[Manifestation of diabetes (author's transl)].
Material of research: 350 cases of diabetes mellitus. The time between the manifestation of diabetes mellitus and the onset of retinopathy is reduced in two cases: with diabetes manifesting itself (a) at the age of puberty, (b) after the age of fifty. The retinopathy appears as "retinopathia simplex" (in all its different subvarieties) and as "retinopathia proliferans". Out investigation showed a gradual decrease in the benign forms of the retinopathia simplex with advancing years--from twenty to sixty--of diabetic manifestation, with retinopathia proliferans simultaneously gaining ground. With diabetes manifesting from sixty on, retinopathia proliferans dwindles to insignificance; there remains an indefinite form of retinopathia simplex.
