New study reveals serious long-term complications in youth-onset type 2 diabetes

Phil Zeitler, MD, Ph.D., has been treating youth with type 2 diabetes for more than 20 years. He and a team of researchers published a paper today on the TODAY2 study in the New England Journal of Medicine on the long-term complications of type 2 diabetes. (TODAY stands for Treatment Options for type 2 Diabetes in Adolescents and Youth. The first phase of the study took place from 2004—2011; phase two from 2011—2020. Both studies involved more than 550 participants from across the country.)
