The Detailed came up with a list of links, each of which gave an abstract with its source (Journal) and an address for the full article, paper etc. This is a site for serious searchers on a specific subject and not for casual surfers.

Rick Mendosa's Diabetes Directory
The superlative diabetes website. Not only is almost every possible diabetes site and article listed and linked, but they are all carefully and intelligently annotated. The only possible criticism would be that there is very little information on alternative and complementary medicine, which can be very supportive.

Diabetes in Children: A Guide for Parents and Families Learn more about diabetes in children - types of diabetes, symptoms, prevention, management and resources. Although the majority of people diagnosed with diabetes are adults, the disease is increasing in children at an alarming rate. About 210,000 of the 26 million people diagnosed with diabetes are 20 years or younger. These diagnoses include Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes — but obesity-related Type 2 is becoming more common in children. The Basics of Diabetes Diabetes is a chronic condition that changes the way your body processes sugar. Insulin is responsible for moving sugar out of your bloodstream and into your cells, creating energy. Depending on the type, diabetes can inhibit insulin production, your body’s ability to use insulin effectively, or both. This causes a buildup of sugar (glucose) in your child’s bloodstream, leading to potentially serious complications. The Four Types of Diabetes Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes are the most commonly talked about types. However, the differences between these types are less well-known. Understanding the mechanisms behind these types of diabetes — and two other diabetes-adjacent syndromes — will help you to navigate this world. Educating yourself on the type of diabetes that your child or teen has will better equip you to prevent complications.
