Higher HbA1c, two-hour plasma glucose linked to significantly increased risk of retinopathy in children without T2D

Findings in adults with no history of kidney disease; adverse outcomes were higher for those aged 18 to 39 years

Beneficial effects seen for 12 weekly sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy and/or pharmacotherapy using stepped approach

Findings show feasibility and acceptability among undocumented immigrants
