Diabetes. Excess mortality in well-controlled T1DM without renal disease

Janaka Karalliedde et al. Nat Rev Nephrol. 2015 Mar.

Abstract

The authors of a new study report that independent of renal disease, any level of glycaemia is associated with increased mortality risk in patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus. However, this view may be overly simplistic—a multifactorial approach is required to reduce excess mortality in this population.
