Insulin Autoimmune Syndrome as Part of Pre-Clinical LADA

Hypoglycemia presents relatively typical symptoms. However, when it occurs spontaneously – like in insulin autoimmune syndrome – it is difficult to perform scheduled biochemical tests at the laboratory. The study presents the case of a 31-year-old Caucasian female whose recurrent hypoglycemia sympto...

description Hypoglycemia presents relatively typical symptoms. However, when it occurs spontaneously – like in insulin autoimmune syndrome – it is difficult to perform scheduled biochemical tests at the laboratory. The study presents the case of a 31-year-old Caucasian female whose recurrent hypoglycemia symptoms were the reason for further diagnostics. The final results revealed a positive test for insulin autoantibody and glutamic acid decarboxylase autoantibody. Therefore, not only the potential causes of hypoglycemia but also an active autoimmune process typical for latent autoimmune diabetes in adults were confirmed. It was concluded that autoimmune hypoglycemia can be a part of the autoimmune process associated with diabetes and pre-diabetes in adults.
