Disease ID | Source | Name | Description |
612225 | OMIM | Maturity-onset diabetes of the young 9 (MODY9) | A form of diabetes that is characterized by an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance, onset in childhood or early adulthood (usually before 25 years of age), a primary defect in insulin secretion and frequent insulin-independence at the beginning of the disease. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
612227 | OMIM | Diabetes mellitus, ketosis-prone (KPD) | An atypical form of diabetes mellitus characterized by an acute initial presentation with severe hyperglycemia and ketosis, as seen in classic type 1 diabetes, but after initiation of insulin therapy, prolonged remission is often possible with cessation of insulin therapy and maintenance of appropriate metabolic control. Metabolic studies show a markedly blunted insulin secretory response to glucose, partially reversible with the improvement of blood glucose control. Variable levels of insulin resistance are observed, especially in obese patients. Pancreatic beta-cell autoimmunity is a rare finding. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
125853 | OMIM | Diabetes mellitus, non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) | A multifactorial disorder of glucose homeostasis caused by a lack of sensitivity to the body's own insulin. Affected individuals usually have an obese body habitus and manifestations of a metabolic syndrome characterized by diabetes, insulin resistance, hypertension and hypertriglyceridemia. The disease results in long-term complications that affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
222100 | OMIM | Diabetes mellitus, insulin-dependent (IDDM) | A multifactorial disorder of glucose homeostasis that is characterized by susceptibility to ketoacidosis in the absence of insulin therapy. Clinical features are polydipsia, polyphagia and polyuria which result from hyperglycemia-induced osmotic diuresis and secondary thirst. These derangements result in long-term complications that affect the eyes, kidneys, nerves, and blood vessels. Disease susceptibility is associated with variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. |
