    Author: Bella AF, Akintewe TA, Famuyiwa OO.
    Journal: Afr J Med Med Sci; 1985; 14(1-2):71-4. PubMed ID: 2994443.
    Abstract:
    A case is reported of diabetes mellitus associated with insulin resistance, acanthosis nigricans and systemic lupus erythematosus. This will be the first such case described in a Nigerian and most likely the first case in an African, of this recently characterized syndrome. An awareness about this syndrome by physicians in this environment should lead to a prompt referral to where there are adequate facilities for an early diagnosis which could prove to be life-saving.
