Diabetes as a Chronic Disease. Causes and Effects of Diabetes on Organ Systems
Scientific Essay from the year 2017 in the subject Medicine - Pathology, grade: 1, Egerton University, language: English, abstract: Overall, diabetes comprises of several metabolic disorders that are characterized with the phenotype of hyperglycemia. This chronic disease is believed to be causes by a complex interaction of environmental factors, genetics and life-style choices (Tabish, 2007). However, it is worth noting that the causes exhibit variation depending with the type of diabetes. As such, a common diabetes cause for all the types of the illness has not yet been identified. Therefore, causes of diabetes can be said to be specific to each type of the disease, as well as the genetic nature of individuals. For instance, causes of type 1 diabetes differ considerably from those of type 2 diabetes. Similarly, the causes of gestational diabetes are distinct from those of other types of diabetes. Overall, the causes can be grouped depending with the type of diabetes involved. Therefore, this paper provides a comprehensive review on the causes and effects of diabetes on body systems.
