Diabetes mellitus is an extremely common disease that is reaching epidemic proportions owing to major increases in the incidence of obesity and the propensity for a sedentary life.
This is an updated new edition of Dr. I.N. Scobie's highly acclaimed full-color atlas-text on the signs and symptoms of diabetes mellitus and its treatment. The atlas features over 100 excellent color plates illustrating the signs and symptoms of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) and non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM) and their treatment. The book contains an instructive review section that covers IDDM and NIDDM pathogenesis; treatments with diet, insulin, and drugs; acute complications of hypoglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis, and hyperosmolar non-ketoacidotic coma; chronic complications of diabetic retinopathy, nephropathy, and neuropathy, major vascular disease, hypertension, and the diabetic foot; and diabetes and pregnancy. Detailed captions for each illustration enhance the book's value as an atlas-text for teaching, residency training, and clinical practice. Includes bibliographic references and index.
