Diabetes and Multiple Sclerosis Linked in Nationwide Danish Study
NEW YORK (Reuters Health) Jul 12 - People with type 1 diabetes are more
than three times more likely to develop multiple sclerosis (MS) than
are those without diabetes, new research suggests. In addition, the two
diseases appear to be linked, albeit to a weaker extent, within
families.
The present, population-based study is not the first to reveal an
association between type 1 diabetes and MS. However, previous
supporting data had come largely from case reports, patient series, or
epidemiologic studies with small patient numbers.
As reported in the Archives of Neurology for July, Dr. Nete M. Nielsen,
from the Statens Serum Institut in Copenhagen, and colleagues assessed
the occurrence of MS in 6078 patients with type 1 diabetes during
71,626 person-years of follow-up. In addition, the researchers
evaluated the presence of type 1 diabetes in 14,771 first-degree
relatives of 11,862 MS patients.
Eleven cases of MS developed in the diabetes patients, while only 3.38
cases would be expected based on the rates in the general population.
Thus, patients with type 1 diabetes had a 3.23-fold increased risk of
MS.
First-degree relatives of MS patients had a 63% increased risk of
developing type 1 diabetes. However, after accounting for the
possibility of also being related to a patient with type 1 diabetes,
the excess risk fell to 44%.
"To our knowledge, the present study is the first truly nationwide
cohort study to demonstrate intraindividual and, to a lesser degree,
intrafamilial co-occurrence of MS and type 1 diabetes. The underlying
mechanisms remain unknown," the investigators note, "but may involve
both genetic and environmental factors."

There shouldn't be any such profession as nurse. Hospitals should be all
doctors. Doctors train hard for years and take oaths. Nurses are just like,
"whatever man!".
Whenever some creepy s**t goes down, it's always the nurses or orderlies or
some other underling giving the medical profession a bad name. It should be
all doctors. Doctors and robots. |

Sounds like someone who found out that nursing school was a lot harder than
they imagined... |

Dood, whatEVER man!! (oh year, your right <g>).
I'd like to see you paying for a 'Doctor only' hospital visit!! 
Although, I do see a lot of potential in robots for the future of
healthcare.
