Diabetes' hidden toll on young bones revealed
NCT ID NCT04289727
Summary
This study aimed to understand how type 1 diabetes affects bone development in children during their critical growth years. Researchers followed 40 children with diabetes and 40 healthy children for two years, measuring bone strength and structure. They wanted to see if blood sugar control affects how bones grow during puberty, which could explain why people with diabetes might have weaker bones later in life.
