The risk of type 2‐diabetes among persons with intellectual disability: a Danish population‐based matched cohort study
Persons with ID have an increased risk of T2DM. This knowledge is important in relation to the development and prioritising of preventive initiatives among persons with ID in the healthcare sector. Future research should focus on the underlying mechanisms that can explain the possible association between ID and T2DM as it allows a more targeted prevention strategy.
