这种被称为热带糖尿病的综合征似乎与发达国家常见的两种主要类型不同。主要的胰腺外分泌疾病可能存在也可能不存在，并且在这两组中存在临床和生化变异。对于这些病症，有人提出了“营养不良相关糖尿病”这一术语。尽管营养不良是一个看似合理的统一因素，但在获得更多有关临床和生化特征以及病因学的信息之前，有一个很好的理由保留热带糖尿病一词。
The syndrome known as tropical diabetes seems to be distinct from the two main types common in developed countries. Major pancreatic exocrine disease may or may not be present, and within these two groups there are clinical and biochemical variants. For these conditions the term malnutrition-related diabetes has been proposed. Although malnutrition is a plausible unifying factor, there is a good case for retaining the term tropical diabetes until there is more information on clinical and biochemical features and on aetiology.
