Study on arthritis and diabetes link halted early
NCT ID NCT02639988
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study looked at whether people with both rheumatoid arthritis and type 2 diabetes have a harder time controlling their diabetes than those with osteoarthritis and diabetes. Researchers planned to follow 176 adults to see how quickly they needed new diabetes treatments. However, the study was terminated early, so the findings are limited.
