Den här artikeln är över 5 år gammal, och informationen kan därför vara inaktuell. Att ha förhöjt blodsocker och befinna sig i förstadium till diabetes innebär ökad risk för hjärt-kärlsjukdom. Men riskökningen är mer måttlig bland äldre än hos medelålders, visar ny forskning från Lunds universitet. Att både förstadium till diabetes och konstaterad diabetes ökar risken för hjärt-kärlsjukdomar är kä
