An individual diagnosed with #type2diabetes at age 30 could see their life expectancy fall by as much as 14 years, say researchers. The findings highlight the importance of delaying - or preventing - onset of the disease. @HLRI_Cambridge @Cambridgecardio.

An important population study for new clues for heart attack and stroke for @CAMBRIDGE_CEU Spencer and Emanuele @Di_Angelantonio and their collaborators.
Well done to Spencer Keene and colleagues!. Their study shows higher blood troponin levels link to greater risk of heart attack/stroke. Testing could prevent 1 event for every 500 people at intermediate risk 🫀.
