Sample Questions

Question 1
A 9-year-old presents with polyuria, polydipsia, and 5 kg weight loss over 3 weeks. Glucose is 412 mg/dL, pH 7.18, HCO3 10, ketones large, and islet autoantibodies are positive for GAD65, IA2, and ZnT8. Which statement best characterizes the immunologic basis of this disease?
Amyloid deposition within islets impairing insulin secretion
Autoantibody-mediated complement lysis of beta cells
T-cell mediated autoimmune destruction of pancreatic beta cells, with autoantibodies serving as disease markers rather than the primary effectors
Congenital agenesis of the dorsal pancreatic anlage
Question 2
A 12-year-old with newly diagnosed T1DM is discharged on a basal-bolus regimen. Which insulin pairing correctly represents a modern MDI regimen?
Detemir plus regular insulin as needed for hyperglycemia only
NPH twice daily plus regular insulin at meals
Glargine plus NPH at bedtime
Glargine or detemir once/twice daily plus aspart, lispro, or glulisine at meals
Question 3
Which statement about the 'honeymoon phase' of type 1 diabetes is most accurate?
It represents transient partial beta-cell recovery after diagnosis, during which insulin requirements fall below 0.5 U/kg/day
It is permanent and indicates spontaneous cure of T1DM
It occurs only in adults with latent autoimmune diabetes
It is characterized by complete loss of endogenous C-peptide
Question 4
A 7-year-old in DKA presents with glucose 520 mg/dL, pH 7.05, HCO3 6, Na 132, K 5.4, and BUN 28. Per ISPAD/PES guidelines, which initial fluid strategy is most appropriate?
10 mL/kg isotonic saline bolus over 30-60 minutes if needed, then replace deficit over 24-48 hours with maintenance; avoid cumulative fluids >40 mL/kg in the first 4 hours
Aggressive 40 mL/kg bolus over 1 hour followed by D5 half-normal saline at 2x maintenance
Fluid restriction to two-thirds maintenance to prevent cerebral edema
Bolus with D10 half-normal saline to treat hyperglycemia
Question 5
In pediatric DKA management, what is the recommended insulin infusion rate and the rationale for avoiding an initial insulin bolus?
0.01 U/kg/hr infusion with no dose adjustment until ketosis resolves
0.3 U/kg bolus followed by 0.3 U/kg/hr infusion to rapidly normalize glucose
0.05-0.1 U/kg/hr continuous; avoid bolus because it does not improve outcomes and increases risk of hypokalemia and rapid osmolar shifts
Subcutaneous rapid-acting insulin every 2 hours with no continuous infusion
