What is the full text for IDDM?

  1. Intra dermal diabetes mellitus

  2. Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus

  3. Insulin decrease diabetes method

  4. Infectious disease diagnosis manual

The correct answer is: Insulin dependent diabetes mellitus

IDDM stands for insulin dependent diabetes mellitus. Intra dermal diabetes mellitus is incorrect because "intra dermal" refers to the skin rather than insulin. Insulin decrease diabetes method is incorrect because insulin deficiency, not decrease, is a characteristic of IDDM. Infectious disease diagnosis manual is incorrect because IDDM is a type of diabetes, not an infectious disease, and therefore cannot be found in a diagnosis manual for infectious diseases.
