In PRECIDENTD, we hope to learn which diabetes medications work best to reduce the risk of heart and kidney disease in people with type 2 diabetes. People with type 2 diabetes are twice as likely to have heart disease or a stroke compared to someone who does not have diabetes, and they are likely to have heart disease or stroke at a younger age. People with…
We are recruiting volunteers, aged 18-70, for a research study on the buildup of excessive liver fat ("fatty liver disease") in people with or at risk for type 2 diabetes because their bodies are resistant to the actions of the blood sugar-lowering hormone, insulin.
