It could be more distinct to classify based on clinical characteristics, demographics and progression of complications in individuals. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with hyperglycemia and risk for developing other complications like hypertension, neuropathy, nephropathy and retinopathy etc. Many pathophysiological pathways for diabetes are driven by various environmental and genetic factors. These factors may affect the function of - cells. The loss of mass and function of -cells are key factors for all forms of diabetes. Early identification, proper diagnosis and lifestyle management will help to reduce the onset of diabetes and maintain a healthy nation.
