And then to submitt an international publication about the place of the SIRA class in the guidelines for these subpopulations.

Talks about KPL's role in the PADDIA/CADDIA project.
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) and coronary artery disease (CAD) screening and management are suboptimal in patients with diabetes, even though such patients have an increased risk of ischemic events. Currently, no exhaustive guidelines are available to manage these patients.
The PADDIA (Peripheral Artery Disease in DIAbetic patients) / CADDIA (Coronary Artery Disease in DIAbetic patients) project, endorsed by Diabetes & Cardiovascular Disease study group, and involving 7 countries (Austria, Belgium, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands and UK) aims to establish current practice for PAD & CAD disease management in people with diabetes, and to develop an expert position for improvement.
