ANN ARBOR, Mich., April 2 (UPI) -- People in their 50s with diabetes may age before their time compared with their diabetes-free counterparts, U.S. researchers say.
Dr. Christine Cigolle, an assistant professor of family medicine and internal medicine at the University of Michigan Medical School, says adults ages 51-70 with diabetes developed age-related ailments such as cognitive impairment, incontinence, falls, dizziness, vision impairment and pain at a faster rate than those without diabetes.
