Diabète De Type 1

The Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) field is evolving.

Recognition of the presymptomatic stages in T1D is growing.^1-4 

The clinical benefits of early detection of T1D are being highlighted.^3-4 Programmes focusing on early detection through testing and screening for presymptomatic autoimmune T1D are increasingly offered to risk populations and the general population.^1,2

Autoimmune Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is undergoing a fundamental transformation in how the medical community approaches diagnosis and care.

Autoimmune Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) can be detected through islet autoantibody testing years before symptoms appear.^1-2 The video here explains how the condition progresses silently through presymptomatic stages, with beta cell destruction occurring long before symptom onset and clinical diagnosis.^4-8

Parent's experiences of stage 3 diagnosis of T1D.

Individuals living with other associated autoimmune diseases like celiac disease or autoimmune thyroid disease, are at an increased risk of developing autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) and should be appropriately screened.^1-6

Delay in screening for autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) can increase the risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at diagnosis—a critical complication that is potentially life-threatening and may result in long-term poor glycemic control and neurological complications.^1,2 By identifying autoimmune T1D early, you can significantly lower the risk of DKA at diagnosis.^3,4

Individuals who screen positive for ≥1 autoimmune islet cell antibodies need periodic medical monitoring, which includes regular assessments of blood glucose and HbA1c levels. You can also educate them about symptoms of diabetes, diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), and provide psychosocial support to prepare them for a possible clinical diagnosis for type 1 diabetes (T1D).¹
