🌈 Multiple long-term term conditions (MLTC or multimobidity) is growing fast worldwide.

But its impact isn’t the same for everyone.

📚 We systematically reviewed 792 studies to examine Sociodemographic intersections

Unfortunately, only 4 studies met the criteria—and none were longitudinal.

⏳A major lack of intersectionality-informed, longitudinal MLTC research.

Without it, we can’t understand how inequalities unfold across the life course—or design solutions that truly work.

📈 What happens after prediabetes (intermediate hyperglycaemia) ?

Our paper led by @frazac and Suping

Using data from 328k adults in England, we mapped trajectories to type 2 diabetes, cancer, and death.

👵🏽 Older adults had the highest cancer rates, while developing T2D only slightly increased cancer risk.

⏳ 10 years after diagnosis, most younger adults stayed in the prediabetes state, whereas older adults had higher risks of progression or death.

🔍 BMI, smoking, ethnicity & deprivation shaped these pathways too.

🎯 Prevention and early detection of T2D & cancer must be tailored to age at prediabetes diagnosis—one size doesn’t fit all.
