Abstract
Objectives: To understand the occurrence of dyspepsia in patients with diabetes mellitus. Also to understand symptoms overlapped from both diseases.
Patients and Methods: A total of 56 diabetic patients; 19 (34%) type I, and 37 (66%) type II were considered in this study according to the comparative clinical features of types I and II.
Results: Type I diabetes mellitus patients are found to be more likely to contract esophagitis and gastritis, gastric stasis and pre-pyloric ulcer. On the other hand type II diabetes mellitus patients are found to be more likely to contract cancer of the stomach, multiple esophageal ulcer, pyloric ulcer, antral gastritis and duodenal ulcer and gastro-duodenitis.
Conclusion: Patients with diabetes mellitus duration of less than 10 years are more likely to contract esophagitis and gastritis, duodenitis, gastric stasis and multiple esophageal ulcers, while patients with diabetes mellitus duration more than 10 years are found to be more likely to contract pyloric ulcer and antral gastritis and duodenal ulcer.
Keywords: Diabetes mellitus DM; Dyspepsia; Endoscopic findings.
