Summary

Diabetes mellitus is a group of metabolic diseases characterized by chronic hyperglycemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both.

According to American Diabetes Association diabetes can be classified into the following general categories: Type one diabetes (due to beta cell destruction, usually leading to absolute insulin deficiency), Type two diabetes (due to a progressive insulin secretory defect on the background of insulin resistance), Gestational diabetes mellitus and specific types of diabetes due to other causes, example monogenic diabetes syndromes (such as neonatal diabetes and maturity-onset diabetes of the young, diseases of the exocrine pancreas, and drug induced diabetes.
