Abstract

Recent advances in pathological and clinical studies of diabetes indicate that at least some of the more important complications of this disease may have a common underlying cause, namely, a vascular degeneration. There is already an extensive literature referring to retinopathy, intercapillary glomerulosclerosis, peripheral neuritis and generalised athero-sclerosis in diabetes; their inter-relationship has been repeatedly emphasised and it is suggested that they should be regarded as different manifestations of the same underlying pathology.

Dedicated to Professor J. Meller.

Received for publication, May 9, 1949.
