One of the major risk factors for developing late complications such as renal failure (ESRD) is duration of T1D. READ MORE

Unilateral renal ischemia for as short as 20 minutes led to an irreversible progressive injury in DM kidneys, whereas the injury in non-DM kidneys was almost reversible. READ MORE
