We’re excited to share the release of the PRAESIIDIUM project video, produced with the support of the Booster https://www.horizonresultsbooster.eu/ , which explores the current state of diabetes prevention and shows how our work aims to close the most urgent gaps.
A Growing Global Health Crisis
Type 2 diabetes is one of the fastest-growing health challenges of our time. Across Europe, 1 in 11 adults are living with the disease, making it the third leading cause of death. Its rise is driven by aging populations, sedentary lifestyles, and obesity—and it is now affecting children and adolescents at alarming rates.
The Silent Stage: Prediabetes
But before diabetes develops, there is an important—and often overlooked—stage: prediabetes. Globally, around 541 million people are living with elevated blood sugar levels that don’t yet meet the threshold for diabetes.
This is the window of opportunity. At this stage, with the right interventions, the process can be slowed, stopped, or even reversed. Lifestyle changes such as improved nutrition and increased physical activity can make a huge difference. Prevention is not only possible—it’s powerful.
How PRAESIIDIUM Will Help
The PRAESIIDIUM project is designed to tackle this challenge head-on. Our goal is to identify the early biological and clinical signals that mark the shift from health to prediabetes. By spotting these early warning signs, we can create real opportunities to intervene before diabetes takes hold.
What makes PRAESIIDIUM unique is the combination of cutting-edge tools:
- Artificial Intelligence to detect subtle patterns in complex health data
- Wearable sensors to provide continuous, non-invasive monitoring
- Clinical insights to ground our findings in real-world healthcare
Together, these elements will power a predictive tool that helps healthcare professionals deliver personalized, preventive care—shifting the focus from treatment to prevention.
Shaping a Healthier Future
The launch of our new video is more than an announcement—it’s an invitation to rethink how we fight diabetes. By investing in early detection and prevention, we can reshape the future of global health.
The message is clear: we don’t have to wait for diabetes to happen. We can stop it before it starts.
