Diabetes mellitus is a chronic disease of absolute or relative
insulin deficiency or resistance characterised by disturbances in
carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. It is estimated that
between 5-10 per cent of the population suffer from this disease.
This syndrome is a contributing factor in a large percentage of
deaths from heart attacks and strokes as well as renal failure and
vascular disease. About 90 per cent of the cases of diabetes
mellitus fall into Type 2 where obesity plays a major role.
Research in the field is wide-spread ranging from causes to
treatment. This book brings together leading research from
throughout the world.
