Abstract : Diabetes is characterized by elevated blood glucose levels in humans, which are mostly brought on by poor insulin production and utilization. Numerous genetic factors are responsible for causing TIDM such as PTPN22 and CTLA. People with diabetes mellitus are more likely to acquire a variety of linked conditions and conditions known as comorbidities because of a number of hereditary factors, environmental factors, certain medications, and other causes. Some of the common comorbidities that are prevalent in the T2DM patient population include congestive kidney disease, retinopathy, neuropathy, cardiovascular disease, urinary disorders, hyperlipidemia, and obesity. Diabetes has a high rate of hypertension, obesity, hyperlipidemia, and cardiovascular disease frequently coexist in patients as comorbid conditions. Knowing how genes function differs and how particular genetic factors raise the likelihood of comorbidities during diabetes can help develop effective medication for the management of diabetes Insight into how different genes operate and how specific genetic factors increase the risk of comorbidities during diabetes can aid in the development of effective diabetic medications to curb the epidemic of diabetes and its associated complications. A multifaceted approach is required, including early detection of diabetes, checking for its consequences, providing the best possible care at all levels of treatment for those who currently have the disease, and preventing diabetes in those with prediabetes. Diabetes prevalence is expected to increase, which will increase the need for rehabilitation therapy to decrease any problems the condition can cause. Exercise has been reported to improve insulin sensitivity to elevated blood sugar levels, enhance glucose absorption, decrease intra-abdominal fat a known risk factor for insulin resistance—and prevent cardiovascular issues.
