Question 1

I would like to know the exact mechanism of entry of potassium into

cells under the influence of insulin.

Question 2

I am seeing an increasing number of diabetic patients in primary care

who have elevated fasting blood glucose readings but postprandial

measurements that are normal or only slightly high. Does this indicate

insulin resistance in these patients? What is the reason for this trend?

Question 3

What are the latest diagnostic criteria for the diagnosis of diabetes

mellitus?

Question 4

What test is recommended for diabetes and can the same be used to

diagnose diabetes in a child?

Question 5

What is the value of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1C) in diabetes

mellitus?

Question 6

I read in a book that in diabetics the random blood sugar is more

important than the fasting; on a medical website I noted that, for a

patient with type 2 diabetes, the fasting blood sugar level is more

important. What do you say?

Is it acceptable to let the fasting blood sugar remain at approximately

1.5 mmol/L above the upper limit in a patient of60 years with type 2

and presently on oral therapy?

Question 7

In type 2 diabetes, which blood sugar - fasting or random - is more

revealing prognostically?

Question 8

Why are the fasting and 2-hour blood glucose levels needed in a diabetic

patient being treated with oral antidiabetic drugs?

Question 9

Is it sufficient to use a fasting blood sugar and glycosylated haemoglobin

(HbA1C) level as a guide to modify the insulin or oral antidiabetic dose

without considering the 1 and 2 hour postprandial values?

Question 10

What is the value of the 2-hour postprandial blood sugar level above

which the dose of an oral antidiabetic should be increased if this value is

exceeded several times despite dietary modification?
