B. Pathophysiology A) Schematic Diagram (Book - Based) : Wasting Blood Glucose Level

This document provides a schematic diagram outlining the pathophysiology of type 2 diabetes mellitus. It lists both non-modifiable and modifiable risk factors. The key steps in the pathophysiology include insulin resistance leading to impaired insulin production and increased glucagon release. This results in elevated blood glucose levels and wasting. Over time, this chronic hyperglycemia can lead to complications affecting small blood vessels and major organs like the eyes, kidneys, and heart.
