Facts about diabetes Insulin secretion profile

Diabetes – the inability to manage blood sugar levels appropriately

1 Diabetes fact sheet N˚312, WHO, October 2013 2 Polonsky et al. J Clin Invest 1988;81:442–48

Investor presentation First six months of 2015

Diabetes is a chronic disease that occurs either when the pancreas does not produce enough insulin or when the body cannot effectively use the insulin it produces1

Primary classifications2:

Type 1 diabetes: Complete insulin deficiency due to destruction of beta-cells in pancreas

Type 2 diabetes: Characterised by some degree of insulin resistance and insulin deficiency

Locations Consequences of bleedings

Haemophilia: Location of bleedings and the consequences

Investor presentation First six months of 2015

• Bleeding in the joint space causes a strong inflammatory reaction which predisposes to further bleeding

• Inadequate or delayed treatment of repeated joint bleeds results in a “target joint”

• The joint is tense, swollen and extremely painful and the mobility is restricted

• Eventually the cartilage erodes completely and permanent joint damage (arthropathy) occurs

• Treatment of arthropathy is orthopaedic surgery
