First-emerging islet autoantibody and glucose metabolism: search for type 1 diabetes subtypes
Objective: Subtypes in type 1 diabetes pathogenesis have been implicated based on the first-appearing autoantibody (primary autoantibody). We set out to describe the glucose metabolism in preclinical diabetes in relation to the primary autoantibody in ...

Background: Autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA) is an immunological disease caused by autoantibodies. Warm autoantibody mainly includes anti-IgG and anti-(IgG+C3d) type, which can cause direct antiglobulin test (DAT) positive.

Screening of endocrine organ-specific humoral autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter's syndrome reveals a significant increase in diabetes-specific immunoreactivity in comparison with healthy control men. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the frequency of humoral endocrine organ-specific autoimmunity in 47,XXY Klinefelter’s syndrome (KS) by investigating the autoantibody profile specific to type 1 diabetes (T1DM), Addison’s disease (AD), Hashimoto ...

Romiplostim use in pregnant women with immune thrombocytopenia
Abstract Treatment for immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) in pregnancy is hampered by the lack of fetal safety evidence of maternally‐administered medications. The Pregnancy Surveillance Program (PSP) collected patient information from 2017–2020 for pregnancy, birth outcomes, and adverse events (AEs) for 186 women exposed to romiplostim from 20 days before ...
