Abstract

Malnutrition related diabetes mellitus (MRDM) is similar to that of type 1 diabetes but it develops over a background of chronic malnutrition from childhood and restricted to developing countries. This type of diabetes was added by the world Health Organization for the first time in 1985 to the classification of diabetes, and although deleted from the latest classification put forward by American Society of Diabetes in 1997 but still it is being reported from some parts of the third world countries. The prevalence of this type of diabetes in children and adolescences with diabetes ranges from about 0-80% in various reports.This study was designed in order to determine the prevalence of MRDM in children and adolescences with diabetes mellitus in Tehran province. We studied 405 subjects aged 3-18 years with diabetes mellitus.but ultimately 360 cases (186 girls and 174 boys) were enrolled into this study. using World Health Organization diagnostic criteria for MRDM, 25 patients (6.9%) were diagnosed as having MRDM. The mean age at presentation was 7.6±2.8 yr with male to female ratio 1:1.7. Moderate to severe malnutrition (Ideal body weight less than 80) was noted in 93% of the subjects.Insulin requirement was more than 2 IU/Kg/day in most of the patients and none of them had episodes of ketoacidosis. 80% of these subjects had poor socioeconomic status (Income < 350000 Rials per month + family size>6 members). Abnormal pancreatic ultrasonography was noted in 60% of cases diagnosed as having MRDM. This study and other related studies show that although the incidence of MRDM is less, and omitted from the new classification of diabetes mellitus but still some parts of the world that face malnutrition because of the varied presentation of this type of diabetes, it should be kept in mind in patients presenting with diabetes specially the younger group.
