A new study conducted by a group of researchers has found that people who experience interpersonal violence or child abuse face a more than 20% increased risk of developing diabetes. The study, “Lifetime Interpersonal Violence or Abuse and Diabetes Rates by Sex and Race,” was recently published in the American Journal of Preventive Medicine. Dr. Greg talks with one of the researchers, Dr. Ann Coker; the interim executive director of the University of Kentucky Center for Research on Violence Against Women (CRVAW).
