We are helping families gain access to type 1 diabetes screening through our at-home DNA saliva test kit and at-home autoantibody kit. This no-nonsense programs means adults and children can screen to spot T1D in the earlier stages — before you need daily insulin therapy. An early diagnosis means preventing diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and taking advantage of FDA-approved therapies and clinical trials striving to delay the full onset of T1D.

Wir gestalten die Zukunft der urologischen Versorgung. Kranus Health bietet ein umfassendes Therapieangebot von der Andrologie bis zur Uro-Onkologie und erweitert aktiv sein Angebot an klinisch evidenzbasierten Behandlungen. ________________ Providing virtual care in urology. Kranus Health is providing a full range of therapies from Andrology to Uro-Oncology, actively broadening its array of virtual care journeys backed by clinical evidence. Urological conditions silently impact lives worldwide, often escaping widespread attention. Within this broad field, Andrology sheds light on the prevalent issue of erectile dysfunction, affecting a significant portion of adult males globally - 80 million in the US and EU alone. Despite its profound impact on relationships and self-esteem, it is frequently endured in silence. Prostate issues present other substantial challenges within urological health. Among them, prostate enlargement (BPH), which is the most common benign tumor found in men, affects more than 130 million in the EU and US, gradually straining healthcare systems and disrupting lives. Urology also encompasses the often-overlooked issue of incontinence, which affects roughly 200 million individuals globally, encompassing both men and women. Despite its prevalence, it remains largely sidelined in public discussions. Addressing these and other related pathologies, such as uro-oncology is crucial on a global scale. Its vital to ensure that everyone facing these challenges receives the understanding and support they need on their journey to healing.
