Scientists probe surprising link between skin patches and blood sugar

NCT ID NCT06242847

Summary

This small, terminated study aimed to understand the connection between psoriasis and diabetes. Researchers took small skin samples from 10 people with plaque psoriasis to check how insulin acts in their skin patches. The goal was to see if this could explain why people with psoriasis have a higher risk of diabetes, potentially leading to new treatment ideas.
