The disease was discovered 70 years ago and in 1985, the World Health Organization (WHO) was considered a different pathology, but did not enter the official classification and diagnostic documents of diabetes. Despite the past years, the Type 5 diabetes approach is yet to be fully understood and there are some studies about it in the world.
Therefore, it is developed on the basis of malnutrition and patients usually live for more than a year after diagnosis. Therefore, it is also estimated that the disease affects 20 to 25 million people worldwide, especially in Asia and Africa continents.
