Diabetesforskare vid Lunds universitet har tidigare visat att det är möjligt att dela in diabetes i fem olika grupper med olika sjukdomsutveckling. En ny studie av samma forskare ger ökat stöd för att indelningen kan bli användbar inom sjukvården i framtiden. Forskarna har dessutom gjort nya fynd som visar på skillnader mellan grupperna när det gäller utvecklingen av komplikationer. Många patiente
