Title: [Endocrine diseases and diabetes]. Author: Brunová J. Journal: Cas Lek Cesk; 2004; 143(8):507-11. PubMed ID: 15446452. Abstract: Disorders of endocrine system are often associated with diabetes mellitus. Overproduction of hormones with hyperglycaemic effect, for example that of growth hormone or cortisol, can lead to impaired glucose tolerance or even to induce manifestation of diabetes mellitus. Autoimmune character of some endocrinopathies is a well-known cause of diabetes mellitus type 1 and also of the thyroid gland involvement. Diabetes mellitus, especially with a poor glycaemic control, influences various functions of endocrine organs.
