Exciting New Research Study
Medical literature and research studies have shown that the incidence of diabetes is higher in SDS patients than in the general population. It is important to determine if SDS patients are at risk for developing diabetes. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to avoid the complications that diabetes can cause.
If you are a genetically confirmed SDS patient 3-year-old or above, PLEASE join this study. SDS patients who have already been diagnosed with diabetes are also asked to participate.
This study is free, it will require no travel. And perhaps best of all you will be given the research results and guidance to deal with them if diabetes is detected. Please send an email to info@shwachman-diamond.org and we will put you in touch with Garry Tobin, M.D., the principal researcher.
