Diabetes mellitus is the most frequent metabolic disorder. Just under 5 million people suffer from this disease in Germany. Four types of diabetes mellitus are distinguished: type 1 diabetes, type 2 diabetes, other specific diabetes forms, and gestational diabetes. Many characteristics of diabetes mellitus including skin changes are already manifest in the "prediabetic" stage when glucose tolerance is limited so that every elevation of blood sugar levels must be considered pathological. Changes in skin due to diabetes mellitus can be categorized into four disease groups: skin infections, skin diseases found overly frequently in association with diabetes mellitus, skin alterations due to diabetic complications, and reactions to antidiabetic treatment.
糖尿病是最常见的代谢紊乱疾病。在德国，近500万人患有这种疾病。糖尿病分为四种类型：1型糖尿病、2型糖尿病、其他特定类型的糖尿病以及妊娠期糖尿病。糖尿病的许多特征，包括皮肤变化，在糖耐量受限的“糖尿病前期”阶段就已显现，因此血糖水平的每一次升高都应被视为病理性的。糖尿病引起的皮肤变化可分为四类疾病：皮肤感染、与糖尿病过度频繁相关的皮肤病、糖尿病并发症引起的皮肤改变以及抗糖尿病治疗的反应。
