In the years following a type 2 diabetes diagnosis, women are more likely to develop mental health conditions, while men are more likely to develop cardiovascular and renal complications, according to a study published in PLOS Medicine by Fabiola Eto from Queen Mary University of London, UK, and colleagues.
A new study published in PLOS Medicine has found that women with type 2 diabetes are more likely than men to develop mental health conditions, while men are more likely to experience cardiovascular and renal complications after diagnosis. The research, led by Fabiola Eto from Queen Mary University of London, analyzed anonymized health records of 28,720 men and women diagnosed with type 2 diabetes between 2010 and 2020.
The study highlights the need for sex-specific prevention and management strategies for type 2 diabetes and comorbidities, particularly mental health conditions, as current UK medical guidelines lack such tailored interventions.
