type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. the largest research group dedicated to finding a cure for type 1 diabetes is the group that's running this event today, this walk. both of these diseases affect your body's ability to regulate and to produce insulin. type 1 diabetes strikes anyone anywhere. it eliminates your ability to produce insulin. type 2 diabetes requires insulin injection also but it's more of an ongoing monitored process where you have a limited ability to produce insulin. >> okay. thank you very much, ron, for joining us this morning. of course the impact of not having a cure for diabetes can be catastrophic. certainly there is time to sign up and help raise money for the cause. chances are you know someone who has diabetes of any kind. so moving on to baseball. baseball lover. what would you do to get the chance to watch baseball all day every day for a year?

or an indication they might be diabetic?'s not showing cause and evening, but they are finding that if you a mild case of psoriasis, or this skin disease, you have 1 1/2 times the chance of having diabetes at the same time whether you know about it or not. if you have a severe case of psoriasis, you have almost double the chance of having diabetic. why is this important? we see this type of patients in our office all the time and always treat them as a skin disease. the new way of thinking about this, wait a second, this could be a sign, symptoms, of this person having diabetic. what i would tell to this patient is, we need to do some screening for high blood pressure, for diabetes and cardiac disease. last week on "house call" we had a great segment where we talked about the fact that inflammation is the keyword behind diabetes, heart disease and stroke. it happens to be that the same kind of foam is going on with -- phenomenon is going on with psoriasis. they have a common theme. >> rather than being an alarmist, this stud

imagine if we had purchased coverage for diabetes the way we've purchased coverage for addiction. the only people who would get diabetes care in this country are people who would have gone blind or lost one of their fingers because that's the only kind of coverage we've ever had. you had to be at the most severe end of the spectrum in order to even get care, and that care was segregated from the rest of healthcare. you've heard many times about the other problems that are associated. well, they're literally paid for separately with a workforce that's trained differently. now, as healthcare reform and parity roll out, people at all parts of that continuum ought to be able to get care from being screened early, as candace says, through interventions in the office of their primary care doctors to specialty care that they already have and beyond. i think it's going to be really quite an important benefit for people that are affected, but for the rest of medicine as well, going to see better quality care and far-reduced costs. and you've brought in a very good dimension in terms of how
