Diabetes Mellitus
Diabetes Mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder characterized by elevated blood glucose levels resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action, or both. This leads to impaired carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. Uncontrolled diabetes can cause serious complications affecting the heart, kidneys, eyes, nerves, and blood vessels. Management typically involves lifestyle modifications, medication, and regular monitoring to maintain glycemic control and prevent long-term sequelae.
