The DIABETe project seeks to detect the risk of hospitalization in diabetic patients at an early point in time, with patients classified as: (1) “very high cardiovascular risk” when presenting with a personal history of myocardial infarction (MI) or stroke, limb amputation or cardiomyopathy, and (2) receiving “intensive” insulin therapy, with at least three injections per day or pump administration, while offering them personalized follow-up and education regarding their illness and its management [43]. The gene discussed is INS; the disease is cardiomyopathy.
