What's the difference between diabetes and glucosuria?
Diabetes
Definition:
(n.) A disease which is attended with a persistent, excessive discharge of urine. Most frequently the urine is not only increased in quantity, but contains saccharine matter, in which case the disease is generally fatal.

(17) Acute effects of insulin on protein metabolism (whole body and forearm muscle) were simultaneously assessed using doubly labelled (13C15N) leucine in post-absorptive Type I diabetic patients.
(18) Efficacy and tolerability of perorally administered desmopressin were evaluated in 12 adult patients suffering from central diabetes insipidus.
(19) It is suggested that diabetes causes selective changes in the functioning of Gi in adipocyte membranes which removes the tonic GTP-dependent inhibitory function of this G-protein.
(20) Cholera toxin-catalysed ADP-ribosylation identified two forms of Gs alpha-subunits whose labelling was about 4-fold greater in membranes from diabetic animals compared with those from lean animals.
Glucosuria
Definition:
(n.) A condition in which glucose is discharged in the urine; diabetes mellitus.
Example Sentences:
(1) Glycaemia, glucosuria, plasma insulin, and the rates of appearance Ra and disappearance Rd of glucose (kinetics of double-labelled glucose, evaluated according to Steele's equation in its non-steady-state version) were observed under the following conditions, starting from normoglycaemia during glucose-controlled insulin infusion (GCII): (I) insulin withdrawal, (II) insulin withdrawal and glucose infusion, (III) constant i.v.
