Diabetes patients are at an increased risk of developing asthma and the relationship between the two conditions is reciprocal, a recent study revealed.
The latest study presented at the annual meeting of the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) in Madrid, Spain, revealed that while individuals with diabetes are almost twice the risk of asthma, people with asthma have a 28% more chance of developing diabetes. These results highlight the importance of screening for both conditions when someone is diagnosed.
