Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults in China: clinical features and epidemiology
2018
Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) is a type
of adult-onset autoimmune diabetes with the autoimmune attack against
islet beta cells similar to classic type 1 diabetes (T1DM) while manifesting
as the slow progressing T2DM. Understanding more about the clinical
and immunological features of LADA could help in avoiding misdiagnosis.
Epidemiology studies of LADA in Europe, North America, and other Asia
countries have revealed the clinical characteristics and disease progression
of LADA to a certain extent. The LADA China Study and other studies
in China provided further evidence for the prevalence of LADA in the
Chinese population.
