Diabetes

Taxonomy Code: YF-3000.2440

A disorder in which the pancreas produces too little insulin with the result that the body is unable to adequately metabolize sugar.

Complications of diabetes if left untreated include low resistance to infections leading to a susceptibility to gangrene, cardiovascular and kidney disorders, disturbances in the electrolyte balance and eye disorders, some of which may lead to blindness.
