In 2000, the World Health Organization estimated that over 177 millions people have diabetes, including more than 2 millions Canadians. The financial burden of diabetes and its complications on the Canadian healthcare system is enormous estimated at $13.2 billion every year. A major challenge in the treatment of Type I diabetes is the prevention of late complications, usually achieved by intensified insulin treatment.
