Unique Risk Factors for Diabetes in Women
• Gestational Diabetes Up to 70% of women with gestational diabetes develop T2DM within 5
years of the pregnancy
• PreeclampsiaWomen with preeclampsia are 3.8 times more likely to develop
diabetes, and 11.6 times more likely to develop hypertension requiring drug treatment
• Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) 5-fold risk of developing T2DM compared with age- and weight-
matched control subjects Up to 70% have dyslipidemiaMetabolic syndrome is present in approximately 40%
T2DM = type 2 diabetes mellitus. Kim C, et al. Diabetes Care. 2002;25(10):1862-1868. Magnussen EB, et al. Obstet Gynecol. 2009;114(5):961-970. Wild R, et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2010;95(5):2038-2049.
Obesity and Diabetes Risk
• Diabetes in a biologic relative raises the risk2× increase with 1 DM parent (26% risk)5× increase with both DM parents3× increase with a DM sibling
• Heritability of DM is estimated to be 25%Genes explain <10% of overall DM heritability
• The socioenvironmental settingimpacts expression of genetic risk26% risk with a DM spouse

Obesity and Diabetes Risk
• Biologic clustering (family risk/genetic risk)
• “Social clustering” (not genetic/not related) Common living environment, resources, social habits, eating
patterns, physical activities, activity level, health behavior
• The best quality studies tested glucose tolerance 26% risk without adjustment for BMI 18% risk with adjustment for BMI (shared risk) Higher association for spousal dysglycemia (IFG/IGT) 26% risk of dysglycemia (“ripple effects”)
Genetics/ Heritability Socioenvironmental Influences: Clustering
IFG = impaired fasting glucose; IGT = impaired glucose tolerance.Leong A, et al. BMC Med. 2014;12:12. Baliunas DO, et al. Diabetes Care. 2009;32(11):2123-2132.

T2DM Can Be Prevented or Delayed by Intervention
An Ounce of Prevention isWorth a Pound of Cure
Not all overweight or obese individuals have subclinical or clinical diabetes, but
weight gain increases their risk for diabetes, hypertension, and
hyperlipidemia

Gender Differences
• IFG Higher prevalence in men, increases with ageLower prevalence in women
• IGTHigher prevalence in women at all ages in some studiesNHANES data support equal prevalence in men and
women

Screen for T2DM• BMI ≥25
• Family history (first-degree relative)
• Ethnicity (native American Indian, Latino, African-American, Asian, Pacific Islander)
• Women with previous gestational diabetes or >9 pounds childbirth weight
• Previously identified IFG or IGT (metabolic syndrome)
• Dyslipidemia (HDL ≤35 mg/dL and/or TG ≥250 mg/dL)
• Hypertension (BP >140/90)
• PCOS or acanthosis nigracans
• CVD disease
• Physically inactive
• Age ≥45 years (screen every 3 years)
• Patients taking glucocorticoids or antipsychotics
BMI • Normal 18.5–24.9• Overweight 25–29.9• Obesity >30
− Class I 30–34.9− Class II 35–39.9− Class III >40
• Extreme obesity 50 to >70
HDL = high density lipoprotein; TG = triglycerides; BP = blood pressure.Katznelson L, et al. Endocr Pract. 2011;17(4):636-646. Diabetes Care. 2016;39(Suppl 1).
Making the DiagnosisCriteria for the Diagnosis of Diabetes
1. • FPG ≥126 mg/dL (7.0 mmol/L)*• Fasting is defined as no caloric intake for at least 8 hours
OR
2. • 2-hour plasma glucose ≥200 mg/dL (11.1 mmol/L) during an OGTT*• The test should be performed as described by the WHO, using glucose load
containing the equivalent of 75 g anhydrous glucose dissolved in waterOR
3. • HbA1c ≥6.5% (48 mmol/mol)*• The test should be performed in a laboratory using a method that is NGSP
certified and standardized to the DCCT assay
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, results should be confirmed by repeat testing.DCCT = Diabetes Control and Complications Trial; FPG = fasting plasma glucose; HbA1c = hemoglobin A1c; OGTT = oral glucose tolerance test.Diabetes Care. 2016;39(Suppl 1).
ADA Clinical Practice Guidelines
• Increased risk for prediabetes IFG 100–125 mg/dL IGT 140–199 mg/dLHbA1c 5.7% to 6.4%
• Sensitivity, 66%; Specificity, 88%
• Predictive diabetes over thenext 6 years
• Risk is continuous
ADA = American Diabetes Association.American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2005;28(Suppl 1):S37-S42. American Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2014;37(Supp 1).
Diabetes Prevention• The DPP studied the effects of 3 interventions in >3000 adults with
prediabetes over 3 years (A)Diet and exercise resulted in a 58% reduction in risk of
developing diabetesMetformin reduced the risk by 31% and TZDs by 23% (this arm
of the study was discharged after 10 months)• The use of metformin to prevent T2DM is especially beneficial for
those with a BMI >35, age <60, and women with prior gestational diabetes (A)
• Patients with IGT or IFG should be counseled to lose 5% to 10% of body weight and walk 150 minutes weekly (A)
DPP = Diabetes Prevention Program; TZD = thiazolidinediones.DPP Research Group. Diabetes Care. 2002;25(12):2165-2171. Diabetes Care. 2016;39(Suppl 1).
Diabetes Prevention (continued)
• Follow-up counseling is important for successful prevention (B), and patients with prediabetes should be monitored yearly for the development of overt T2DM (E)
• Education modalities (B)Self-management/support programs designed for

Medical Treatment for Obesity
— Predominant Contributor to Development & Deterioration of Diabetes
Recent Advances in Obesity Management
• AMA now recognizes obesity as a disease
• CMS reimburses PCPs for “intensive behavioral therapy for obesity”
• New guidelines promote weight management as a path to disease managementAACE algorithmsAHA/ACC/TOS Guidelines on Obesity Management
• 2 new medications on market in 2012, 2 more approved by the FDA in 2014 and 2015; overlap with diabetes medications
AACE = American Association of Clinical Endocrinologists; ACC = American College of Cardiology; AHA = American Heart Association; AMA = American Medical Association; CMS = Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services; PCP = primary care physician; TOS = The Obesity Society.
Obesity and Diabetes: Lifestyle Intervention
• Diet and nutrition education/counseling
• Frequent contact with medical professional
• Active and long-term management; chronic disease model
• Exercise and increased daily activities Current guidelines: 30 minutes of physical activity “most days,” “every
day,” “5 days a week” or “150 minutes a week”, which is enough to reduce cardiovascular risk; not enough to impact weight reduction Institute of Medicine recommends 60 minutes of moderate activity for
weight maintenance Treating obesity requires 90 to 120 minutes of daily moderate
exerciseAmerican Diabetes Association. Diabetes Care. 2014;37(1):S14-S80. Rogovik AL. Canadian Family Physician. 2009;55(3): 257-259. Yanovski SZ, et al. JAMA. 2014;311(1):74-86. Brooks GA, et al.

Challenges Associated with Weight Reduction
• Altered physiology• Longer term and persistent changes • Adaptive responses to weight loss result in altered total/resting
energy expenditure Persist as long as reduced weight is maintained To maintain stable weight, must actively eat less and exercise more,
regardless of new weight• Appetite-related hormones remain altered for greater than 12
months after weight reduction Functions to promote increased energy intake and weight regain
• Increased hunger and decreased satiety (altered 24-hour circulating leptin, CCK, insulin) Basal and reactive responses
Apovian CM, et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2015;100(2):342-362. Grundy, SM, et al. J Am Coll Cardiol.2012;59(7):635-643.
Obesity Therapies: Medications
• Many cannot lose sufficient weight to impact health with lifestyle interventions
• In 2011, 3% (2.74 million) of obese adults used obesity medications
• Lifestyle interventions may be combined with short-term weight loss agents or longer use agents following guidelines
• Lifestyle interventions and/or medications may impact patient progression to diabetes and CVD risk factors

Obesity Therapies: Medications
•Weight loss medications do not work as a stand-alone method or treatment
•Weight loss medications have not been shown to reduce CVD morbidity/mortality
•Weight loss must be persistent to achieve longer term benefits- Sustained weight loss of 3% may improve CVD risk, but ≥5% is clinically meaningful
Ogden CL, et al. NCHS Data Brief. 2012;(82):1-8. Hampp C, et al. Pharmacotherapy. 2013;33(12):1299-1307. Yanovski SZ, et al. JAMA. 2014;311(1):74-86.
Clinically Meaningful Weight Loss•Weight loss of at least 5%May be achieved 12 weeks or 1 year
•The FDA efficacy trial benchmarks for weight loss compared to placebo (for FDA approval)≥35% of study patients lose ≥5% of their initial weight
compared to approximately 15% placebo patients
Yanovski SZ, et al. JAMA. 2014;311(1):74-86.
Obesity Therapies: Medications• Short-term (≤12 weeks): 4 centrally mediated noradrenergic
agents with FDA approval prior to new requirementsPhentermineDiethylpropionPhendimetrazineBenzphetamine

Treatment of Diabetes in Obese Patients
Female Patient-Centric Approach to T2DM Management
7
Gender-Based Differences Impact on T2DM Management in Women
Gender-related• Differences in body fat distribution• Hormones• Slower glucose absorption in women• Greater (age) post-menopausal metabolic deterioration (B cell function and insulin resistance)
• Greater weight gain and risk for hypoglycemia with women
Kautzky-Willer A, et al. Diabetes Obes Metab. 2015;17(6):533-540.
Gender Differences in Disease Course and Outcomes
T2DM affects women disproportionately
• Poorer glycemic control
• Less likely to achieve HbA1c goal
• CVD risk remains elevated
• Higher all cause morbidity and mortality
• Emerging data for individualized management in women
• Guidelines for diabetes treatment do not differentiate between sexes

oPromising durability
• Lowers postprandial glucose Decrease A1c by 0.5% to 0.7% ( ~15–20 mg/dL; most postprandial)
• Most common side effects Stuffy, runny nose Headache Upper respiratory tract infection
GI = gastrointestinal.Cornell S, et al. Postgrad Med. 2012;124(4):84-94.
GLP-1 Receptor AgonistsShort-Acting GLP-1
Agonists

Options
New Interest in Novel Extended Time-Action Insulin Profiles
• Pharmacodynamics rely on decreased solubility at the site of injection or shift in absorption/bioavailability
• Advances in synthetic chemistry and biosynthesis has allowed optimization of the insulin molecule for enhanced efficacy and safety
• New emerging evidence suggests early consideration of insulin therapy
• Extended time-action may improve patient acceptance and/or adherence
• May lead to improved treatment outcome – thus a focus for ongoing research

Rationale for and Limitations of Prandial Insulin Therapy in T2DM
• Aspart, glulisine, and lispro more nearly resemble physiological prandial insulin than regular human insulin, but they3
May not be absorbed rapidly enough, resulting in postprandial hyperglycemia May peak late (up to 120 min postinjection), resulting in hypoglycemia hours

Limitations of Current Basal Insulin Therapy in T2DM
Detemir and glargine more nearly resemble physiological basal insulin than NPH, but they
• May not have 24-hour duration of action
• Substantial within-patient reliability
• Clinically meaningful rates of nocturnal hypoglycemia
NPH = neutral protamine hagedorn.Polonsky KS, et al. N Engl J Med. 1988;318(19):1231-1239. Zinman B. N Engl J Med. 1989;321(6):363-370. Garber AJ. Diabetes Obes Metab. 2014;16(6):483-491.
Emerging Basal Insulin Analogues: Novel Mechanisms of Action
Insulin Degludec• Dihexamers (69 kDa) form
soluble multihexamers after injection
• Multihexamers (>5000 kDa) disassemble slowly
• Monomers are released rapidly after hexamers disassemble
• Glucose-lowering effect that persists for up to 42 hours
• FDA approved September 2015
Long multihexamer chainsassemble
Phenol from the vehiclediffuses quickly, and insulindegludec links up via single
side-chain contacts
Insulin degludec injected
Jonassen I, et al. Pharm Res. 2012;29(8):2104-2114. Haahr H, et al. Clin Pharmacokinet. 2014;53(9):787-800.
Ultra-Long-Acting Insulins
• Subcutaneous insulin injection does not exactly mimic endogenous insulin secretion
• Ultra-long-acting basal insulins have a flatter time-action profile and may be even less likely to cause nocturnal hypoglycemia than first-generation insulin analogues
• Several insulins designed for once-weekly administration are in early development
U-300 Glargine
• Approved• Same molecule as U-100
glargine• Compared with U-100 glargine:
• Equally effective• Less nocturnal hypoglycemia• Equivalent weight gain
Degludec
• Approved• Forms multihexamers for slow
release• Compared with U-100 glargine:
• Equally effective• Less nocturnal hypoglycemia• Equivalent weight gain

Investigational and Evolving Options
• Ultra-long dosing (>24 hours, weekly)
• Alternative delivery systems (oral, patch, inhaled)
• Designed to address flexibility, number of administrations, regimen complexity
Greenhill C. Nat Rev Endocrinol. 2016;[Epub ahead of print].
Inhaled Insulin in T2DM
• Inhaled administration options
• Peak levels achieved in approximately 15 minutes
• Add-on to other T2DM medications
• Safety considerations include lung disease (contraindicated in asthma, COPD; perform spirometry prior to use, monitor for symptoms of CHF, hypoglycemia)
Treatment-Induced Hypoglycemia in WomenHypoglycemia—Significant Limiting Factor in
Diabetes Management
• More common, more severe, more severe nocturnal hypoglycemia
• Lower counter-regulatory responses to hypoglycemia
• Fear, anxiety, reduced quality of life/productivity related to episodes; important underlying reason for unwillingness to adhere to intensive insulin regimens (in studies women taking significantly higher insulin dose/kg compared to men yet less likely to achieve HbA1c goal)
• Advances in temporal profile, predictability of insulin preparations, less weight impact and novel mechanisms positively impact treatment of T2DM in women while reducing treatment-related hypoglycemia
Anderson M, et al. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes. 2014;7:85-94. Kautzky-Willer A, et al. Diabetes Obes Metab. 2015;17(6):533-540.
Final Comments on Medications• New medications only recently available. We are in the
dawn of developing these varied approaches
• There is no perfect medication; every patient profile is different and must be matched to the drug profile
• As in all treatments, prescribing is shared decision making
• The future points to using medications in combination, mimicking the biologic effects; improving management of hyperglycemia and patient outcomes
• Physicians must learn to prescribe appropriately to prescribe safely. In appropriate patients, medications can bring needed help to struggling patients
Take Home• Assess insight regarding their physiology and related health
risks (WHAT)
• Assess their readiness to change
• Identify their WHY goals and set realistic expectations
• Plan a management and follow-up strategy together – HOW(shared decision making)
• Enlist help of trusted colleagues (nutritionists, behaviorists, educators, trainers, etc.)
• Learn and utilize helpful community resources / online tools
• Schedule frequent follow-up visits as needed (promote positive attitude)
• Integrate successful strategies into their long-term lifestyle
