4、ases that lead to high blood glucose levels due to defects in either insulin secretion or insulin action in the body.,Diabetes develops due to a diminished production of insulin(in type1)or resistance to its effects(in type2 and gestational).Both lead to hyperglycemia,which largely causes the acute
5、signs of diabetes:excessive urine production,resulting compensatory thirst and increased fluid intake,blurred vision,unexplained weight loss,lethargy,and changes in energy metabolism.,All forms of diabetes have been treatable since insulin became medically available in 1921,but there is no cure.The

8、and may be subtle or completely absent.,Type1 diabetes may also cause a rapid yet significant weight loss(despite normal or even increased eating)and irreducible mental fatigue.All of these symptoms except weight loss can also manifest in type2 diabetes in patients whose diabetes is poorly controlle
9、d.,Overview of the most significant symptoms of diabetes.,Both type 1 and type 2 diabetes share similar symptoms caused by chronically high blood glucose levels.Symptoms of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes include:excessive thirst frequent urination weight loss increased appetite unexplained fatigue

17、t by the year 2030,this number will almost double.Diabetes mellitus occurs throughout the world,but is more common(especially type2)in the more developed countries.The greatest increase in prevalence is,however,expected to occur in Asia and Africa,where most patients will likely be found by 2030.,Th
18、e increase in incidence of diabetes in developing countries follows the trend of urbanization and lifestyle changes,perhaps most importantly a Western-style diet.This has suggested an environmental(i.e.,dietary)effect,but there is little understanding of the mechanism at present,though there is much
