First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This completed study looked at 1759 adults aged 18-55 to uncover why some people develop type 2 diabetes. Researchers measured how the body handles sugar, uses energy, and stores fat, and also collected genetic samples. The goal was to find genetic and lifestyle factors that lead to insulin resistance and diabetes, which could help predict and prevent the disease in the future.
