| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Managing Diabetes and Hyperglycemia in the Hospital Setting Boris Draznin, 2016-05-20 As the number of patients with diabetes increases annually, it is not surprising that the number of patients with diabetes who are admitted to the hospital also increases. Once in the hospital, patients with diabetes or hyperglycemia may be admitted to the Intensive Care Unit, require urgent or elective surgery, enteral or parenteral nutrition, intravenous insulin infusion, or therapies that significantly impact glycemic control (e.g., steroids). Because many clinical outcomes are influenced by the degree of glycemic control, knowledge of the best practices in inpatient diabetes management is extremely important. The field of inpatient management of diabetes and hyperglycemia has grown substantially in the last several years. This body of knowledge is summarized in this book, so it can reach the audience of hospitalists, endocrinologists, nurses and other team members who take care of hospitalized patients with diabetes and hyperglycemia. |

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Opioid Use Disorder Charles Atkins, 2018 A national emergency ... the worst drug crisis in U.S. history. The grim news surrounding opioid abuse continues to make headlines. But you know what lies behind the headlines. People. People whose lives have been devastated. Jail time and lost jobs. Shattered families. Early deaths and grieving families. People like you and I, prescribed a highly addictive substance to treat their chronic pain or after a minor medical procedure, who find themselves in a dangerous free fall that leaves their lives in ruin. People who walk through your door looking to you for help. Yet opioid disorders are substantially different from other addictions. Drug-driven brain change and physical dependence, coupled with a substance that perilously slows breathing and heart rate have created a deadly epidemic of unprecedented proportions. Super potent synthetics like Fentanyl are flowing into our cities and towns; a cheap but deadly substitute putting the lives of opioid abusers at risk. And many individuals with opioid use disorders have at least one co-occurring mental health problem that must be addressed in the effort to achieve and sustain recovery. A one-size fits all approach to addiction simply won’t suffice. |

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Ethics in Palliative Care Robert C. Macauley MD, 2018-03-01 No specialty faces more diverse and challenging ethical dilemmas than palliative medicine. What is the best way to plan ahead for the end of life? How should physicians respond when patients refuse treatments likely to be beneficial, or demand treatments not likely to be? Who makes medical decisions for patients who are too ill to decide for themselves? Do patients have the right to die (and, if so, what exactly does that mean)? In this volume noted palliative care physician and bioethicist Robert C. Macauley addresses a broad range of issues from historical, legal, clinical, and ethical perspectives. Clinically nuanced and philosophically rigorous, Ethics in Palliative Care analyzes hot-button subjects like physician assisted dying and euthanasia, as well as often overlooked topics such as pediatric palliative care, organ donation, palliative care research, and moral distress. Drawing on real cases yet written in non-technical language, this complete guide will appeal to both medical professionals and lay readers. |
| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Communities in Action National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine, Health and Medicine Division, Board on Population Health and Public Health Practice, Committee on Community-Based Solutions to Promote Health Equity in the United States, 2017-03-27 In the United States, some populations suffer from far greater disparities in health than others. Those disparities are caused not only by fundamental differences in health status across segments of the population, but also because of inequities in factors that impact health status, so-called determinants of health. Only part of an individual's health status depends on his or her behavior and choice; community-wide problems like poverty, unemployment, poor education, inadequate housing, poor public transportation, interpersonal violence, and decaying neighborhoods also contribute to health inequities, as well as the historic and ongoing interplay of structures, policies, and norms that shape lives. When these factors are not optimal in a community, it does not mean they are intractable: such inequities can be mitigated by social policies that can shape health in powerful ways. Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity seeks to delineate the causes of and the solutions to health inequities in the United States. This report focuses on what communities can do to promote health equity, what actions are needed by the many and varied stakeholders that are part of communities or support them, as well as the root causes and structural barriers that need to be overcome. |
| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Mechanisms of Insulin Action Alan R. Saltiel, Jeffrey E. Pessin, 2007-10-05 More than 18 million people in the United States have diabetes mellitus, and about 90% of these have the type 2 form of the disease. In addition, between 17 and 40 million people have insulin resistance, impaired glucose tolerance, or the cluster of abnormalities referred to variably as the metabolic syndrome, the dysmetabolic syndrome, syndrome X, or the insulin resistance syndrome. In all of these disorders, a central component of the pathophysiology is insulin resistance, i.e., reduced responsiveness to insulin in tissues such as muscle, fat and liver. Insulin resistance is also closely linked to other common health problems, including obesity, polycystic ovarian disease, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, and atherosclerosis. In this book, we will attempt to dissect the complexity of the molecular mechanisms of insulin action with a special emphasis on those features of the system that are subject to alteration in type 2 diabetes and other insulin resistant states. We explore insulin action at the most basic levels, through complex systems. The book will be appealing to basic and clinical scientists. |

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: The Death of Expertise Tom Nichols, 2017-02-01 Technology and increasing levels of education have exposed people to more information than ever before. These societal gains, however, have also helped fuel a surge in narcissistic and misguided intellectual egalitarianism that has crippled informed debates on any number of issues. Today, everyone knows everything: with only a quick trip through WebMD or Wikipedia, average citizens believe themselves to be on an equal intellectual footing with doctors and diplomats. All voices, even the most ridiculous, demand to be taken with equal seriousness, and any claim to the contrary is dismissed as undemocratic elitism. Tom Nichols' The Death of Expertise shows how this rejection of experts has occurred: the openness of the internet, the emergence of a customer satisfaction model in higher education, and the transformation of the news industry into a 24-hour entertainment machine, among other reasons. Paradoxically, the increasingly democratic dissemination of information, rather than producing an educated public, has instead created an army of ill-informed and angry citizens who denounce intellectual achievement. When ordinary citizens believe that no one knows more than anyone else, democratic institutions themselves are in danger of falling either to populism or to technocracy or, in the worst case, a combination of both. An update to the 2017breakout hit, the paperback edition of The Death of Expertise provides a new foreword to cover the alarming exacerbation of these trends in the aftermath of Donald Trump's election. Judging from events on the ground since it first published, The Death of Expertise issues a warning about the stability and survival of modern democracy in the Information Age that is even more important today. |

This volume was stimulated by the scientific program which was staged at that time and brought together much of the world's best talent to discuss and analyze the most recent developments in our understanding of pancreatic function, insulin secretion, the interaction of insulin with its target tissues, the mechanism of insulin action at the cellular level, and the defects which underlie both Type I (insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, IDDM) and Type II (noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, NIDDM) forms of the disease. We have chosen to focus the present volume on work related to insulin action. |

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Bariatric Endoscopy Christopher C. Thompson, 2025-02-11 The issues presented in this text have particular relevance in our obesogenic society. Over one-third of the adult population in the United States suffers from obesity, and it is now apparent that this epidemic is progressively becoming global in scale. Lifestyle modification, dietary programs, and medical therapies have an important role, however, alone they are not adequate for many patients. Bariatric surgery has provided an effective alternative for achieving durable weight loss in many patients with morbid obesity, and there are currently several types of surgery being employed for weight loss and the treatment of obesity associated comorbid illness. It is estimated that over 200,000 bariatric procedures are performed annually in the United States. The most common are Roux-en-Y gastric bypass and sleeve gastrectomy among others. Each of these surgeries may also have important variations, and are in turn associated with unique gastrointestinal complications. Additionally, there are new medications and emerging endobariatric therapies that are gaining wide acceptance, and offering less invasive alternatives to this struggling population. This textbook on obesity management and bariatric endoscopy is the work of a multidisciplinary group of international experts and is intended to serve as a comprehensive guide to the endoscopic management of patients with obesity. It is divided into three main sections: I. Obesity Overview and Medical Management; II. Traditional Bariatric Surgery and Endoscopic Management of Complications; and III. Endoscopic Bariatric Therapies. Epidemiology, pharmacological and surgical treatment of obesity, surgical anatomy, post-operative complications, endoscopic treatment of complications, and endoscopic bariatric therapies are covered in-depth. In addition to thoroughly revised chapters from the previous edition, the latest volume includes more than 10 new chapters. Clinical gastroenterologists, gastroenterologists in training, and surgeons with a special interest in obesity management will find this book to be of practical importance. |

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Weight Gain During Pregnancy National Research Council, Institute of Medicine, Board on Children, Youth, and Families, Food and Nutrition Board, Committee to Reexamine IOM Pregnancy Weight Guidelines, 2010-01-14 As women of childbearing age have become heavier, the trade-off between maternal and child health created by variation in gestational weight gain has become more difficult to reconcile. Weight Gain During Pregnancy responds to the need for a reexamination of the 1990 Institute of Medicine guidelines for weight gain during pregnancy. It builds on the conceptual framework that underscored the 1990 weight gain guidelines and addresses the need to update them through a comprehensive review of the literature and independent analyses of existing databases. The book explores relationships between weight gain during pregnancy and a variety of factors (e.g., the mother's weight and height before pregnancy) and places this in the context of the health of the infant and the mother, presenting specific, updated target ranges for weight gain during pregnancy and guidelines for proper measurement. New features of this book include a specific range of recommended gain for obese women. Weight Gain During Pregnancy is intended to assist practitioners who care for women of childbearing age, policy makers, educators, researchers, and the pregnant women themselves to understand the role of gestational weight gain and to provide them with the tools needed to promote optimal pregnancy outcomes. |

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Hypertension: A Clinical Guide Gilbert Wheeler, 2020-09-22 Hypertension or high blood pressure is a chronic medical condition characterized by persistent levels of high blood pressure in the arteries. It is a major risk factor for heart failure, chronic kidney disease, dementia, stroke, coronary artery disease, etc. It can occur due to a high salt intake, smoking, alcohol use and excess body weight. Endocrine disorders, chronic kidney disease, use of birth control pills, and narrowing of the kidney arteries can also cause hypertension. After a diagnosis of hypertension has been ascertained with blood pressure measurements, it is vital that the cause of the condition is understood. To do so, tests for diabetes and cholesterol, serum creatinine evaluation, physical examination and a review of medical history are performed. Weight loss, decreased salt in diet, physical exercise and reducing alcohol intake can lower blood pressure. This book discusses the fundamentals as well as modern approaches in the management of hypertension. It unravels the recent studies in the pathophysiology and causes of hypertension.

| yale diabetes facts and guidelines 2018: Males With Eating Disorders Arnold E. Andersen, 2014-06-17 First published in 1990. The subject of anorexia nervosa and, more recently, bulimia nervosa in males has been a source of interest and controversy in the fields of psychiatry and medicine for more than 300 years. These disorders, sometimes called eating disorders, raise basic questions concerning the nature of abnormalities of the motivated behaviors: Are they subsets of more widely recognized illnesses such as mood disorders? Are they understandable by reference to underlying abnormalities of biochemistry or brain function? In what ways are they similar to and in what ways do they differ from anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa in females? This book will be of interest to a wide variety of people—physicians, psychologists, nurses, social workers, occupational therapists, nutritionists, educators, and all others who may be interested for personal or professional reasons. |
