Criteria for the Diagnosis of DiabetesCriteria for the Diagnosis of Diabetes

1. A1c ≥ 6.5%. This test should be performed in a laboratory using a method that is NGSP certified and standardized to the DCCT assay.*

OR

2. FPG ≥ 126 mg/dl (7.0 mmol/l). Fasting is defined as no caloric intake for at least 8 h.*

OR

3. 2-h plasma glucose ≥ 200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/l) during an OGTT. This test should be performed as described by the World Health Organization, using a glucose load containing the equivalent of 75 g anhydrous glucose dissolved in water.*

OR

4. In a patient with classic symptoms of hyperglycemia or hyperglycemic crisis, a random plasma glucose ≥ 200 mg/dl (11.1 mmol/l).

* In the absence of unequivocal hyperglycemia, criteria 1-3 should be confirmed by repeat testing

Blood Glucose Concentrations Are Largely Determined by Beta-Cell FunctionBlood Glucose Concentrations Are Largely Determined by Beta-Cell Function

• Beta-Cell Function– Insulin synthesis

– Insulin secretion

• Beta-Cell Functional Capacity– Beta-cell mass (cell turnover and neogenesis)

– First-phase/second-phase insulin release

– Insulin processing (proinsulin to insulin)

– Glucose sensitivity

• Beta-Cell Functional Demand– Glucose absorption (diet, gastric emptying)

– Hepatic glucose production (glycolysis, gluconeogenesis)

– Peripheral glucose uptake (insulin sensitivity, exercise)

Glucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an Important Incretin HormoneGlucagon-Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1) is an Important Incretin Hormone

• The “incretin effect” started the search

• Incretins– Gut hormones that enhance insulin secretion in response to food

– Glucose-dependent insulin secretion

• GLP-1– Secreted from L cells of the intestines

– Most well-characterized incretin

– Diminished in type 2 diabetes

• Glucagon– Secreted from pancreatic alpha cells

– Counterregulatory hormone to insulin

– Elevated in type 2 diabetes

AACE/ACE Algorithm SummaryAACE/ACE Algorithm Summary

• The algorithm is intended for use in conjunction with more detailed and comprehensive information (e.g., prescribing information, ACE/AACE Road Maps, etc)

• The algorithm is intended to provide guidance

• A1C goal of ≤ 6.5% or less– Needs to be individualized to minimize risks of hypoglycemia

• Therapeutic pathways stratified based on current A1C values

• 8 major classes of medications– Prioritized by safety, efficacy, risk of hypo, simplicity, patient

adherence and cost of medication

– Combination medications that have complimentary mechanisms of action
