Immune clues could predict diabetes risk in older adults
NCT ID NCT03309761
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study examined blood samples and physical measurements from 158 adults aged 55-69 to see if certain immune system patterns are linked to insulin resistance, a condition that can lead to diabetes. Researchers measured various immune cells and markers to find a profile that could help identify people at risk. The goal was to better understand the connection between the immune system and metabolic health.
