| |  | | |  By blocking a protein, VDAC1, in the insulin-producing beta cells, it is possible to restore their normal function in case of type 2 diabetes. In preclinical experiments, the researchers behind a new study have also shown that it is possible to prevent the development of the disease. | | | | |  Diabetes UK’s ‘Making Hospitals Safe for People with Diabetes’ report, released today (08/10/2018), has revealed concerning inadequacies in care for diabetes inpatients. | | | | |  Liva Healthcare, the digital health platform designed to tackle Type 2 diabetes, has appointed Dr Roger Henderson as UK medical director. | | | | |  People with type 1 diabetes are far more likely to develop cardiovascular disease than those without diabetes. Their risks climb even higher if they show signs of hypertension (high blood pressure) or dyslipidemia (unhealthy levels of cholesterol or triglycerides). | | | | |  Diabetes is characterized by high blood sugar levels.

This results in poor wound healing and in severe cases can lead to limb amputations. | |
