Endocrine Today’s award-winning article focuses on the impact of “double diabetes,” which Francine Kaufman, MD, former president of the American Diabetes Association and chief medical officer and vice president of global medical, clinical and health affairs for Medtronic Diabetes, characterized as a condition that causes type 1 diabetes patients with overweight or obesity to display such hallmarks of type 2 diabetes as insulin resistance, hypertension and dyslipidemia.
Today, a clinician is likely to have a patient with type 1 diabetes with a host of type 2-related comorbidities, bringing unique risks and requiring more careful management. Endocrine Today Staff Writer Regina Schaffer interviewed leading experts on the risks, treatment options and challenges of “double diabetes.” Visit this link to read the full article and comment on this issue.
