Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Att den mentala förmågan starkt försämras när blodsockret faller för lågt är väl känt. Nu visar en ny studie på skolbarn att riktigt höga blodsocker har precis lika negativa effekt på tankeförmågan. Amerikanska forskare lät skolbarn i åldrarna 6 till 11 år med typ 1 diabetes utföra två olika test. Det ena handlade o

Hos barn mellan fem och nio år påskyndade infektionen insjuknandet i diabetes. Under 17 år följde forskarna förekomsten av typ 1-diabetes bland alla personer under 30 år i Sverige, för att uppskatta risken att utveckla diabetes efter en covid-19-infektion.
