Full textOBJECTIVES: In Australia, diabetes causes significant morbidity and mortality. Whilst the need to prevent diabetes and its complications has been widely recognised, the capacity of health care systems - which organise diabetes care - to facilitate prevention has not been fully established. METHODS: A series of seven population-based case-control studies were used to examine the effectiveness of the Australian health care system and its capacity to manage diabetes. Six of the studies compared the patterns of care of patients who had developed advanced diabetes complications in 2000 (cases), to similar patients who remained free of the condition (controls) across Australia and for various risk groups. A secondary study investigated the role of treating GPs in the development of the outcome. RESULTS: A strong relationship between the patterns of care and the development of advanced diabetes complications was found and is described in Chapter 4. In Chapter 5, this same relationship was investigated for each Australian state and territory, and similar findings were made. The study in Chapter 6 investigated whether late diagnosis or the patterns of care was the stronger risk factor for advanced diabetes complications, finding that the greatest risk was associated with the latter. In Chapter 7 the influence of medical care during the pre-diagnosis period was explored, and a strong relationship between care obtained in this period and the development of advanced complications was found. In Chapter 8, which investigated the role of socio-economic status in the development of advanced complications, found that the risk of advanced diabetes complications was higher in low socio-economic groups. Chapter 9 investigated geographic isolation and the development of advanced diabetes complications and found that the risk of advanced complications was higher in geographically isolated populations. Finally, Chapter 10, which utilised a provider database, found that some GP characteristics were associated with the development of advanced diabetes complications in patients. CONCLUSION: A number of major risk factors for the development of advanced complications in Australia was found. These related to poorer diabetes management, later diagnosis, low socioeconomic status and geographic isolation. Strategies must be devised to promote effective diabetes management and the early diagnosis of diabetes across the Australian population.

Full textSe ha observado que los patrones dietéticos se asocian de manera distinta al riesgo de desarrollar síndrome metabólico (SM) y la diabetes tipo 2 (DT2). Con el objetivo de entender mejor los distintos efectos de los patrones dietéticos sobre el riesgo de desarrollar estas enfermedades, es importante analizar el papel que juegan determinados grupos de alimentos sobre el riesgo de desarrollar el SM y la DT2. El principal objetivo de la presente tesis ha sido evaluar la asociación entre el consumo de carne, productos lácteos y el riesgo de incidencia SM o alguno de sus componentes, así como evaluar la asociación entre el consumo de legumbres y el riesgo de desarrollar DT2. Los resultados mostraron una asociación inversa no significativa entre el consumo total de productos lácteos y el riesgo de incidencia de SM. El consumo de productos lácteos bajos en grasa, leche desnatada y yogur (total, bajo en grasa y entero) se asoció a un menor riesgo de SM y algunos de sus componentes. Contrariamente, el consumo de queso se asoció a un mayor riesgo. Del mismo modo, el consumo de carne total también se asoció con el riesgo de padecer SM y alguno de sus componentes. Mientras que la carne roja y la carne roja procesada se asociaron a un mayor riesgo de SM, el consumo de carne blanca se asoció a un menor riesgo. Finalmente, el consumo de legumbres totales, y en particular las lentejas, se asoció a un mejor riesgo de incidencia de DT2. En conclusión, un consumo elevado de productos lácteos bajos en grasa y yogur (independientemente del contenido en grasa), conjuntamente con consumo preferente de carnes blancas en lugar de carnes rojas o carnes rojas procesadas, y una alta frecuencia de legumbres, podría ser beneficioso para la prevención del SM y la DT2 en individuos Mediterráneos con alto riesgo cardiovascular.
It has been shown that dietary patterns are differently associated with the risk of metabolic syndrome (MetS) and type 2 diabetes (T2D). Whereas the Western diet seems to increase the risk of these chronic diseases, plant-based diets, such as the Mediterranean Diet (MedDiet), seem to decrease the risk. In order to better understand the different effects on disease risk among dietary patterns, it is important to analyze the role that specific food groups play on the risk of developing MetS and T2D. The main aim of the present dissertation was to evaluate the association between the consumption of meat and dairy products with the risk of MetS or the incidence of some of its individual components, as well as to assess the association between legumes consumption and T2D development risk. The results showed a non-significant inverse association between total dairy consumption and the risk of MetS incidence. The consumption of low-fat dairy products, low-fat milk and yogurt (total, low-fat and whole-fat yogurt) was associated with a lower risk of MetS and some of its individual components. Contrary, the consumption of cheese was positively associated with the MetS risk. Likewise, total meat intake was also associated with the risk of MetS and the development of some of its components. Whereas red meat and processed red meat were associated with a higher risk of MetS, poultry was associated with a lower risk. Finally, total legume consumption, particularly lentils, was associated with a lower risk of T2D incidence. In conclusion, high consumption of low-fat dairy products and yogurt (regardless the fat content), together with the preference for poultry rather than red meat or processed red meat, and high frequency consumption of legumes, would be beneficial for the prevention of MetS and T2D among Mediterranean individuals at high CVD risk.

Full textLa presente tesis doctoral se centra en el estudio de los factores de riesgo y el uso de la vitamina D como estrategia de prevención de la diabetes mellitus gestacional (DMG) en una población de alto riesgo participantes en el estudio DALI (Intervención de estilo de vida y vitamina D para la prevención de DMG) En el primer artículo, se describe el ensayo controlado aleatorizado DALI de vitamina D para la prevención de DMG. El ensayo controlado aleatorizado DALI evaluó la suplementación de vitamina D con 1600 UI/día, (+/- intervención combinada de estilo de vida), en una población de alto riesgo de DMG, desde <20 semanas de gestación hasta el parto. Los resultados primarios fueron las medidas subrogadas de DMG: glucemia plasmática en ayunas (GPA), HOMA-IR y aumento de peso intragestación. Hubo una pequeña mejoría en la GPA (-0,14 mmol/l; IC 95%: -0,28, -0,00) a las 35-37 semanas de gestación, pero no se observó mejora en ningún resultado primario a las 24-28 semanas. Un análisis post hoc identificó como variables independientes para la suficiencia de vitamina D: la etnia europea (OR 19,84, CI95 5,87-67,08), la estación del año de la extracción (OR verano vs. primavera 17,0, IC 95 1,84-157,5, ns para otras estaciones) y la toma de vitaminas (OR 11,1, IC 95 3,01-41,2). En el segundo artículo se describen los factores de riesgo de hiperglucemia gestacional (HG) en la población DALI, en diferentes periodos de la gestación y puntos de la sobrecarga oral de glucosa (SOG). Realizamos un sub-análisis observacional del estudio DALI, que incluyó a 971 mujeres, que se sometieron a una SOG a las <20, 24-28 y 35-37 semanas (criterios IADPSG/WHO2013). Una regresión logística multivariante seleccionó variables independientes (incluyendo características basales maternas y de la gestación actual) para HG. Las características clínicas asociadas de forma independiente con HG fueron: <20 semanas, intolerancia a la glucosa previa (odds ratio (OR): 3,11; IC 95%: 1,41-6,85), DMG previa (OR: 2,22; IC 95%: 1,20-4,11), circunferencia cervical (CC) (OR: 1,58; IC 95%: 1,06–2,36 para el tercil superior), frecuencia cardíaca en reposo (FCR, OR: 1,99; IC 95%: 1,31–3,00 para el tercil superior) y centro de reclutamiento; a las 24-28 semanas, mortinato previo (OR: 2,92; IC 95%: 1,18-7,22), FCR (OR: 3,32; IC 95%: 1,70-6,49 para el tercil superior) y centro de reclutamiento; a las 35-37 semanas, talla materna (OR: 0,41; IC 95%: 0,20-0,87 para el tercil superior). Las características clínicas asociadas de forma independiente con DMG/diabetes franca, diferían según el punto de tiempo de la SOG (por ejemplo, la CC se asoció con glucosa alterada en ayunas a <20 semanas, mientras que la FCR se asoció con la glucosa postsobrecarga a <20 semanas). En conclusión, en mujeres con sobrepeso / obesidad participantes en el estudio DALI, la suplementación con vitamina D no mejoró sustancialmente las medidas subrogadas de DMG definidas como resultados primarios (GPA, HOMA-IR, aumento de peso intragestación). Las concentraciones promedio de vitamina D al inicio del estudio fueron más altas de lo esperado y los principales predictores de la suficiencia de vitamina D fueron la etnia europea y la ingesta de multivitaminas. En esta población, los factores de riesgo de HG diferían según el período de la gestación y el punto de la SOG, y podrían ayudar a definir los criterios para la detección selectiva o los participantes de ensayos de prevención.
The present doctoral thesis focuses on the study of risk factors and the use of vitamin D as a prevention strategy for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in a high-risk population (pregnant overweight/obese women) enrolled in the DALI (Vitamin D And Lifestyle Intervention for GDM prevention) study. In the first article, the DALI vitamin D randomized controlled trial for GDM prevention is reported. The DALI vitamin D randomized controlled trial for GDM prevention tested vitamin D supplementation with 1600 IU/day, with or without combined lifestyle intervention in a high-risk population for GDM, starting at <20 weeks’ gestation until delivery. The primary study outcomes were the GDM surrogates, fasting plasma glucose (FPG), HOMA-IR and gestational weight gain (GWG). There was a small improvement in FPG (-0.14 mmol/l; 95%CI -0.28, -0.00) at 35-37 weeks’ gestation, but no improvement in any primary outcome was observed at 24-28 weeks’ gestation, when testing for GDM usually takes place. A post hoc analysis identified as independent variables for vitamin D sufficiency: European ethnicity (OR 19.84, CI95 5.87-67.08), season of measurement (OR summer vs. spring 17.0, CI 95 1.84-157.5, ns for other seasons) and taking vitamins (OR 11.1, CI 95 3.01-41.2). In the second article risk factors for hyperglycemia in pregnancy (HiP) in the DALI population, at different pregnancy periods and oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) time points are described. We conducted an observational sub-analysis of the DALI study, including 971 women, who underwent an OGTT at <20, 24–28 and 35–37 weeks (IADPSG/WHO2013 criteria). A multivariate logistic regression selected independent variables (including baseline maternal and current pregnancy characteristics) for HiP. Clinical characteristics independently associated with HiP were: at <20 weeks, previous abnormal glucose tolerance (odds ratio (OR): 3.11; 95%CI: 1.41–6.85), previous GDM (OR: 2.22; 95%CI: 1.20–4.11), neck circumference (NC) (OR: 1.58; 95%CI: 1.06–2.36 for the upper tertile), resting heart rate (RHR, OR: 1.99; 95%CI: 1.31–3.00 for the upper tertile) and recruitment site; at 24–28 weeks, previous stillbirth (OR: 2.92; 95%CI: 1.18-7.22), RHR (OR: 3.32; 95%CI: 1.70-6.49 for the upper tertile) and recruitment site; at 35–37 weeks, maternal height (OR: 0.41; 95%CI: 0.20–0.87 for upper tertile). Clinical characteristics independently associated with GDM/overt diabetes differed by OGTT time point (for example, NC was associated with abnormal fasting glucose at <20 weeks, while RHR was associated with post-challenge glucose at <20 weeks and with both, fasting and post-challenge glucose at 24-28 weeks). In conclusion, in overweight/obese women enrolled in the DALI study, vitamin D supplementation did not substantially improve surrogate GDM measurements defined as primary outcomes (FPG, HOMA-IR, GWG) and did not modify secondary outcomes. Average vitamin D concentrations at baseline were higher than expected and major vitamin D sufficiency predictors were European ethnicity and multivitamin intake. In this population, risk factors for HiP differed by pregnancy period and OGTT time point and could assist in defining criteria for selective screening or participants of prevention trials.

Full textLe diabète pré-gestationnel et le diabète de gestation (DG) augmentent le risque dedéveloppement d'une future résistance à l'insuline et de diabète de type 2 autant pourla mère que pour l'enfant. Le stress oxydatif est un facteur potentiel impliqué dans ledéséquilibre du glucose sanguin associé au diabète de type 2 et au syndromemétabolique. La présente thèse est une étude sectionnelle croisée, ayant pour but demesurer des marqueurs du stress oxidatif, notamment la concentration des oxystérolsgénérés par les radicaux libres dans le sérum d'adolescentes, nées de mères ayantprésenté ou non un diabète de gestation. Nos résultats montrent des concentrationsd'oxystérols (7P-hydroxycholesterol) plus élevées dans le sérum de filles issues degestations diabétiques à comparer aux filles de mères n'ayant pas eu de DG.Cependant, la différence entre les deux groupes n'était pas statistiquementsignificative après un ajustement au cholestérol total. La concentration d'oxystérolsétait significativement corrélée aux marqueurs d'obésité, notamment la circonférencede la taille et l'index de masse corporelle, possiblement à l'origine de la tendance desoxystérols à être plus élevés dans le cas des adolescentes issues de gestationsdiabétiques.

O diabetes mellitus tipo 2 à uma doenÃa de importÃncia crescente na saÃde pÃblica, jà que sua incidÃncia e prevalÃncia tÃm avanÃado de forma assustadora, sendo causada por uma combinaÃÃo de fatores genÃticos e estilo de vida. Em face disso, a saÃde pÃblica indica a prevenÃÃo primÃria para identificar os fatores de risco para DM2 e traÃar estratÃgias com vistas a evitar a exposiÃÃo ao risco, retardando ou impedindo o aparecimento da doenÃa. Objetivou-se avaliar o risco para o desenvolvimento do DM2 entre adultos de Itapipoca-CE. Trata-se de pesquisa quantitativa, com delineamento transversal e observacional, realizada no perÃodo de janeiro a marÃo de 2010, com 419 usuÃrios da EstratÃgia SaÃde da FamÃlia do municÃpio de Itapipoca-CE, com idades entre 20 e 59 anos. Para a coleta de dados aplicou-se um formulÃrio no qual se registraram dados sociodemogrÃficos e clÃnicos e o Finnish Diabetes Risk Score. Os dados foram armazenados no Excel, sendo processados no Statistical Package for Science Social versÃo 18.0. O estudo foi aprovado pelo Comità de Ãtica em Pesquisa da Universidade Federal do Cearà sob protocolo 346/09. Dos 419 usuÃrios participantes, 88,1% eram do sexo feminino; a mÃdia de idade foi de 37 anos; 60,4% eram casados ou mantinham uniÃo estÃvel; 39,4% cursaram atà o ensino fundamental incompleto e 58,2% pertenciam Ãs classes econÃmicas D/E. Em relaÃÃo aos fatores de risco para DM2, 25,3% tinham idade ≥ 45 anos; 59,7% estavam com excesso de peso; 84% foram classificados em risco cardiovascular; 83,3% eram sedentÃrios; 53,7% relataram nÃo comer frutas e/ou verduras diariamente; 12,9% tomavam anti-hipertensivos; 5,3% mencionaram histÃria prÃvia de glicose alta e 47% histÃria familiar de DM2. Segundo observou-se, 5,2% da amostra foram classificados com hipertensÃo e apenas 0,7% com provÃvel diabetes. Quanto ao grau de risco para DM2, 24,6% estavam em baixo risco; 63% em risco moderado e 11,7% em alto risco. Entre os participantes com alto risco, 12,0% eram homens; 30,2% tinham idades ≥ 45 anos; 37,4 estavam com excesso de peso; 21,1% estavam em risco cardiovascular aumentado; 12,9% eram sedentÃrios; 14,7% nÃo comiam frutas/verduras diariamente; 31,5% tomavam anti-hipertensivos; 81,8% relataram histÃria de glicose alta e 23,9% histÃria familiar de DM2. Esse estudo abre portas para uma posterior pesquisa de intervenÃÃo no municÃpio, na qual os indivÃduos com alto risco para DM2 seriam acompanhados pelos profissionais de saÃde da ESF e dos NÃcleos de Apoio à SaÃde da FamÃlia, com orientaÃÃes quanto Ãs mudanÃas no estilo de vida, e com intervenÃÃes nos fatores de risco potenciais encontrados, objetivando reduzir ou retardar o aparecimento da doenÃa.
The type 2 diabetes mellitus is a disease of increasing importance in public health, since its incidence and prevalence have dauntingly advanced, and has been caused by a combination of genetic factors and lifestyle. In this view, public health indicates primary prevention to identify risk factors for T2DM and strategize in order to avoid exposure to risk by delaying or preventing the onset of the disease. The objective was to evaluate the risk for the development of T2DM among adults in Itapipoca town-CearÃ. It is a quantitative research with cross-sectional observational study conducted from January to March 2010, with 419 users of EstratÃgia SaÃde da FamÃlia (ESF) in Itapipoca town-CearÃ, the participants aged between 20 and 59 years. To collect data we applied a form in which demographic and clinical data and Finnish Diabetes Risk Score were registered. The data were stored in Excel, and processed in the Statistical Package for Social Science 18.0. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Federal University of CearÃ, under protocol 346/09. Out of the 419 participating users, 88.1% were female and the average age was 37 years, 60.4% were married or had common law-marriage, 39.4% attended to part of primary school and 58.2% belonged to lower social classes. Regarding risk factors for T2DM, 25.3% were aged ≥ 45 years, 59.7% were overweight, 84% were classified as cardiovascular risk, 83.3% were sedentary, 53.7% reported not eating fruit and / or vegetables daily, 12.9% were taking anti-hypertensive, 5.3% reported a previous history of high glucose and 47% had family history of T2DM. As observed, 5.2% of the sample were classified as having hypertension, and only 0.7% with probable diabetes. As for the risk levels for T2DM, 24.6% were at low risk, 63% in moderate risk and 11.7% at high risk. Amongst participants with high risk, 12.0% were men, 30.2% were aged ≥ 45 years, 37.4% were overweight, 21.1% were at increased cardiovascular risk, 12.9% were sedentary; 14.7% did not eat fruit / vegetables daily, 31.5% took antihypertensive drugs, 81.8% reported a history of high glucose and 23.9% had family history of T2DM. This study opens doors for further intervention research in the town, in which individuals at high risk for T2DM would be accompanied by health professionals from the ESF and the NÃcleos de Apoio à SaÃde da FamÃlia. With the aim to reduce or delay the onset of the disease, the individuals would be given guidance as to changes in lifestyle and interventions on potential risk factors found.

Full textMethods: 94 women and 106 men with DM2 were assessed (June 2006-June 2008) for walking (2 weeks pedometer); AO (waist to hip ratio, WHR; waist circumference); glycemia (hemoglobin A1C, HbA1C); dyslipidemia therapy; and blood pressure (BP). Associations between walking and CVRFs were examined using multivariate regression, with and without adjustment for AO and potential confounders.
Results: A 1000 daily step increment in women was associated with a 0.13% (95% CI -0.25, -0.01) lower HbA1c, a 0.22 (95% CI: 0.63, 1.00) odds of dyslipidemia therapy, a -2.86 mmHg (95% CI: -4.32, -1.40) difference in systolic and a -1.66 mmHg (95% CI:-2.49, -0.82) difference in diastolic BP. With adjustment for AO, only associations with BP retained significance. The same step increment in men was associated with a 0.10% (95% CI: -0.22, -0.02) lower HbA1c and a -0.77 mm Hg difference in diastolic BP (95% CI: -1.55, 0.00). Adjustment for AO did not impact these associations.
Discussion: Greater understanding of the role of changes in AO may provide insight into sex differences in CVD risk in DM2.
Objectifs: Pour déterminer si les associations de la marche avec des facteurs de risque cardio-vasculaires choisis [CVRFs : glycemia, dyslipidemia, hypertension (BP)] sont atténués par l'obésité abdominale (OA) dans les patients avec DM2.
Méthodes: 94 femmes et 106 hommes avec DM2 ont été évalués (juin 2006-juin 2008) pour marcher (pedometer de 2 semaines); AO (taille à rapport de hanche, WHR ; circonférence de taille) ; glycemia (hémoglobine A1C, HbA1C) ; thérapie de dyslipidemia ; et tension artérielle (BP). Des associations entre marcher et CVRFs ont été examinées utilisant la régression multivariable, avec et sans l'ajustement pour l'ao et les confounders potentiels. fr
Résultats: Un incrément quotidien de l'étape 1000 chez les femmes a été associé à un 0.13% (ci de 95% -0.25, -0.01) HbA1c inférieur, un 0.22 (ci de 95% : 0.63, 1.00) chances de la thérapie de dyslipidemia, -2.86 mmHg (ci de 95% : -4.32,) différence -1.40 dans systolique et -1.66 mmHg (ci de 95% : - 2.49,) différence -0.82 à BP diastolique. Avec l'ajustement pour l'ao, seulement les associations avec BP ont maintenu la signification. Le même incrément d'étape chez les hommes a été associé à un 0.10% (ci de 95% : -0.22, -0.02) HbA1c inférieurs et -0.77 une différence du millimètre hectogrammes à BP diastolique (ci de 95% : -1.55, 0.00).

Full textTiivistelmä Metaboliseen oireyhtymään liittyy kohonnut riski sairastua sydän- ja verisuonisairauksiin kuten tyypin 2 diabetekseen ja sepelvaltimotautiin. Metabolisen oireyhtymän nopea esiintyvyyden kasvu on johtanut aktiiviseen uusien riskitekijöiden etsintään. Erityisen kiinnostuksen kohteena ovat olleet energia-aineenvaihduntaa säätelevät hormonit ja niihin liittyvät polymorfiat. Greliini on ensisijaisesti vatsalaukusta erittyvä hormoni, joka lisää voimakkaasti kasvuhormonin eritystä. Koeolosuhteissa sillä on myös vaikutuksia sokeriaineenvaihduntaan, verenpaineeseen, sydämen toimintaan, rasvakudoksen kehittymiseen ja tulehduksellisiin tapahtumiin, minkä perusteella on syytä epäillä greliinillä olevan osuutta metabolisen oireyhtymän ja siihen liittyvien sairauksien synnyssä. Tässä tutkimuksessa selviteltiin greliinin paastoplasmapitoisuuksien ja greliinipolymorfioiden (Arg51Gln ja Leu72Met) yhteyksiä metabolisen oireyhtymän piirteisiin, tyypin 2 diabetekseen ja kaulavaltimoiden ateroskleroosiin. Lisäksi tutkittiin greliinin ja insuliinin kaltaisen kasvutekijän (IGF-I) pitoisuuksien yhteyksiä. Tutkimusväestö koostui 1045 oululaisesta keski-ikäisestä OPERA tutkimukseen kuuluvasta henkilöstä. Tutkimuksessa matalien greliinipitoisuuksien havaittiin olevan yhteydessä useisiin metabolisen oireyhtymän piirteisiin: lihavuuteen, alhaisiin HDL kolesterolin pitoisuuksiin, korkeisiin insuliinipitoisuuksiin ja kohonneeseen verenpaineeseen. Matala greliinipitoisuus yhdistyi myös tyypin 2 diabeteksen ja verenpainetaudin esiintyvyyteen. Tutkituista tekijöistä IGF-I -pitoisuudet selittivät parhaiten greliinipitoisuuksia. Tämä käänteinen yhteys oli erityisen vahva tyypin 2 diabeetikoilla ja insuliiniresistenteillä henkilöillä viitaten greliinin ja IGF-I:n mahdollisen vuorovaikutukseen liittyvän näiden tilojen kehittymiseen. Lisäksi havaittiin, että greliinigeenin Gln51-alleelia kantavien henkilöiden greliinipitoisuudet olivat alhaiset, ja että he sairastivat enemmän diabetesta ja verenpainetautia kuin henkilöt jotka olivat homotsygootteja Arg51-alleelin suhteen. Greliinipitoisuudet ja C-reaktiivisen proteiinin pitoisuudet eivät korreloineet keskenään. Kaulavaltimon seinämäpaksuus korreloi positiivisesti greliinipitoisuuksien kanssa miehillä riippumatta perinteisistä ateroskleroosin riskitekijöistä. Tutkimustulokset tukevat olettamusta, että greliinillä saattaa olla merkitystä metabolisen oireyhtymän, tyypin 2 diabeteksen ja ateroskleroosin kehittymisessä. Jatkotutkimukset ovat tarpeen tämän yhteyden osoittamiseksi

Full textA Diabetes Mellitus (DM) é uma doença endócrina complexa, de elevada prevalência na clínica de pequenos animais, que se caracteriza por uma hiperglicémia crónica, devido a uma incapacidade absoluta ou relativa das células β do pâncreas produzirem e secretarem insulina e/ou de uma acção insuficiente de insulina nos tecidos, e que vai resultar em importantes alterações no metabolismo dos hidratos de carbono, dos lípidos e das proteínas, que podem ser fatais se não devidamente tratadas. O objectivo deste estudo foi avaliar os aspectos epidemiológicos e clínico-patológicos presentes numa amostra populacional de 23 canídeos e 12 felídeos diabéticos, a fim de identificar eventuais factores predisponentes e as alterações clínicas e laboratoriais mais frequentes. Foi ainda avaliada a evolução da doença e o aparecimento de complicações associadas, desde o momento do diagnóstico. O presente estudo demonstrou que a DM é uma doença que ocorre tipicamente em canídeos e felídeos adultos, de meia-idade a geriátricos, afectando sobretudo os canídeos fêmeas inteiras e os felídeos machos inteiros. As principais alterações clínico-laboratoriais observadas foram hiperglicémia (100% em ambas as espécies), glicosúria (100% em ambas as espécies), cetonúria (56% nos cães e 42% nos gatos), aumento da actividade das enzimas FAS (70,5% nos cães e 37,5% nos gatos), ALT (43% nos cães e 75% nos gatos) e AST (44% nos cães e 33% nos gatos); hipertrigliceridémia (100%) e hipercolesterolémia (43%), na espécie canídea; e hiperbilirrubinémia (60%), na espécie felídea. O conhecimento dos factores de risco e doenças associadas à DM, é de extrema importância, para se poder aplicar um protocolo terapêutico atempado e adequado, de forma a garantir um correcto maneio desta endocrinopatia, bem como prevenir a ocorrência de complicações clínicas. As principais complicações clínicas associadas à DM foram: a cetoacidose diabética (39% nos cães e 50% nos gatos); a catarata diabetogénica (17%) e a ITU (17%), na espécie canídea; e a lipidose hepática (42%), na espécie felídea.
ABSTRACT - Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a complex endocrine disease, with high prevalence in clinic of small animals, which is characterized by chronic hyperglycaemia due to absolute or relative inability of pancreatic β cells to produce and secrete insulin and/or an impaired insulin action in tissues, and that will result in important changes in the metabolism of carbohydrates, lipids and proteins, which can be fatal if not treated properly. The aim of this study was to evaluate the epidemiological and clinicopathological aspects present in a total of 23 canines and 12 felines diabetics, in order to identify possible predisposing factors and clinical and laboratory changes. It was also assessed the disease progression and the onset of associated complications, from the time of diagnosis. The present study demonstrated that DM is a disease that typically occurs in adult canines and felines, middle-aged to geriatric, mainly affecting the intact female canines and intact male felines. The main clinical and laboratory changes observed were hyperglycemia (100% in both species), glycosuria (100% in both species), ketonuria (56% in dogs and cats 42%), increased activity of enzymes FAS (70, 5% in dogs and 37.5% in cats), ALT (43% in dogs and 75% in cats) and AST (44% in dogs and 33% in cats); hypertriglyceridemia (100%) and hypercholesterolemia (43%) in canine species; and hyperbilirubinemia (60%) in the feline species. Knowledge of risk factors and diseases associated with DM, it is extremely important, in order to implement a timely and appropriate treatment protocol, to ensure the proper management of endocrine disease, as well as prevent the occurrence of clinical complications. The main complications associated with DM were: diabetic ketoacidosis (39% in dogs and 50% in cats), diabetic cataracts (17%) and UTI (17%) in canine species, and hepatic lipidosis (42%) in feline species.
