Variants of type 1 diabetes

 Type 1 diabetes and its variants.

Some years ago when I started this blog, I wrote about diabetes and also about my history of being diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, this time I want to share with you the variants or the classification that exists within this type of diabetes.


Concepts.

Before going fully into the variants, I think it is important to remember the concepts of diabetes and type 1 diabetes:

Diabetes: is a chronic condition that appears when the pancreas is not able to produce enough insulin or when the body cannot use the insulin it produces. It is mainly characterized by the presence of high concentrations of glucose in the blood (hyperglycemia).

Type 1 diabetes: is an autoimmune disease, in which the insulin-producing cells are attacked and destroyed: the beta cells of the pancreas. Lacking insulin, the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins cannot be carried out correctly. Better known as insulin-dependent or juvenile diabetes mellitus.



Variants of type 1 diabetes.

Having these two concepts, let's now continue with the variants that occur within type 1 diabetes.

In type 1 diabetes, two fundamental variants are distinguished:

Type 1a diabetes mellitus, which is of autoimmune origin, and type 1b diabetes mellitus, which is idiopathic.

Autoimmune diabetes: is an autoimmune disorder in which the body's immune system attacks the beta cells of the pancreas that produce insulin. This is the most common type of type 1 diabetes and results from the interaction of environmental and genetic factors.

Type 1 idiopathic diabetes: This refers to rare forms of the disease for which there is no known cause. Initial insulinogenic, the tendency to ketosis or ketoacidosis is present, in which no data of autoimmunity are found. Idiopathic diabetes is more common in the African American, Asian, and Hispanic American populations.


It is very important to know that the origin and causes of diabetes mellitus can be very diverse, but it entails the existence of alterations in insulin secretion, sensitivity to the action of the hormone, or both at some point in its natural history.

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...

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...

Bandera Mexicana

24 de febrero día de la Bandera de México. Uno de los símbolos patrios mexicanos es la bandera que es considerada como una de las más bonitas del mundo. También es un símbolo que representa la independencia, justicia y libertad, sus orígenes se remontan al año 1821, pero es desde 1940 que se le rinde honor oficial como parte intangible de la identidad mexicana. El día de la Bandera de México se celebra el 24 de febrero, y esto es en memoria de la proclamación del Plan de Iguala por Agustín de Iturbide el mismo día de febrero de 1821. A lo largo de la historia de México las banderas fueron cambiando, pero la bandera actual, fue adoptada por decreto el 16 de septiembre de 1968, y confirmada por la ley el 24 de febrero de 1984. Se cree que uno de los motivos para el rediseño definitivo de la bandera fue el papel de México como anfitrión de los XIX Juegos Olímpicos a celebrarse en el país, además de su similitud con la bandera italiana por utilizar la m...
