This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The purpose of this study is to assess the development of long-term complications of diabetes among people who participiated in the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) between 1983 and 1993 and the Epidemiology of Diabetes Intervention and Complications (EDIC) investigational study between 1994 and 2005. Approximatley 1400 volunteers will be asked to participate in the EDIC continuing follow-up in up to 28 centers in North America. The overall goal of the study is to help determine factors that are associated with the development of eye, kidney, nerve, and large blood vessel complication in diabetes.
