Multicenter Study of Fulminant Type 1 Diabetes in China

Multicenter Study of Fulminant Type 1 Diabetes in China

This study took FT1D（fulminant type 1 diabetes） as the research object, collected the cases of FT1D patients, and described the clinical characteristics of this type of disease. The HLA susceptibility genes of FT1D were identified by PCR and other techniques, taking age-sex-matched healthy subjects as controls and HLA genes as the research entry point.

1. FT1D cases related to different etiologies were collected. The collected case data were the clinical data at the time of hospitalization for the first episode of FT1D, including the history of present illness, past history, vital signs, blood glucose at the onset, blood gas analysis, myocardial enzymes, pancreatic enzymes, glycosylated hemoglobin, C Peptides, islet autoantibodies and other laboratory indicators. Analysis and research are carried out according to factors such as the pathogenesis of the patients, so as to conduct a complete analysis of the pathogenesis characteristics of such patients under the condition of expanding cases, so as to improve the understanding of the disease and the level of diagnosis and treatment of the disease.
2. The study collected 240 patients in the FT1D group and 250 patients in the control group with genetic blood (previous research has been available), analyzed the HLA gene, and compared the risk and frequency of HLA class II alleles, genotypes and haplotypes between the two groups. , to explore the susceptibility risk genes and protective properties of Chinese FT1D patients. According to GADA positive and negative, the comparison of the susceptibility of Chinese FT1D class II HLA genotype, from the perspective of genetics to explore the role of antibodies in the pathogenesis of FT1D.
