Dear Editor,
Diabetes is believed to be a leading issue
worldwide. It disables and kills people at most of
their productive age, depriving households or
decreasing elderly people life expectancy. Diabetes
is one of the major threats which does not consider
social class and borders. None of the countries of
the world is protected from diabetes while the
endemic is anticipated to continue. Disease burden
depletes health care budget, slows financial growth,
decreases productivity, causes disastrous
expenditure for susceptible families and devastates
health care systems1
. Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a
metabolic disorder associated with disturbances to
protein, fat metabolism and carbohydrate resulting
from complete or relative deficiency of insulin with
malfunction in the organ systems of body2
. The
word DM is taken from diabainen and its meaning
is ‘to pass through’ while mellitus meaning is
“sweet”. This narrates passing of the “sweetened”
urine. DM could be due to pancreas failure that
makes insulin (type-1 diabetes) or due to faults in
the insulin action such as faults in the insulin
sensitivity and inequality between pancreatic
supply and insulin physiological demand that are
frequent in gestational and type-2 diabetes
