A full understanding of the relationship of diabetes to skeletal disorders remains elusive and many physicians who deal with such issues are unclear about causes and management. While the macro- and microvascular complications associated with diabetes mellitus are well known, complications associated with bone, dental and musculoskeletal health are not.
Endocrinologists, primary care physicians, geriatricians, podiatrists, dentists, and researchers interested in diabetes mellitus associated bone, dental and musculoskeletal disorders will find this to be a comprehensive tome on the topic.
- Covers clinically important complications of diabetes that are less understood
- Presents up-to-date, thoroughly referenced information for both clinicians, researchers and other healthcare providers
- Highlights current research and treatment for skeletal deficits and complications due to diabetes types 1 and 2
- Serves as a one-stop resource for the bone, dental and muscular disorders associated with diabetes mellitus
Researchers (academic and industry), academic and practicing clinicians (endocrinologists, primary care physicians, geriatricians, podiatrists, physiatrists, dentists, surgeons, etc), undergraduate and graduate medical students, and other healthcare providers (nurse-practitioners, physician assistants, diabetes educators, pharmacists, etc)
