diabetes

Definition von diabetes im Englisch Englisch wörterbuch: The inability of the body to produce, or the inability to metabolize, the human hormone insulin; Diabetes insipidus, usually a disorder of the pituitary gland, leading to a form of type II diabetes; {n} an involuntary discharge of urine; A chronic disorder of carbohydrate (sugar) metabolism due to a disturbance of the normal insulin production process; A disease where insulin, a hormone produced in the pancreas, does not transport glucose effectively from the bloodstream Diabetics have to inject insulin so that the body can get enough glucose; Abnormally elevated blood sugar "Diabetes" was first used in medicine to describe patients with voluminous urine production Patients with "a diabetes" appeared to drink large volumes of water and pass it immediately into urine Diabetes now refers exclusively to diabetes mellitus, a form of diabetes in which the urine is sweet (mellitus means "honey") With the discovery that patients with diabetes (sugary urine) always had elevated blood sugar, the disease was redefined in terms of blood sugar, measured either fasting or during the period following a meal Thus diabetes is abnormally elevated blood sugar; A condition in which the body does not produce or respond to insulin a hormone produced by your body, which allows blood sugar or glucose into your body's cells for energy; Sometimes called "sugar," diabetes is a potentially very serious condition that can affect the entire body It especially affects the tiniest blood vessels in the body, which is why eye care is so important for the diabetic By the time a mild case of diabetes is diagnosed, a degree of eye damage already may have occurred! Good blood-sugar management and regular eye checkups, in partnership with your primary care physician or internist, can preserve your vision so that blindness need not be a worry Be aware that there is no such thing as "a touch of diabetes"; it is a lifelong condition that needs your attention; an abnormal state of health marked by insulin is deficient and the urine and blood contain excess sugar; Diabetes Insipidus Usually a disorder of the pituitary gland, leading to a form of Type II diabetes; Diabetes is a medical condition in which someone has too much sugar in their blood. a serious disease in which there is too much sugar in your blood (from diabainein ); A disease associated with the absence or reduced levels of insulin, a hormone produced by the pancreas that is essential for the transport of glucose to cells; Diabetes is a disorder in which the body cannot convert foods properly into the energy needed for daily activities Diabetes tends to get passed on genetically but factors other than heredity are responsible as well There are two main types of diabetes Type I, or insulin-dependent, is the more severe for of the disease Type II, or adult onset, is the more common form and accounts for more than 85% of all cases Diabetes cannot be cured, but it can be controlled Control requires carefully regulating one's diet, regular exercise, and, if necessary, insulin; A disease which is attended with a persistent, excessive discharge of urine; A chronic health condition where the body is unable to produce insulin and properly breakdown sugar (glucose) in the blood Symptoms include hunger, thirst, excessive urination, dehydration and weight loss The treatment of diabetes requires daily insulin injections, proper nutrition and regular exercise Complications can include heart disease, stroke, neuropathy, poor circulation leading to loss of limbs, hearing impairment, vision problems and death; Most frequently the urine is not only increased in quantity, but contains saccharine matter, in which case the disease is generally fatal; {i} disease in which the body's ability to metabolize sugar is impaired; —General term usually referring to diabetes mellitus, a state of inadequate insulin production; A condition in which the body can't use carbohydrates well It is caused by a complete (type 1 diabetes) or relative (type 2 diabetes) deficiency of the hormone insulin, which acts as the "key" that allows sugar to enter cells Without enough insulin, glucose (sugar) remains in the blood and can't enter the cells to provide energy; A condition that causes your body to make little insulin or not use insulin properly; A disorder of glucose metabolism where there is not enough insulin to regulate blood sugar levels Or, where insulin is present, but the cells do not respond to it properly; A condition/disease caused by the body's inability to process sugar, usually due to a lack of insulin; A condition in which the body is unable to control blood sugar (glucose) levels For a much more detailed description in our medical info section, click here; a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin Insulin is a hormone that is needed to convert sugar, starches and other food into energy; A condition characterized by high blood sugar resulting from the body's inability to use sugar (glucose) efficiently In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas is not able to make enough insulin; in type 2 diabetes, the body is resistant to the effects of available insulin Diabetes is one of the leading causes of kidney disease; Diabetes Type II The inability of the body to metabolize the human hormone insulin; Metabolic disease in which carbohydrate use is reduced due to inadequate production or use of insulin, resulting in elevated levels of glucose (sugar) in the blood and urine; can lead to heart disease and other complications; A chronic, metabolic disorder where a lack of insulin secretion and /or increased cellular resistance to insulin results in elevated blood levels of glucose Complications due to diabetes can include damage to the eyes, kidneys, nervous system and vascular system; any of several metabolic disorders marked by excessive urination and persistent thirst; a disease characterized by excessive urination Diabetes mellitus is caused by insufficient insulin production or lack of responsiveness to insulin, resulting in hyperglycemia (high blood glucose levels) There are 2 primary types of diabetes mellitus, type I (insulin-dependent or juvenile-onset), which may be caused by an autoimmune response, and type II (non-insulin-dependent or adult-onset) Diabetes insipidus is typically due to hormonal dysregulation; A disease associated with the absence or reduced levels of insulin, a hormone essential for the transport of glucose to cells; Diabetes Type I The inability of the body to produce the human hormone insulin; A metabolic disease resulting in high blood sugar and potentially leading to damage of the arteries, eyes, kidneys and nerves; also known as diabetes mellitus; A disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin; High blood sugar Also called diabetes mellitus Diabetes can occur when your body doesn't make enough insulin to keep your blood sugar controlled This is called Type I diabetes In overweight individuals, diabetes is often caused by insulin resistance, where insulin levels may be elevated, but the body's tissues are resistant to its effects This is also known as Type II diabetes; A condition that causes your body to make little or no insulin or to not use insulin properly
diabetes insipidus: A disease characterized by excretion of large amount of severely diluted urine, which cannot be reduced when fluid intake is reduced. It is generally related to a tumor or insult to the pituitary gland, where the hormonal signals the pituitary gives to the kidneys break down, and the kidneys do not conserve water, but express all water as urine. This is a rather rare disease
diabetes mellitus: A medical disorder characterized by varying or persistent hyperglycemia, especially after eating
diabetes diet: low-sugar diet especially for one who has diabetes (disease in which the body's ability to metabolize sugar is impaired)
diabetes insipidus: a problem with water balance in the body causing excess urine production and great thirst, due to pituitary-hypothalamic damage in the brain Ordinary diabetes, which has the same symptoms, is due to insufficient insulin production by the pancreas
diabetes insipidus: a rare form of diabetes resulting from a deficiency of vasopressin (the pituitary hormone that regulates the kidneys); characterized by the chronic excretion of large amounts of pale dilute urine which results in dehydration and extreme thirst
diabetes insipidus: the most serious type of diabetes; diabetes insipidus is caused by lesions in the hypothalamus or between the pituitary gland and the hypothalamus
diabetes insipidus: Endocrine disorder causing extreme thirst and excessive production of very dilute urine, apparently due to lack of antidiuretic hormone (vasopressin, which regulates the kidney's water conservation and urine production) or failure of the kidney tubules to respond to it. Injections of synthetic vasopressin are effective if the hormone is lacking but not if the response is absent. Disorders of the hypothalamus are one cause of diabetes insipidus
diabetes insipidus: A condition in which blurred vision and a central scotomo (blind spot) appear in one eye It is treated with the hormone vasopressin
diabetes insipidus: a condition characterized by frequent and heavy urination, excessive thirst, and an overall feeling of weakness This condition may be caused by a defect in the pituitary gland or in the kidney In diabetes insipidus, blood glucose levels are normal
diabetes insipidus: a disorder of the pituitary gland characterized by intense thirst and by the excretion of large amounts of urine
diabetes insipidus: Excretion of large amounts of urine of low specific gravity The inability to concentrate urine
diabetes mellitus: A type of diabetes where the body is unable to use sugar (carbohydrates) properly as an energy source
diabetes mellitus: Diabetes, a common disease in which one's blood sugar is not appropriately controlled It is a risk factor for coronary artery disease among other conditions There are two primary types of diabetes mellitus known as type 1 and type 2 diabetes Please contact the American Diabetes Association for more information on diabetes
diabetes mellitus: (dye-uh-BEE-teez) A disease that occurs when the body is not able to use blood glucose (sugar) Blood sugar levels are controlled by insulin, a hormone in the body that helps move glucose (sugar) from the blood to muscles and other tissues Diabetes occurs when the pancreas does not make enough insulin or the body does not respond to the insulin that is made There are two main types of diabetes mellitus: type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes [See definitions]
diabetes mellitus: a variable disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors and usually characterized by an inadequate secretion of insulin by the pancreas or proper utilization of the available insulin, by excessive urine production, by excessive amounts of sugar in the blood and urine, and by thirst, hunger, and loss of weight; type I (juvenile) diabetes mellitus: insulin-dependent diabetes; type II (adult-onset) diabetes mellitus: non-insulin-dependent diabetes; can cause neovascularization (new blood vessel growth) in the retina (retinitis proliferans), resulting in fragile blood vessels which can bleed into the vitreous humor and lead to severe visual impairment or blindness
diabetes mellitus: (dye-uh-BEE-teez)
diabetes mellitus: A condition (also known as sugar diabetes or simply as diabetes) in which there is too much sugar in the blood Whether this type of diabetes is controlled by insulin, tablets or diet, it can cause kidney failure This happens most often to people who have had diabetes for longer than ten years
diabetes mellitus: disorder that prevents the body from converting digested food into the energy needed for daily activities
diabetes mellitus: a variable disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors and usu Characterized by inadequate secretion or utilization of insulin, by excessive urine production, by excessive amounts of sugar in the blood and urine, and by thirst, hunger, and loss of weight see INSULIN-DEPENDENT DIABETES MELLITUS, NON-INSULIN-DEPENDENT DIABETES MELLITUS
diabetes mellitus: disease in which the body's ability to metabolize sugar is impaired
diabetes mellitus: A chronic condition that results from the body’s inability to sufficiently produce and/or properly use insulin
diabetes mellitus: A disease where the body does not use sugar as it should The body needs sugar for growth and energy and it gets sugar from food A hormone called insulin is needed for the sugar to be taken to the cells for energy Diabetes is what happens when the pancreas isn’t able to make enough insulin for the cells to use There are two main types of diabetes mellitus
diabetes mellitus: diabetes caused by a relative or absolute deficiency of insulin and characterized by polyuria; "when doctors say `diabetes' they usually mean `diabetes mellitus'
diabetes mellitus: Disease that enhances blood glucose levels due to lack of insulin
diabetes mellitus: Disorder of insufficient production of or reduced sensitivity to insulin. Insulin, synthesized in the islets of Langerhans (see Langerhans, islets of), is necessary to metabolize glucose. In diabetes, blood sugar levels increase (hyperglycemia). Excess sugar is excreted in the urine (glycosuria). Symptoms include increased urine output, thirst, weight loss, and weakness. Type 1, or insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), an autoimmune disease in which no insulin is produced, must be treated by insulin injections. Type 2, or non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM), in which tissues do not respond to insulin, is linked to heredity and obesity and may be controlled by diet; it accounts for 90% of all cases, many of which go undiagnosed for years. Untreated diabetes leads to accumulation of ketones in the blood, followed by acidosis (high blood acid content) with nausea and vomiting and then coma. Careful attention to content and timing of meals, with periodic checking of blood sugar, may manage diabetes. If not, injected or oral insulin is necessary. Complications, including heart disease, diabetic retinopathy (a leading cause of blindness), kidney disease, and nerve disorders, especially in the legs and feet, account for most deaths. Degree of blood-sugar control does not always correlate with progression of complications. Gestational diabetes may occur as a complication of pregnancy
diabetes mellitus: a condition characterized by hyperglycemia resulting from the body's inability to use blood glucose for energy In type 1 diabetes, the pancreas no longer makes insulin and therefore blood glucose cannot enter the cells to be used for energy In type 2 diabetes, either the pancreas does not make enough insulin or the body is unable to use insulin correctly
diabetes mellitus: a variable disorder of carbohydrate metabolism caused by a combination of hereditary and environmental factors and usually characterized by inadequate secretion or utilization of insulin, by excessive urine production, by excessive amounts of sugar in the blood and urine, and by thirst, hunger, and loss of weight
diabetes mellitus: a chronic disease in which the body is unable to convert carbohydrates, fats, and proteins into energy due to inadequate use or production of insulin The two types of diabetes are Type I diabetes mellitus and Type II Diabetes mellitus
diabetes mellitus: -A metabolic disease caused by an absolute or a relative deficiency of insulin, a hormone that controls how the body processes glucose, protein, and fats When the body's insulin supply is decreased, it cannot process carbohydrates and it compensates by overprocessing fats and protein The condition is characterized by chronic high blood sugar and sugar in the urine Diabetes mellitus can result in coma Over time, complications can include nerve injury, blindness, kidney failure, and premature atherosclerosis with all of its complications
diabetes mellitus: a disease in which the body's ability to use sugar is weakened
diabetes mellitus: People with this disease have a high amount of sugar in their blood (which is known as hyperglycemia); they can become permanently blind from swelling, bleeding, and/or abnormal blood vessel growth in the back of the eyes
