What do Judy’s Glucose Tolerance Test results mean? A table with abnormal GTT values is provided below. Provide specific recommendations for Judy based on her GTT results. At 26 weeks, Judy completed the one-hour glucose challenge screening and the resultswere just outside of the normal range. For this reason, the patient was asked tocomplete the three-hour Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) screening.Patient completed GTT at the end of the 27th week. After a baseline blood draw, Judydrank the provided glucose solution. Her blood was drawn one hour later, two hourslater, and again after three hours.• Glucose Tolerance Testing results are shown below:Blood glucose• Intervallevel• Fastin• 80 mg/dl• Onehour175 mg/dl• Twohour• 160 mg/dl• Threehour130 mg/dl IntervalAbnormal ValueBlood Draw 1- Fasting95 mg/dl or higherBlood Draw 2 – One hour180 mg/dl or higherBlood Draw 3 – Two hours155 mg/dl or higherBlood Draw 4 – Three hours140 mg/dl or higher

A 45-year-old woman comes to the physician because of a 3-month history of bone, joint, and muscle pain. She says, "I am always tired, and my mood fluctuates between anxiety and depression." She has a history of renal calculi. Physical examination shows no abnormalities. Serum studies show a calcium concentration of 125 mg/dL and an intact parathyroid hormone concentration of 70 pg/mL (N=10–65). During an exploratory operation of the neck for a parathyroid adenoma, both superior parathyroid glands are easily located on the posterior surface of the thyroid gland and appear normal. Neither inferior parathyroid gland can be found. The surgeon should look for the inferior parathyroid glands in which of the following locations? A) At the base of the tongue B) In the neck above the hyoid bone C) in the neck lateral to the carotid sheath D) Within the thymus E) There are no inferior parathyroid glands in this patient

CC: My blood sugars have not been very good lately. I’m doing everything I am supposed to be doing HPI: A 24-year-old male patient comes to your primary care clinic to establish care. He has type 1 diabetes mellitus diagnosed at age 11. He has not seen a provider in about 9 months. Currently, he is taking NPH insulin 30 units bid (8 a.m. and 6 p.m.) with 10 units Humalog before each meal. He does not take any other medications. He does not use tobacco products but does drink alcohol on the weekends. He reports checking blood glucose (BG) levels three to four times daily but did not bring his glucose log or meter. He reports his fasting blood sugar runs 150 to 190 and prandial glucose readings are 140- 250. He reports hypoglycemic episodes one to two times per week. He exercises intermittently but is not on a regular schedule. He does not eat on a regular schedule every day although he says he knows that he should. He works at a light-activity job 8 hours daily.

Mary, who has type 2 diabetes, has asked you about the importance of glycaemic index (GI) in her glucose control. Based on your knowledge, you inform her: a) That choosing low GI carbohydrate sources over high GI sources will not have any beneficial impact on her glucose control b) That choosing low GI carbohydrate sources over high GI sources might help to "fine-tune" glucose levels when considered along with total carbohydrate intake c) To choose carbohydrate sources containing higher levels of amylopectin starch, as it gets digested slower than amylose starch d) That she should choose glucose sources (e.g. white rice) over fructose sources (e.g. fruits), as glucose will produce a lower glycaemic response than will fructose
The symptoms of Cushing’s disease include abdominal obesity, hypertension, glucose intolerance (steroid diabetes), hirsutism, osteoporosis, polyuria, and polydipsia.
