Résumé |
Glucose disorders are the most common endocrine condition in the primary care setting. The conditions overlap and are better viewed as a spectrum rather than discrete entities. Multiple treatment agents are now available for diabetes mellitus which include long-acting and short-acting insulins and medications targeting the various pathways of diabetes including liver gluconeogenesis, increasing peripheral insulin sensitivity, stimulating pancreatic insulin production, eliminating glucose renally, decreasing carbohydrate gastrointestinal absorption, and targeting the body’s incretin system. Various endocrine conditions can cause secondary hyperglycemia or hypoglycemia. Medications and physiologic stress can affect glucose levels. Genetic syndromes causing enzyme deficiencies underlie a small portion of glucose disorders.
