U-Shaped Link for BMI at Diagnosis With Mortality in Type 2 Diabetes | insureintell.com.

CONCLUSIONS Patients categorized as normal weight or obese with T2DM within a year of diagnosis of T2DM exhibit variably higher mortality outcomes compared with the overweight group, confirming a U-shaped association of BMI with mortality. Whether weight-loss interventions reduce mortality in all T2DM patients requires study.
