Recommendations

As issued by the authors

  1. Partnerships should be fostered between endocrinologists and primary-care providers to care for people who are IAb+

  2. When people who are IAb+ are initially identified, confirmation using a second sample is needed

  3. Single IAb+ individuals are at lower risk of progression than multiple IAb+ individuals

  4. Individuals with early-stage type 1 diabetes should have periodic medical monitoring, including regular glucose assessments, regular education about symptoms of diabetes and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), and psychosocial support

  5. Interested people with stage 2 type 1 diabetes should be offered trial participation or approved therapies

  6. All health professionals involved in monitoring and care of individuals with type 1 diabetes have a responsibility to provide education
