Abstract

Diabetes mellitus is known as a general disturbance of glucose utilization at the cellular level. However, the precise pathomechanism is unclear, according to the 1985 classification of the WHO study Group1: Two (clinical) types of the disease—insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM)—have been used. The discovery and accessibility of the hormone insulin have fundamentally changed the outcome of the patients, but complications of the disease have become conspicuous; such as increased sensitivity of the organism against different infectious illnesses.
