Overview
If left untreated, patients with [type 1 DM] may progress to develop complications of the hyperglycemia state, which commonly include diabetes ketoacidosis and hyperglycemia hyperosmolar state. Prognosis is generally good with compliance with medications.
Natural History
- The symptoms of type 1 diabetes usually develop in the first decade of life, and start with non-specific symptoms of classic new onset type 1 diabetes or acute symptoms with diabetic ketoacidosis. Without treatment, the patient will develop complications of type 1 diabetes.[1]
Complications
- Complications for type 1 diabetes include:[2][3][4][5]
Complications of Diabetes | |
---|---|
Acute Complications due to hyperglycemia | |
Microvascular complications | Eye disease
Neuropathy Sensory and motor (mono- and polyneuropathy) and Autonomic neuropathy Nephropathy (albuminuria and declining renal function) |
Macrovascular complications | Coronary heart disease |
Other | Gastrointestinal (gastroparesis, diarrhea)
Genitourinary (uropathy/sexual dysfunction) Cheiroarthropathy (thickened skin and reduced joint mobility) Fatty liver disease Low testosterone in men |
- In a control study patients with type 1 diabetes had significantly lower total body bone mineral density (BMD) z-score values. Lower levels of osteocalcin, C-terminal telopeptide, calcium, phosphorus, and magnesium have been found in patients with type 1 diabetes compared to control group.[6]
- A study demonstrated that children with type 1 diabetes mentioned barriers for physical activity (eg, fear of hypoglycemia, loss of control of diabetes and low fitness). This study report significant improvement with parental support. [7]
- Based on a systematic review, type 1 diabetic patients have worse executive function performance, working memory and task switching, compared to the control group.[8]
- The followings are some related dermatological consequences of type 1 diabetes:[9]
- Scleroderma-like skin changes: Pathogenesis is not fully understood, nevertheless advanced glycosylation end products and sugar alcohols buildup in the upper dermis is believed to effect the strengthening of collagen.
- Cheiroarthropathy (thickened skin and reduced joint mobility)
- Scleredema diabeticorum
- Necrobiosis lipoidica
- Bullosis diabeticorum
- Xerosis
- Eruptive xanthomas: Although xanthomas are routinely related to hypertriglyceridemia, type 1 diabetic patients may develop eruptive xanthomas with normal levels of triglyceride. Prevelance of Eruptive xanthomas in type 1 diabetes is approximately 1%.
Prognosis
- Diabetes is a lifelong disease and there is no cure. Tight control of blood glucose can prevent or delay diabetes complications. But these problems can occur, even in people with good diabetes control.[11]
