#REDIRECT Diabetes mellitus
:''See diabetes mellitus for further general information on diabetes.'' Diabetes mellitus type 2 (formerly Diabetes mellitus type II and also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes, NIDDM or adult-onset diabetes) is a metabolism disorder. The onset of the disease is most common in middle age and old age. It can usually be controlled by diet (nutrition) and exercise, and unlike ''diabetes mellitus type 1'' (juvenile diabetes) it often does not necessitate the use of insulin injections, because insulin production in the pancreas is still possible, although impaired. The term non-insulin-dependent is a misnomer - some patients must start insulin therapy some time in the course of their disease. Diabetes mellitus type 2 is often associated with obesity and hypertension, and with the conditions insulin resistance and Polycystic ovary syndrome or Metabolic syndrome. It is also associated with haemochromatosis, acromegaly, Cushing's syndrome and a number of other endocrinology disorders. Endocrinology Diabetes
What is the 'big' difference between type 1 and 2? i understand most of it is because of the insulin intake but i'm very confused@ In brief: Type I results from an inability to produce insulin. Type II results from an insensitivity of cells to whatever insulin is produced. - User:Nunh-huh 22:08, 8 Mar 2004 (UTC) Sometimes I wonder how the ''Diabetes'' pages should be organised. I'm in favour of separate pages for Type I and Type II, because they're hugely different diseases. * Diabetes (disambiguation) * Diabetes Mellitus (disambiguation) * Diabetes Mellitus Type 1 * Diabetes Mellitus Type 2 * Complications of diabetes ** Diabetic nephropathy ** Diabetic retinopathy ** Diabetic neuropathy ** Atherosclerosis in diabetes ** Diabetic encephalopathy * Diabetology and Diabetologist Any ideas?
