Funded Activity Summary

Children with type 1 diabetes face the risk of developing severe complications later in life involving their eyes (retinopathy), kidneys (nephropathy) and nerves (neuropathy). This study aims to determine if subtle, early changes seen in the retinal blood vessels, as measured from new computer imaging techniques, predict the subsequent development of these diabetes complications in children-adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
