In a research published in the journal, The Lancet, it was established that women are at higher risk of losing their lives when diagnosed with type 1 diabetes than women who do not have diabetes at all. And the research also found that the lives of patients who are diagnosed at 26-30 years lose an average of 10 years.

The research has been carried out after gathering b extensive material from the registry which has monitored 27,195 individuals with type 1 diabetes for an average of ten years. While researchers already knew that type 1 diabetes is associated with a lower life expectancy, it was not clear until now whether the gender plays any role in it. And if it does then how much does age and gender affect both life expectancy and the risk of cardiovascular diseases at the onset of the disease.

“These are disappointing and previously unknown figures. The study suggests that we must make an even greater effort to aggressively treat patients diagnosed at an early age to reduce the risk of complications and premature death,” said study author, Araz Rawshani, researcher at the Department of Internal Medicine, Sahlgrenska Academy, and the Swedish National Diabetes Registry.

The research done at the University of Gottenburg found that the highest increases in risk of heart attacks are in women who developed type 1 diabetes before the age of ten years. The risk for them is 90 times higher than for controls without diabetes.
