Ketoacidosis is when diabetes occur and your body produces high levels of blood acids called ketones.
Relevant Organs involved: heart, blood vessels, nerves, eyes and kidneys.
Complications: Ketones are produced when body breaks fat down instead of sugars. It also develops when your body can't produce enough insulin to process sugar properly.

Peripheral Artery Disease ( Russell and Olivia)

# data[].attributes.body
People with diabetes have a higher risk of developing  atherosclerosis, the most common cause of peripheral artery disease (PAD). And individuals with PAD have a much higher risk of heart attack or stroke. It is the blockage of arteries that lead to outside of the brain and heart which include the neck, stomach, and arms. Fatty deposits build up in the inner linings of the arteries in the legs making them narrower and complicating blood flow and could possibly stop it.
Body systems affected: cardiovascular
Parts of body mostly affected: arms, legs, and feet.

when the left over food stops and hardens your body thinks you have low blood pressure when you actually have high because there is a delay

it's a disorder that affects both type 1 & 2 diabetes and takes too long to empty the stomach
the movement of food is slowed or stopped

Peripheral Artery Disease is the problem that causes poor blood flow to the arms, legs, or feet. It harms about 8.5 million of the Americans becoming more affective as we age.

A stroke is a "brain attack," and can happen to anybody at any time. This happens when brain cells are deprived oxygen and have a spasm. People with diabetes are two to four times more likely to have a stroke than people who do not have diabetes. When diabetic people have too much glucose in their blood, their cells don’t get enough energy. Over time, this can lead to increased fatty deposits or clots on the insides of the blood vessel walls. These clots can block the blood vessels in the brain or neck, cutting off the oxygen supply to the brain.

Your heart has to work harder when blood pressure is high and risk heart disease, stroke, and other problems go up.

how will you know:

you wont know when you have high blood pressure unless your health care provider checks your blood pressure. you should have your blood pressure checked every two years

Diabetic eye disease is a group of eye conditions that affect people with diabetes. These conditions include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic macular edema (DME), cataract, and glaucoma. Diabetic retinopathy involves changes to retinal blood vessels that could cause them to bleed or leak. Diabetic retinopathy is the most common cause of vision loss among people with diabetes. DME (Diabetic macular edema) is a consequence of diabetic retinopathy that causes swelling in the area of the retina called the macula. Cataract is a clouding of the eye’s lens. Adults with diabetes are, at most, 5 times more likely to develop cataract than those without diabetes . Cataract also tends to develop at an earlier age in people with diabetes.Glaucoma is a group of diseases that damage the eye’s optic nerve. The optic nerve is part of the eye and part of the central nervous system. Some types of glaucoma are associated with elevated pressure inside the eye. In most adults, diabetes practically doubles the possibility and risk of glaucoma. Studies like the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) have shown that controlling diabetes slows the worsening of diabetic retinopathy. DCCT study participants who kept their blood glucose level close to normal were significantly less likely than those without optimal glucose control to develop diabetic retinopathy, as well as kidney and nerve diseases. Other trials have shown that controlling elevated blood pressure and cholesterol can reduce the risk of vision loss among people with diabetes.

-Foot problems are most commonly caused by neuropathy. Neuropathy is nerve damage.
-Symptoms of neuropathy are tingling, pain, weakness and loss of feeling in the foot.
-Loss of feeling in the foot can cause you to be injured without notice. This will leave t even more damage.
-Diabetes can also cause skin damage, calluses, foot ulcers, and poor circulation in the feet.
-People with diabetes are more likely to have a foot or leg amputated. Blood flow to the feet is reduced because of peripheral arterial disease which can lead to infections. If the infections are severe enough, amputation may be necessary.
-The body systems effected by foot complications caused by diabetes are the circulatory system, integumentary system and the nervous system.

Structures Involved:
-Inner Ear: labrynth (hearing) and vestuble (balance)
-Middle Ear: takes sound waves and turns them into vibrations.
-Outer Ear: Pinna, collect vibrations like a funnel.
How These Structures are Affected:
-high glucose levels associated with diabetes cause damage to small blood vessels in the inner ear. this is because the blood vessels in the ear are small and when blood sugar is high, the blood is thicker. This then causes the blood vessels to enlarge and therefore cause problems in the ear.
-This could be prevented by maintaining your blood levels.

organs and structures involved:
gums, mouth, teeth

body systems involved:
digestive system, integumentary

oral health problems include:
- gingivitis (early stage of gum disease)
- periodontitus (severe stage of gum disease: if it gets too bad, you will need teeth removal or surgery to repair your mouth)
- thrush
- dry mouth (which can cause soreness, ulcers, infections, and cavities)

many diabetics have oral health problems, and having diabetes increases your chance of getting them. also, having oral health problems can make your diabetes worse. if blood glucose levels are poorly controlled, you are more likely to get oral health problems. diabetics also have a decreased ability to fight against the bacteria.

in order to prevent oral health disease, you have to control your blood glucose level, take good care of your gums/teeth, go to regular checkups every 6 months, avoid smoking, and (if you wear them) regularly remove/clean your dentures.

Relevant organs and structures involved:
- The stomach and nerves
The systems:
- Digestive system
The complications:
- It's hard for the body to empty the remaining food out of the stomach. It also damages the nerves.

# data[].attributes.body
Nerves involved- sensory nerves, motor nerves, automatic nerves.
Systems Involved- Nervous  System.
Relation to Diabetes- People with poorly controlled diabetes damage nerves because of high blood sugar levels.

Relevance: skin, integumentary system
Some diabetes related skin conditions include:
Acanthosis Nigricans:
- tan or brown skin appears on the side of neck, groin, and armpits.
Diabetic Dermopathy:
- changes in small blood vessels, light brown, scaly patches.
Necrobiosis Lipoidica Diabeticorum:
- dull, red, raised area
Other conditions are:
Allergic Reactions
Diabetic Blisters (Bullosis Diabeticorum)
Eruptive Xanthomatosis
Digital Sclerosis
Disseminated Granuloma Annulare
Maintaining and controlling diabetes and blood sugar levels can reduce inflammation and outbreaks of these conditions.

Organs involved:
Kidneys

Systems:
Urinary

High levels of blood sugar make the kidneys filter too much blood.

After awhile kidneys leak and valuable protein is lost

Large amounts of protein in urine is called microbuminuria.

You can prevent kidney disease by keeping blood sugar in target range.

Relevant Organs and Structures Involved:
- The brain, bloodstream.
Body Systems Involved:
- Nervous (mental stress, fight or flight response), endocrine (hormone secretion), circulatory (blood glucose levels).
The Correlation Between Stress and Diabetes:
- Many stress sources are long-term threats and can cause high blood glucose levels long term.
- Stress hormones can directly affect and alter blood glucose levels.
-  Physical stress (illness or injury) raises glucose levels.
- Diabetic people with high stress may forget to check their blood sugar or make healthy meals and take care of themselves, thus letting their glucose levels get out of control.
