The Complexity of Diabetes Mellitus

Bala Nilratan

Diabetes mellitus, a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels, has evolved into a global health epidemic of staggering proportions. This abstract provides an overview of the intricate web of factors that contribute to the complexity of diabetes mellitus. The pathogenesis of diabetes mellitus encompasses a multifaceted interplay of genetic predisposition, lifestyle choices, and environmental influences. Genetic susceptibility factors, including polymorphisms in numerous genes, contribute to an individual's risk of developing diabetes. However, these genetic factors alone do not account for the alarming rise in diabetes prevalence observed worldwide. Lifestyle choices, such as poor dietary habits, sedentary behavior, and obesity, play a pivotal role in the development of type 2 diabetes.
