According to the regulations of the World Health Organization (WHO) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF), diabetes can be divided into the following four types according to the different causes and clinical manifestations.
1 type diabetes mellitus
Also known as insulin-dependent diabetes, it can occur at any age, usually in children and adolescents. 1 The exact cause of diabetes is unknown. Patients with acute onset, absolute lack of insulin in the body, prone to ketoacidosis, must be treated with insulin to achieve satisfactory results, otherwise it will be life-threatening. It is generally necessary to inject insulin for treatment.
Type 2 diabetes mellitus
Also known as non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, it mostly occurs in adults. The onset is slow and hidden, ketoacidosis is not easy to occur, and insulin is not necessarily used. These patients account for more than 95% of the total number of diabetic patients in China. At present, the sharp increase in the total number of diabetic patients is mainly the result of the rapid increase of such patients.
Gestational diabetes mellitus
Gestational diabetes refers to diabetes that occurs or is found during pregnancy, which is caused by insulin resistance of cells, but its insulin resistance is caused by hormones secreted by pregnant women. Gestational diabetes usually heals itself after delivery.
Other special types of diabetes
All kinds of diabetes except 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes include diabetes caused by pancreatic diseases, diabetes caused by endocrine diseases, diabetes accompanied by various genetic diseases and diabetes caused by drugs. There are many kinds of diabetes, but the number of patients is far less than that of type 2 diabetes.
