About >20% of a first-degree relative develop this form of diabetes however it is even more prevalent within twins who have a 90%-100% chance of getting it if the other one has it13, 30. It is believed that NIDD is different between different patients, they usually have two common metabolic abnormalities, insulin resistance and defects in glucose - stimulated insulin secretion, which leads to the diseased state13. It is also believed that there is a genetic predisposition such as genes involved with insulin resistance, obesity genes, and genes involved in β cell function, this increases the risk of an individual getting NIDD 13, 30. Environmental factors increase ones risks even
