Diabetes In Control. A free weekly diabetes newsletter for Medical Professionals. News and information for Medical Professionals.
Szilard Voros, MD, FACC, FSCCT, FAHA, talks about how new panels of test he and his team at Health Diagnostic Laboratory have created can catch diseases earlier. The new Diabetes Prevention & Management Panel (DPMP) grew out of the recognition that up to 70% of the CV patients that the team had been studying had underlying insulin resistance. They began to focus on root causes and put together a panel of biomarker tests for three important components of diabetes; glycemic control, beta cell dysfunction and insulin resistance.
