Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 Schematic Diagram

This document summarizes the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus, including how insulin resistance and hyperglycemia can lead to fluid shifting from cells to blood, favoring bacterial growth and infection. Left untreated, this can result in complications throughout the body like neuropathy, retinopathy, nephropathy, cardiovascular disease, and amputation due to damage to various tissues from long-term high blood sugar.
