So the legacy effect is basically in the first decade of life diagnosis of diabetes, the better control of diabetes goes a long way. So it really protects your blood vessels, your organs, your eyes, your heart, your kidneys. They respond to the good control for years to come. So that is why we call those as foundation years. And you want to make sure that the diabetes is under excellent control because that's going to reflect years down the road.
