The prevalence of islet cell antibodies in children with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes was determined in a cohort of 678 children. The natural course of islet cell antibodies was followed in 375 children at 1 year, 252 and 135 children after 2 and 3 years respectively. Islet cell antibodies we

First-degree relatives of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients are at increased risk for developing clinical diabetes. The presence of islet cell or insulin autoantibodies further identifies relatives at greater risk, but not all immunologic-marker-positive relatives progress to disease. Bet
An increased prevalence of Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes has been reported in patients with congenital rubella. Rubella virus multiplies in the pancreas, and we have hypothesized that studies of children with congenital rubella would be of great importance in following the development of Type
The aim was to study the frequency and appearance of cytoplasmic islet cell antibodies in relation to impairment of insulin secretory capacity and some clinical characteristics in a representative group of middle-aged (45-64 years) patients with Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus (70 m
In order to elucidate the possible relationship between insulin autoantibodies (IAA), conventional (ICA-IgG) and complement-fixing (CF-ICA) islet cell antibodies and Coxsackie-B4 and mumps virus-specific antibodies (IgG, IgM and IgA classes), we studied 194 children and adolescents with newly diagno
