The genetic determination of insulin-dependent (IDDM) and non-insulin-dependent (NIDDM) diabetes mellitus and thyroid gland diseases (TGD) was carried out using clinical-genealogical data on 229 patients with IDDM, 275 patient with NIDDM, 247 patients with TGD and their relatives. Results of component decomposition showed the role of genetic factors in the determination of these diseases and the existence of interloci interaction in genetic control of IDDM and NIDDM. The genetic independence of these diseases and genetic homogeneity of NIDDM were revealed using models of Ch. Smith and T. Reich.
