| IDDM | Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus = Type I DM |
| chemical diabetes | A mild form of diabetes mellitus in which the patient displays no overt symptoms, but displays certain abnormal responses to diagnostic procedures, such as an elevated fasting blood glucose concentration or reduced glucose tolerance. Synonym: chemical diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |

| metahypophysial diabetes | Diabetes mellitus caused by large quantities of endogenous or exogenous pituitary growth hormone, term used to designate the irreversible phase of diabetes mellitus in acromegaly. (05 Mar 2000) |
| growth-onset diabetes | A chronic condition in which the pancreas makes little or no insulin because the beta cells have been destroyed. The body is then not able to use the glucose (blood sugar) for energy. IDDM usually comes on abruptly, although the damage to the beta cells may begin much earlier. The signs of IDDM are a great thirst, hunger, a need to urinate often, and loss of weight. To treat the disease, the person must inject insulin, follow a diet plan, exercise daily, and test blood glucose several times a day. IDDM usually occurs in children and adults who are under age 30. This type of diabetes used to be known as juvenile diabetes, juvenile-onset diabetes, and ketosis-prone diabetes. (09 Oct 1997) |
| phlorizin diabetes | The presence of sugar in the urine after the experimental administration of phlorizin, which results in a lower renal threshold for glucose reabsorption of glucose. Synonym: phlorizin diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| phosphate diabetes | Excessive secretion of phosphate in the urine due to a defect in tubular reabsorption; usually part of a more generalised abnormality, such as Fanconi syndrome. (05 Mar 2000) |
| piqure diabetes | Experimental diabetes produced in animals by puncture of the floor of the fourth ventricle of the brain. Synonym: piqure diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Mosler's diabetes | Inosituria with excretion of large quantities of water. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pregnancy diabetes | See: subclinical diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| puncture diabetes | Experimental diabetes produced in animals by puncture of the floor of the fourth ventricle of the brain. Synonym: piqure diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| starvation diabetes | After prolonged fasting, glycosuria following the ingestion of carbohydrate or glucose because of reduced output of insulin and/or reduced rate of glucose metabolism with a reduced ability to form glycogen. (05 Mar 2000) |
| nephrogenic diabetes insipidus | Diabetes insipidus due to inability of the kidney tubules to respond to antidiuretic hormone; X-linked inheritance, with full expression in males and partial defect in heterozygous females. Synonym: vasopressin-resistant diabetes. (05 Mar 2000) |
| steroid diabetes | Diabetes mellitus produced by pharmacological doses of steroid hormones, particularly glucocorticoids or oestrogens; characterised by one or more of the typical manifestations of diabetes mellitus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| steroidogenic diabetes | Abnormal glucose tolerance, often frank diabetes mellitus, induced by the metabolic effects of adrenocortical steroid hormones such as cortisone or therapeutic analogues such as prednisone. The effect may be temporary, resolving when the steroid therapy is discontinued, or diabetes mellitus may persist. (05 Mar 2000) |
| subclinical diabetes | A form of diabetes mellitus that is clinically evident only under certain circumstances, such as pregnancy or extreme stress; persons so afflicted may, in time, manifest more severe forms of the disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus | <disease> An often mild form of diabetes mellitus of gradual onset, usually in obese individuals over age 35; absolute plasma insulin levels are normal to high, but relatively low in relation to plasma glucose levels; ketoacidosis is rare, but hyperosmolar coma can occur; responds well to dietary regulation and/or oral hypoglycaemic agents, but diabetic complications and degenerative changes can develop.
