Diabetes Overview
Prof Martin Silink
Rotary Club of Lane Cove
University of Sydney
Diabetes Atlas 2013
Type 1 children 500,000
Type 2 adults 382,000,000
>7 million more each year
4,000,000 Deaths per year
1,000,000 Amputations per year
Leading cause of adult blindness
Leading cause of adult kidney failure
80% in developing world
Prevalence estimates for 2013
The Size of the Problem
Diabetes in Australia – the epidemic grows
A touch of sugar can’t be too serious ?

Does Mild Diabetes exist?
Burden of disease in Australia

or early
death
Not all cells are equally damaged by high glucose levels
Most cells are able to maintain a relatively normal
internal glucose level despite elevated blood
glucose
Four organs are not effective in doing this:
Retina Nerves Kidney Large arteries
Retinopathy Neuropathy Nephropathy
Key Concepts in Chronic Complications
Atherosclerosis
FinnDiane Study of Mortality and Nephropathy
Groop PH et al Diabetes 2009;58:1651-1658
4201 people with T1D
Finland major clinics
Mean Ages 36-42
Diabetes 20-32 years
SMR 2.8
SMR 0.8
SMR 9.2
GLUCOSE + SUPEROXIDE
Reactive oxygen species
Damage is caused by:
Prevention of Chronic Complications
Major Trials proving Glucose control matters
Type 1 diabetes
• DCCT 1983-1993
• Post DCCT/EDIC 1993+
Type 2 diabetes
• UKPDS 1978-1998
• Kumamoto 1992-2000
Key Concepts in Chronic Complications
Key Results of DCCT:
1441 patients with T1D, aged 13-39 years
Half treated intensively to maintain HbA1c 7.2%
Half treated conventionally maintained HbA1c 9.2%
Intensive treatment reduced:
• eye disease by 76%
• kidney disease by 50%
• nerve disease by 60%
Diabetes Control and Complications Trial Results
Trials proved

Retinopathy
Nephropathy
Cardiovascular
Disease
Cumulative incidences after 30 years
of diabetes:
CT IT
Retinopathy 50% 21%
Nephropathy 25% 9%
Cardiovascular disease 14% 9%
<1% became blind, required kidney
replacement, or had an amputation
DCCT/EDIC Study after 30 Years
Trials proved
Metabolic Memory
Period of good control has long
term benefits
