Genetic determination as well as prospective analysis of islet cell autoantibodies and autoantibodies to insulin were conducted in a population of 479 first degree relatives of 174 Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients. Analysis of HLA haplotypes within families illustrated the high frequency

To evaluate the behaviour and predictive value of islet cell and insulin autoantibodies in patients with organ-specific autoimmune diseases, we followed 21 non-diabetic subjects for a mean period of 84 +/- 27 months. Ten patients were persistently seropositive for complement-fixing islet cell antibo
Islet cell antibodies and glutamic acid decarboxylase II (GAD II) antibodies have been discussed in the autoimmune pathogenesis of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM). Hence, immunosuppressants, intravenous immunoglobulins, and plasmapheresis have been used in an effort to modulate autoimmune
A total of 614 Jewish patients under the age of 18 with Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus, diagnosed in Israel during the period 1 January 1965 to 31 December 1979, were identified by exhaustive screening of all possible sources. Mortality experience of this cohort was updated to 31 March
Serum levels of acetoacetate, 3-hydroxybutyrate and the 3-hydroxybutyrate/acetoacetate ratio were determined in Type 1 (insulin-dependent) and Type 2 (non-insulin-dependent) diabetic patients by a new sensitive method. Efforts were made to differentiate Type 1 and Type 2 diabetes by serum levels of
