Study Finds Type 2 Diabetes Leads to Different Health Risks in Men and Women
A study published in PLOS Medicine analyzed health risks following type 2 diabetes diagnosis in 28,720 UK patients over nearly seven years. It found men are more prone to cardiovascular and kidney diseases, while women more often develop mental health conditions like anxiety and depression. Hypertension was the most common subsequent condition for both sexes. Men experienced health events earlier, but women faced higher rates of mental health issues. Mental health complications were linked to earlier mortality in both genders, with men dying younger on average.
