 | | |  Women who developed type 1 diabetes before the age of ten years die an average of nearly 18 years earlier than women who do not have diabetes. Men in the corresponding situation lose almost 14 years of life. The lives of patients diagnosed at age 26-30 years are shortened by an average of ten years, according to research published in the British medical journal the Lancet. | | | | |  Properly composed treatment and refraining from cigarette consumption can significantly reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease resulting from type 2 diabetes, according to a study published in The New England Journal of Medicine. In some cases, the increased risks could theoretically be eliminated. | | | | |  According to a new study, more and more young people are being treated for Type 2 diabetes and this is cause for alarm. The study from the Royal College of Paediatrics and Child Health (RCPCH) has found that the number of patients in their youth being treated for type 2 diabetes has risen by 41 percent over the last four years. | | | | |  Fragility fractures are a serious yet neglected complication of both type 1 and type 2 diabetes, with increased risk of fragility fractures in people with diabetes extending across the life span. | |
