Adult-onset autoimmune diabetes tied to impaired whole-body insulin sensitivity

A German study in The Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism showed that patients with recently diagnosed adult-onset autoimmune diabetes had similar insulin sensitivity rates with those with type 1 diabetes and healthy controls but significantly higher than type 2 diabetes patients, as well as beta-cell function higher than type 1 diabetes patients but lower than those with type 2 diabetes and controls.
