newer diabetes drugs are available, which not only lower blood sugar levels but also provide additional health benefits. For example, the right choice of medication can positively impact conditions such as obesity, heart failure, coronary artery disease (stents, bypass surgery), high blood pressure, and kidney disease.<\/p>\n
The foundation of good diabetes management is a healthy diet and an active lifestyle. Every diabetes patient has the opportunity to take control of their condition through lifestyle choices.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus<\/h3><\/div>
In Type 1 diabetes mellitus, the pancreas is destroyed by antibodies produced by the body’s own immune system. This is known as an autoimmune disease. It typically develops in childhood or adolescence, although a slightly different form\u2014called LADA (Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults)\u2014can also occur in adults. As a result, blood glucose levels rise, and the body’s cells lack energy.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Gestational Diabetes (Pregnancy Diabetes)<\/h2>\n
As part of the Mother-Child Health Passport program, a glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is recommended between the 24th and 28th week of pregnancy to screen for gestational diabetes. This involves drinking a glucose solution followed by blood sugar measurements from a vein.<\/p>\n
If one of these values is elevated, gestational diabetes (GDM) is diagnosed. Maintaining near-normal blood sugar levels is essential for the healthy development of the unborn child, so regular home monitoring of blood sugar levels is necessary. In most cases, blood sugar can be regulated through diet, but if not, treatment is recommended.<\/p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
Other Forms of Diabetes<\/h2>\n
In addition to the more common types, there are rarer forms of diabetes, including:<\/p>\n<\/div>
  • <\/i><\/span>
    \n
    MODY (Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
  • <\/i><\/span>
    \n
    Transplant-related diabetes<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
  • <\/i><\/span>
    \n
    LADA (Late Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults)<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul>
    We also provide specialized care for these forms of diabetes at our diabetes-practice in Vienna.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
    Diabetes-Related Complications<\/h2>\n
    High blood sugar levels damage blood vessels and can lead to serious complications, including:<\/p>\n<\/div>
    • <\/i><\/span>
      \n
      Heart attacks<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>
      \n
      Strokes<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>
      \n
      Kidney damage<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>
      \n
      Nerve damage<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>
      \n
      Vision problems<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li>
    • <\/i><\/span>
      \n
      Diabetic coma<\/p>\n<\/div><\/li><\/ul>
      Therefore, it is essential to undergo regular health check-ups to detect diabetes early. By doing so, you can reduce your risk of diabetes-related complications, and your internist can detect underlying conditions at an early stage.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"100-width.php","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-1119","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nEndokrinologe
