Diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of peripheral neuropathy in the United States. Approximately half of all diabetics demonstrate evidences of neuropathy. The usual clinical pattern is that of a slowly progressive, mixed sensorimotor and autonomic polyneuropathy. More acute, asymmetrical motor neuropathies are also seen, usually affecting the lumbosacral plexus, particularly in older persons with type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus. Patients with diabetes mellitus are also prone to develop isolated palsies of cranial nerve III or VII, and there is a high incidence of asymptomatic focal demyelin-ation in the distal median nerve.

Finally, insulin resistance is present in disease states other than type 2 diabetes mellitus. Patients with conditions such as hypertension, obesity, and certain hyperlipidemias are also found to have decreased tissue sensitivity to circulating insulin.19,72 As discussed in Chapter 21, a combination of these abnormalities is often described as metabolic syndrome, or syndrome X.127,128 Metabolic syndrome occurs when insulin resistance, high blood pressure, abdominal... 

Depression and Diabetes Mellitus. Patients with chronic medical illness have a high prevalence of major depressive disorder [59], Depression may be three times more prevalent in the diabetic population when compared with its occurrence in nondiabetic individuals [60], In addition, microalbuminuria, hypertension, and hyperinsulinemia are another three independent risk factors for cardiac disease in non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) [61], Nosadini et al. showed that peripheral insulin resistance, hypertension, microalbuminuria, and lipid abnormalities are associated with NIDDM [61], Further, Helkala et al. determined that cognitive and memory dysfunction are associated with NIDDM and explored the disease s relationship with depression, metabolic control, and serum lipids. The results showed that the NIDDM patients had impaired control of their learning processes [62], Obviously, future research examining the causal relationship of depression to the onset on diabetes and the effect of depression on the natural course of diabetes is needed [60].

Insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus patients lack the pancreatic function that releases insulin in response to blood glucose levels. These patients require daily self-injections of an appropriate amount of insulin that helps them to avoid hyperglycemia. Diabetic patients suffer from a gradual decline in the efficiency of various organs, leading to vision loss and long-term diseases. Severe conditions may even...
