Research: Diabetes Facilities
- Oct. 25th, 2011 at 1:19 PM
Not sure if anyone will have any suggestions beyond what I can find through web searching, but my boss asked me to look into compiling a list of the top 10 diabetes research / clinic facilities in the US. He is a long time diabetic and wants to explore more options for the future. Is there anyone that has any input?

There is a definite difference between them. Treatment options, dosagee and insulin choices, diet recommendations are all different. Knowing which one he has could help narrow your search.
If you google, restrict the search to .edu sites which will get you medical universities, dissertaions, research, etc. Depending on the medical condition, .mil, and .gov can bring up good results, too.
Typically that is brought on by diet and weight issues, usually when someone is over the age of forty.
However, since it is related to obesity there are more and more cases showing up in younger people.
Research into obesity might get you more information on type 2 diabetes.
You could also look into related issues like glaucoma.
You can also check into diabetic ketone acidosis (spelling here...pretty sure I'm wrong). It is essentially what they call it when a diabetic's sugar is so high and insulin so low the person is essentially not digesting anything he or she eats. The body resorts to breaking down its own muscle tissue. Which raises the lactic acid in the muscles---symptoms are vomiting, cramps, sweating, confusion. Not pretty. And it is an extreme situation. But looking into it may help refine your search into prevention methods.
Not sure any of that helps.
I know there was talk that within the near future diabetics would be able inhale their insulin instead of injecting it.
He may also want to research Medtronics, who do insulin pumps and glucose monitoring systems.
