Pancreas Organ Weight in Individuals With Disease-Associated Autoantibodies at Risk for Type 1 Diabetes

Pancreas organ weight in individuals with disease-associated autoantibodies at risk for type 1 diabetes.

improve EMR note quality. In the absence of evidence, only expert opinion remains. It is my opinion as a medical educator, experienced if not expert, that training has minimal lasting impact. Mark Twain wrote, “I didn’t have time to write a short letter, so I wrote a long one instead.” With EMR features such as copy-and-paste and one-click data import, it takes less time and effort to write lon...

A study of type-1 diabetes associated autoantibodies in schizophrenia

Epidemiological studies revealed an association between type-1 diabetes (T1D) and schizophrenia but the findings reported to date have been controversial. To clarify the inconsistency across studies, T1D-associated autoantibodies were examined in plasma samples collected from 272 patients with schizophrenia and 276 control subjects. An in-house enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was deve...

Shared Genetic Basis for Type 1 Diabetes, Islet Autoantibodies, and Autoantibodies Associated With Other Immune-Mediated Diseases in Families With Type 1 Diabetes

Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a polygenic autoimmune disease that is often present with autoantibodies directed against pancreatic islet proteins. Many genetic susceptibility loci are shared with other autoimmune or immune-mediated diseases that also cosegregate in families with T1D. The aim of this study was to investigate whether susceptibility loci identified in genome-wide association studies (G...
