A recent publication in JAMA again demonstrates that a significant proportion of young adults with type-1 or type-2 diabetes develop diabetes-related complications and comorbidities. These complications and comorbidities already occur after a relative short disease duration and is most frequently seen in young adults with type-2 diabetes. Future research should focus on medical, social and psychological factors that will improve diabetes care.
