People with diabetes have an increased risk of heart attack, stroke as well as kidney, eye and neurological disease.
Take advantage of the opportunity for an early detection of diabetes-related complications. You and your family doctor can benefit from your results.
Take part in the German Diabetes Study!
We are looking for people who have been diagnosed with diabetes during the past 12 months.
As part of the German Diabetes Study, the effect of individual factors on the progression of diabetes are examined in order to identify specific risk profiles and develop new tailored treatment concepts.
Who can participate? Which examinations are performed? Who is responsible for the study? What benefits do I have as a study participant?
