| diabetic kidney disease | Kidney disease and resultant kidney function impairment due to the long standing effects of diabetes on the microvasculature (glomerulus) of the kidney. Features include increased urine protein and declining kidney function. Severe diabetic nephropathy can lead to kidney failure and end-stage renal disease. (27 Sep 1997) |

| diabetic lipaemia | Development of lactescent plasma upon ingestion of dietary lipids; a rare manifestation of uncontrolled diabetes mellitus caused by defective metabolism of dietary lipids and abolished by the administration of insulin. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diabetic myelopathy | <pathology> Degenerative changes in spinal cord tissue occurring as a complication of diabetes mellitus Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| diabetic nephropathies | Includes renal arteriosclerosis, renal arteriolosclerosis, kimmelstiel-wilson syndrome (intercapillary glomerulosclerosis), acute and chronic pyelonephritis, and kidney papillary necrosis in individuals with diabetes mellitus. (12 Dec 1998) |
| diabetic nephropathy | <nephrology, pathology> Kidney disease and resultant kidney function impairment due to the long standing effects of diabetes on the microvasculature (glomerulus) of the kidney. Features include increased urine protein and declining kidney function. Severe diabetic nephropathy can lead to kidney failure and end-stage renal disease. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| diabetic neuropathy | <neurology, pathology> Long standing or poorly controlled diabetes can cause permanent peripheral and autonomic nerve dysfunction known as diabetic neuropathy. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| diabetic patient | Diabetes mellitus is a disorder that is caused by the insufficient production of the pancreatic hormone insulin. Without insulin cells are unable to absorb glucose, necessary for cellular metabolism and energy production. Patients may have type I diabetes (juvenile onset) or type II diabetes (adult onset). Individuals with either condition are considered to be diabetic. (27 Sep 1997) |
| diabetic polyneuropathy | A distal, symmetrical, generally sensorimotor polyneuropathy that is a frequent complication of diabetes mellitus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diabetic puncture | A puncture at a point in the floor of the fourth ventricle of the brain which causes glycosuria. Synonym: Bernard's puncture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diabetic retinitis | See: diabetic retinopathy. (05 Mar 2000) |
| diabetic retinopathy | <ophthalmology, pathology> A major cause of blindness in diabetics. Retinal disease results from adverse effects on the blood vessels which supply the retina. Swollen retinal vessels which leak fluid into the retina are commonly seen on physical examination of the eyes. Poorly controlled insulin dependent diabetes and/or hypertension are the major risk factors. Symptoms include decreased vision and colour perception. Origin: Gr. Pathos = disease (27 Sep 1997) |
| diabetic ketoacidosis |
An emergency condition in which extremely high blood glucose levels, along with a severe lack of insulin, result in the breakdown of body fat for energy and an accumulation of ketones in the blood and urine. Signs of DKA are nausea and vomiting, stomach pain, fruity breath odour and rapid breathing. Untreated DKA can lead to coma and death.

| diabetic ketoacidosis |
A condition that occurs due to insufficient insulin in the body. This can be due to illness, incorrect doses of insulin, or omitting insulin injections. The acidic state that follows causes fruity smelling breath, deep and rapid breathing, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and sleepiness. DKA can lead to coma and death if not treated promptly.

| diabetic ketoacidosis |
High blood sugar values (above 300 mg/dL) with the presence of persistent large amounts of ketones will result in blood becoming "acidotic". In the absence of enough insulin, the body breaks down fat for energy and ketones develop. People with DKA usually complain of nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, rapid breathing, and sometimes a fruity odor on their breath. This is a medical emergency, requiring Emergency Room/Hospital admission.
