You guys are helping alot of people and students in the fields of medicine.

[sergeykuznetsov]

Extremely clear summary of otherwise fairly complex topic! Thank you for this great video!

[Dev_G]

Stunning lecture and exhaustive delivery of information by covering all aspects of disease.
Salute to whole team! !!!

[jonowillmot]

Best summary I've found on these medications!
(also appreciate the low-carb acknowledgement!)

It's a bit technical of how the body works, but very informative +1 from me.

[mrj]

Outstanding most Of doctors dont know this
They dont know how identifay patient the sort Of treatment be given.

For patients with Type 2 your HbA1c, fasting blood glucose and peak post-prandial blood glucose after each main meal are pretty good indicator of how well a treatment is working.

As usual, well-explained educational video. (Small diagrammatic error: the 'Alpha cell' should appear labelled as a Beta cell: the narration is correct nonetheless)

GLP-1 agonists cause insulin release only when glucose levels are elevated (so they actually have a low risk of hypoglycemia for that reason).

[josephinedivers]

Thank you for the easy to understand concept of basal bolus strategy, my text book didn't really cover this. thank you

[samsonpug]

Great vid. But missing SGLT2 inhibitors. These act in the kidney resulting in excess glucose being urinated out.

I removed from my diet products containing gluten or starch.
These are grain products. They block (inhibe) the production of insulin.
I do not have diabetes II anymore (any longer). Sorry for my english. Thanks God!

Way to go with the patient shaming, saying the problem with the healthy diet is it takes a lot of self control. It’s been shown that in conditions like obesity there are hormonal factors that work to maintain obesity, which is half the reason bariatric surgery works.

[shygirlnow]

with Metformin and Category 3 of the DM drugs, can a patient use it if they have high liver enzymes from NAFLD?(for those that don't know, its Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver Disease)

[dhverma]

nice video, but GLP-1 analogue and DPP-4 inhibitors does not cause hypoglycemia.
Unlike sulphonylureas, both incretin-based therapies only promote insulin secretion in presence of increase blood glucose level. Thus, when the blood glucose is normal, the insulin secretion is not augmented and so these agents do not cause hypoglycaemia.

[khaled]

I think u meant to write beta cells instead of alpha cells on the drawing when you were talking about sulfanylureas

[biggybg]

You state the best type of diet to combat Type II diabetes consists of low calorie/low carb. Individuals such as Dr. Neal Barnard argue that the best way to naturally cure Type II diabetes is through a high carb/low fat (vegan) diet. Dr.Barnard's study and application seem to work. Is this type of diet a healthy alternative?

[katienichols]

FYI, at 7:10 the narrator of the video says "beta cells" when talking about insulin secretion, however, the image drawn is labeled alpha cell. Beta cells would be correct, not what is labeled.

[sukanyaraghu]

Please post a video on Incretin pathway. Thanks

[DirettaInterOfficial]

Why is it that biguanides and thiazolidinediones don't carry a risk of hypoglycaemia, unlike the others?
