Serum MicroRNA-191-5p Levels in Vascular Complications of Type 1 Diabetes: The EURODIAB Prospective Complications Study

J Clin Endocrinol MetabPublished Case-control study

Authors' conclusion

In DM1 subjects, microRNA-191-5p is inversely associated with vascular chronic complications of diabetes.
