| Abstract: | Diabetes is a silent pandemic which the world has learnt to live with, professors in the Department of Podiatry at University of Malta have said. Tomorrow, 14 November, marks World Diabetes Day, a day dedicated to the condition which is a “global burden which brings about lifelong complications in the body”, Professor Cynthia Formosa said. The Malta Independent spoke with the two professors, who are currently developing a device which will attempt to reduce the incidence of diabetic foot complications in persons with diabetes. |
