glycosuria and diabetes mellitus r related. but glycosuria and diabetes insipidus r not related. IN diabetes theres raised bld glucose level either due to total lack of insulin(type1) or insulin resistance(type 2). and bcoz of raised bld glucose theres excess pourin in urine.that is glycosuria. in diabetes insipidus thers loss of body water in form of urine bcoz theres deficiency of a hormone (ADH) that absorbs water frm kidney preventin it frm bein excreted.no relation between diabetes insipidus and glucose for tht matter

Diabetes mellitus leads to dysregulation of glucose control in the body. One feature of diabetes mellitus is the fact that excessive glucose in the blood leads to the leakage of glucose into the urine which is known as glycosuria. Diabetes insipidus is related to a problem associated with antidiuretic hormone, either its production in the hypothalamus or its ability to act at the kidney, leading to the production of large quantities of non-concentrated urine. Diabetes insipidus and diabetes mellitus, though they have similar names are not related.
