The
aim of this guideline is to provide evidence-based, practical advice on the
steps necessary to support adults with type 1 diabetes to live full, largely
unrestricted, lives and avoid the acute and long-term complications of both the
disease and of its treatment. The present guideline is an update of many

Diabetes is a
chronic health problem with devastating, yet preventable consequences. It is
characterized by high blood glucose levels resulting from defects in insulin
production, insulin action, or both. This book describes everything about
diabetes.
This book contains a series of up-to-date chapters that
review our current knowledge of type 1 diabetes as an autoimmune disease, the
problems that still remain with existing treatments, and possible solutions for
the near future.
Type 2 diabetes
is primarily due to obesity and not enough exercise in people who are
genetically predisposed. In this book we reviewed insulin secretion in both
healthy individuals and in patients with type 2 diabetes. Because of the risk
associated with progression from insulin resistance to diabetes and
cardiovascular complications increases along a continuum, we included several
chapters on the damage of endothelial cells in type 2 diabetes and genetic
influences on endothelial cell dysfunction.
This book is intended as an overview of recent progress in type 1 diabetes
research worldwide, with a focus on different research areas relevant to this
disease. These include: diabetes mellitus and complications, psychological
aspects of diabetes, perspectives of diabetes pathogenesis, identification and
monitoring of diabetes mellitus, and alternative treatments for diabetes.
