Diabetes MODY/español

Diabetes tipo MODY.

¿Qué es?

Este tipo de diabetes recibe su nombre por la abreviatura de la frase en inglés, Maturity Onset Diabetes of the Young (diabetes de la edad madura que se presenta en el joven). La diabetes tipo MODY en un principio se puede parecer más a la tipo 2, que inicia en la madurez y sin necesidad de insulina, pero la MODY se presenta en una edad precoz, antes de los 25 años y no son obesos.

La diabetes tipo MODY es mucho menos frecuente siendo responsable del 2-5% de los casos, aunque muchas veces está sin diagnosticar. Se debe a un problema genético de herencia dominante, es decir, que se transmite fuertemente de padres a hijos. Existen diferentes subtipos de diabetes MODY, dependiente del problema genético que exista y, según el tipo, pueden tratarse con dieta, fármacos orales o necesitar insulina, especialmente en las de larga evolución.


La mayoría de los casos de diabetes MODY se deben a mutaciones heterocigóticas en 6 genes (4):

  • Gen que codifica la enzima glucoquinasa: subtipo MODY 2 (9). 
  • Factor nuclear hepático 4 alfa: subtipo MODY 1 (10). 
  • Factor nuclear hepático 1 alfa: subtipo MODY 3 (11). 
  • Factor 1 promotor de la insulina: subtipo MODY 4 (12). 
  • Factor nuclear hepático 1 beta: subtipo MODY 5 (13). 
  • Factor 1 de diferenciación neurogénica, también denominado beta 2: subtipo MODY 6 (14).

Síntomas.


 

  • Hiperglucemia asintomática. 
  • No suele asociarse con obesidad o sobrepeso. 
  • Suele tener una evolución lenta y progresiva. 
  • Déficit en la secreción de insulina. 
  • No suele iniciarse con cetonurias. 
  • Evolución lenta y progresiva. 


Tratamiento.



La perspectiva clínica y el tratamiento para la diabetes tipo MODY depende de la causa genética. El MODY 2 puede ser manejado con alimentación y ejercicios físicos con excelente pronóstico. Los subtipos 1, 3 y 4 responden bien al uso de sulfonilureas, aunque una importante proporción de ellos (30-40 % para MODY 1 y MODY 3), requieren eventualmente terapia insulínica, debido al fallo progresivo de las células beta. El MODY 5 requiere reemplazo de la función pancreática endocrina y exocrina, y tratamiento para múltiples anomalías orgánicas. En los pacientes con sobrepeso la pérdida de peso mejora la hiperglucemia.

The Propaganda Principles of Goebbels

The 11 Propaganda Principles of Joseph Goebbels.   Who was Joseph Goebbels?   Joseph Goebbels was the father of Nazi propaganda and head of the Ministry of Popular Education and Propaganda, created by Adolf Hitler when he came to power in 1933. Goebbels had been the director of the Nazi Party's communication task and the great architect of the rise to can.   In those times, Adolf Hitler was a messianic figure, a myth that led the country wrapped in an aura of divinity. And if Hitler was the Messiah, Goebbels was his prophet.     Once in government and with a free hand to monopolize the state media apparatus, Goebbels banned all publications and media outlets outside his control and orchestrated a system of slogans to be broadcast through a centralized power of cinema, and radio, theater, literature, and the press.   He was also in charge of promoting or making government announcements public. His work in communication, control, and mass mani...

Political fanaticism.

  Political fanaticism.    In recent years, a very latent phenomenon that has been growing dangerously and vertiginously, in a context of high polarization; this distorter is presented as an enemy of electoral conscience and a healthy and mature democracy, it is political fanaticism.    But let's start by defining fanaticism:    According to the definition of the Royal Spanish Academy : it is an “excessive passion and tenacity in the defense of beliefs or opinions, especially religious or political ones”.    For Voltaire: “Fanaticism is to superstition what delirium is to fever, what rage is to anger. He who has ecstasies, visions, who takes dreams for realities and his imaginations for prophecies is a novice fanatic with great hopes; he may soon get to kill for God's sake."    Therefore, fanaticism is identified by the desire to impose their ideas, despise those who are different, be based on a series of thoughts that ar...
