Answer to Question 1

ANS: D
Hallmarks of diabetes mellitus are glycosuria, polyuria, and polydipsia. Nausea and seizures are not clinical manifestations of diabetes mellitus. Impaired vision is a long-term complication of the disease.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
The immune-mediated type 1 diabetes mellitus typically has its onset in children or young adults. Infrequent ketoacidosis, gradual onset, and effectiveness of oral agents for treatment are more consistent with type 2 diabetes.
