Preliminary results from GABA/Diamyd® trial
Preliminary results from the US investigator initiated GABA/Diamyd® trial were presented today at the annual meeting of the EASD in Barcelona, Spain.

A potential positive effect of GABA on lowering glucagon levels was observed. No serious side effects were
