Synonyms Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus ; Type 2 diabetes Definition In type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D), high blood glucose (or hyperglycemia) is the result of the pancreas producing insufficient quantities of insulin due to beta-cell dysfunction, as well as insulin resistance. Peripheral ...
Type 2 diabetes is a chronic medical condition that results inhyperglycemia. Treatment with medication and lifestyle changes helps to achieve glycemic control and prevent complications of diabetes. This can delay or prevent the need for insulin therapy. While some studies suggest that dietary supplement...
T2DM is a progressive disease with a gradual increase in insulin resistance associated later with a decline in insulin secretion with fasting hyperglycemia. Prevalence of T2DM in children is mostly linked to some risk factors: obesity and sedentary lifestyle, puberty, membership of ethnic minorities,...
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is a disease characterized by heterogeneously progressive loss of islet β cell insulin secretion usually occurring after the presence of insulin resistance (IR) and it is one component of metabolic syndrome (MS), and we named it me
When you take more than one drug to control your type 2 diabetes, that’s called combination therapy. You and your doctor should work together to find the best mix for you. Some drugs control blood sugar spikes (also called hyperglycemia) that come right after meals, for instance. Others ...
In patients with diabetes, the absence of insufficient production of or lack of response to insulin causes hyperglycemia. Diabetes is a chronic medical condition, meaning that although it can be controlled, it lasts a lifetime. Which country has the highest diabetes rate? Diabetes has emerged as...

Type 2 diabetes is a chronic disease affecting the ability to process blood sugar. Reviewed by a board-certified endocrinologist.
Summary:Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a heterogeneous disorder with genetic and acquired components. It is primarily due to impaired insulin secretion in that individuals with genetically impaired beta cell function cannot increase their insulin release sufficiently to compensate for insulin resistance. The ...
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and Clear-cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) are both complicated diseases which incidence rates gradually increasing. Population based studies show that severity of ccRCC might be associated with T2D. However, so far, no researcher yet investigated about the molecular mechanisms...
