Differentiating type 1 and type 2 diabetes care is a major issue that needs better understanding, said Kevan Herold, MD, professor of immunobiology and medicine at Yale School of Medicine

Research showed that screening 10-year-old adolescents who are at high risk of type 1 diabetes (T1D) for islet autoantibodies could predict future development of T1D.

It's harder for younger children to deal with the complexities of managing type 1 diabetes (T1D), so a delayed diagnosis even by a few years is a big deal, said Kevan Herold, MD, professor of immunobiology and medicine at Yale School of Medicine.

Young children using the t:slim X2 insulin pump with Control-IQ Technology system maintained target glucose levels for 3 hours longer than children using an insulin pump or daily injections with a continuous glucose monitor.

There is clearly an important role for teplizumab to treat type 1 diabetes (T1D) right now, said Kevan Herold, MD, professor of immunobiology and medicine at Yale School of Medicine.

Researchers found that treatment modality was associated with the proportion of youths with type 1 diabetes (T1D) achieving recommended clinical targets.

Kevan Herold, MD, professor of immunobiology and medicine at Yale School of Medicine, talks about some insurers' requirement for patients to have a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes to qualify for coverage of teplizumab.

Research found that patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) have worse in-hospital clinical outcomes if they also have diabetes, especially type 1.

A trial enrolling 97 children newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes did not meet the primary endpoint of preservation of insulin production by beta cells, but it did show a significant decrease in fasting and clinically relevant reduced serum glucagon.
