Question Posted 03/17/18:
Dear expert, where can I find patients with diabetes? and are they distinguished by their type of diabetes in ADNI database? I cant find the abbreviation for diabetes in the ADNI dictionary. how can I find it?

Response posted 03/23/18 by Danielle:

There appears to be some information in the recent medical history details log (available for download under Medical History). There is a text field variable that includes the description of the medical condition. MHNUM is the category of type of medical problem with 9=Endocrine - Metabolic (refer to the data dictionary for additional coding) - some of the cells in the text variable include diabetes.
