GADA Titer-Related Risk for Organ-Specific Autoimmunity in LADA Subjects Subdivided according to Gender (NIRAD Study 6)

Abstract

In LADA subjects, high GADA titer was associated with a profile of more severe autoimmunity and, in male gender, specifically predisposed to thyroid autoimmunity. A regular screening for other antibodies is recommended in LADA patients according to GADA titer and gender.
