Answer: Type 1 diabetes

Explanation:

The destruction of the  pancreatic beta cells is indicative of the type 1 diabetes. The type 1 diabetes is associated with the weak immune system as the fighting ability of the body against the pathogens becomes weak. The type 1 diabetes is caused by the genetic factors and environmental factors like virus and other disease causing microbes.

As a result of destruction of the beta cells the insulin decreases, even no insulin is produced in the body. This condition will result in hyperglycemia. As a result of hyperglycemia the level of sugar in the blood will increase as in the absence of insulin secretion the blood sugar level will increase.
