The drugs recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics for use in children with diabetes (depending upon type of diabetes) are:
 
  1. Metformin and insulin
  2. Sulfonylureas and insulin glargine
  3. Split-mixed dose insulin and GPL-1 agonists
  4. Biguanides and insulin lispro

Question 2

Unlike most type 2 diabetics where obesity is a major issue, older adults with low body weight have higher risks for morbidity and mortality. The most reliable indicator of poor nutritional status in older adults is:
 
  1. Weight loss in previously overweight persons
  2. Involuntary loss of 10 of body weight in less than 6 months
  3. Decline in lean body mass over a 12-month period
  4. Increase in central versus peripheral body adiposity

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
