ABSTRACT
The diabetic status of the local jhansi patients (120 cases) was established before and after antileprosy treatment control studies were performed in normal healthy subjects (50 person) without family history of diabetes mellitus. Random normals showed an incidence of diabetes only 2% while leprosy patients (94 males and 26 females) had incidence of diabetic status of 14.2%. The highest incidence (19.3%) of diabetes was in lepromatous leprosy and lowest incidence (6,4%) in tuberculoid leprosy patients. Repeated studies in leprosy after treatment showed not only clinical improvement for leprosy but also disappearance of the chemical and latent diabetes mellitus and lowering of blood sugar levels in manifest diabetes mellitus
