Diabetes mellitus has become epidemic on a global scale, and
millions of new cases are diagnosed every year. The epidemic of
diabetes mellitus is expected to result in one of the steepest
rises in human morbidity and mortality ever observed outside of
wartime. Insulin resistance is a hallmark of pre-diabetes and type
2 diabetes mellitus, and is characterized by impaired insulin-
signaling transduction. Authoritative and comprehensive,
Lipoproteins in Diabetes Mellitus details the many changes wrought
by insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus on lipid and
lipoprotein metabolism. The book begins by summarizing the various
techniques to measure lipoproteins and their subclasses. The
mechanisms by which insulin resistance and diabetes mellitus
increase risk for atherosclerosis, diabetic retinopathy, and
diabetic nephropathy are then explored in detail. Finally, the
effects of lifestyle modification and the results of clinical
trials using established and investigational drugs are discussed.
An invaluable contribution to the literature, Lipoproteins in
Diabetes Mellitus is a comprehensive reference on the clinical and
scientific aspects of lipoproteins in diabetes. It will have a
long-lasting and significant effect on the medical management of
people with diabetes.
