Abstract

Introduction

Diabetes mellitus is the commonest endocrine disease found in general population, as such diabetes mellitus is a syndrome (a collection of disorders of which hyperglycemia is the hallmark).

The disease is known from ancient time, Charka and Sushruta (600-400BC) of India recognized the disease and named it "Madhumeha" (rain of honey), having noted the sweetness of urine. The names diabetes (Siphon) was given by Aretaeus in the first century AD increase in blood sugar as a cardinal sign was first noted by Claude Bernard (1950).

The incidence for diabetes mellitus is much more common in India than Western counterpart hence data published on western population are not directly applicable to our own population. About 98% of our diabetic population belongs to NIDDM. The prevalence of NIDDM was first survey on the township in Kudermukh. In this urban population diabetes was present in 5% of people aged 20 years. The peak prevalence (41%) was in the group aged 55-64 years. This result further became stronger when Madras survey result was published.. The age adjusted prevalence of diabetes was 8.2% in the urban and 2.4% in rural population in Madras. Due to high incidence of diabetes in Indian it became like an epidemic disease. Because of this importance of NIDDM in Indian population we choose it for our study.
