Rhee on CGM and mortality risk among veterans receiving dialysis with diabetes, Michels on differences in clinical manifestations and islet autoantibodies by age in adult-onset T1D, plus a "Rapid Exchange" segment
Q: What are the clinical implications of the adult-onset Type 1 diabetes findings?
Adults can present with Type 1 diabetes across a wide age range, and many adults may lack multiple autoantibodies, complicating diagnosis and requiring broader markers beyond GAD testing.
