Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is a unique subtype of type 1 diabetes, characterized by acute absolute insulin deficiency, severe ketosis, and increased risk of hypoglycemia, glycemic variability and microvascular complications. Seven people with FT1D were identified from two tertiary centers in Singapore. Six were Chinese, the mean age was 35 years and all were lean (mean body mass index 20.3 kg/m2). All presented with diabetes ketosis or ketoacidosis and low C-peptide. All but one had low glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies. Nearly half had a missed/delayed diagnosis of FT1D. Three had frequent hypoglycemia, which improved after transition to continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion therapy. Individuals with FT1D experience unique diagnostic and management challenges associated with rapid absolute insulin deficiency. Greater awareness about this clinical entity is required.

Abstract
The shock in diabetes often requires rapid and adequate fluid administration, however, we report an anomalous case of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) in which the patient's condition worsened following fluid administration. In May 2020, a 29-year-old male presented with blood glucose of 89.8 mmol/L and diabetic ketoacidosis after a week of gastroenteritis. The diagnosis was finalized after C-peptide and Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) measurement. The patient was admitted with shock and received a positive fluid balance of 2800 ml in 5 h, but his condition deteriorated and progressed to multi-organ failure. This study attempts to explain the possible mechanisms and focuses on high-risk factors associated with FT1DM. Therefore, meticulous monitoring and individualized fluid administration strategies are crucial for the management of FT1DM. This case provides beneficial insights for clinical treatment of this condition.

Abstract
PURPOSE To analyze the prevalence and progression of fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) in Qatar. METHODS This retrospective study analyzed consecutive index- diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) admissions (2015-2020) among patients with new-onset T1D (NT1D) in Qatar. RESULTS Of the 242 patients, 2.5% fulfilled the FT1D diagnostic criteria. FT1D patients were younger (median-age 4-years vs.15-years in classic-T1D). Gender distribution in FT1D was equal, whereas the classic-T1D group showed a female predominance at 57.6% (n = 136). FT1D patients had a mean C-peptide of 0.11 ± 0.09 ng/ml, compared to 0.53 ± 0.45 ng/ml in classic-T1D. FT1D patients had a median length of stay (LOS) of 1 day (1-2.2) and a DKA duration of 11.25 h (11-15). The median (length of stay) LOS and DKA duration in classic-T1D patients were 2.5 days (1-3.9) and 15.4 h (11-23), respectively. The FT1D subset primarily consisted of moderate (83.3%) and severe 916.7%) DKA, whereas classic T1D had 25.4% mild, 60.6% moderate, and 14% severe DKA cases. FT1D was associated with a higher median white cell count (22.3 × 103/uL) at admission compared to classic T1D (10.6 × 103/uL). ICU admission was needed for 66.6% of FT1D patients, compared to 38.1% of classic-T1D patients. None of the patients in the FT1D group had mortality, while two died in the classic-T1D group. CONCLUSION This is the first study establishing the existence of FT1D in ME, which presented distinctively from classic-T1D, exhibiting earlier age onset and higher critical care requirements. However, the clinical outcomes in patients with FT1D seem similar to classic T1D.

Abstract
Tyrosine kinase 2 (TYK2), a member of the JAK family, has attracted attention as a potential therapeutic target for autoimmune diseases. However, the role of TYK2 in CD8+ T cells and autoimmune type 1 diabetes (T1D) is poorly understood. In this study, we generate Tyk2 gene knockout non-obese diabetes (NOD) mice and demonstrate that the loss of Tyk2 inhibits the development of autoreactive CD8+ T-BET+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) by impairing IL-12 signaling in CD8+ T cells and the CD8+ resident dendritic cell-driven cross-priming of CTLs in the pancreatic lymph node (PLN). Tyk2-deficient CTLs display reduced cytotoxicity. Increased inflammatory responses in β-cells with aging are dampened by Tyk2 deficiency. Furthermore, treatment with BMS-986165, a selective TYK2 inhibitor, inhibits the expansion of T-BET+ CTLs, inflammation in β-cells and the onset of autoimmune T1D in NOD mice. Thus, our study reveals the diverse roles of TYK2 in driving the pathogenesis of T1D.

World J Clin Cases 2024; 12:787-794.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) that occurs during pregnancy or the perinatal period is known as pregnancy-related FT1DM (PF), always without history of abnormal glucose metabolism. Here, we present four patients who developed FT1DM during treatment but were first diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). CASE SUMMARY The clinical data of four patients with GDM combined with FT1DM admitted to our hospital between July 2018 and April 2021 were collected, and the patients and their infants were followed up. All patients were diagnosed with GDM during the second trimester and were treated. The blood glucose level elevated suddenly during the third trimester and then were diagnosed with FT1DM. Two patients had an insulin allergy, and two had symptoms of upper respiratory tract infection before onset. One patient developed ketoacidosis, and three developed ketosis. Two patients had cesarean section deliveries, and two had vaginal deliveries. The growth and development of the infants were normal. C-peptide levels were lower than those at onset, suggesting progressive impairment of islet function. The frequencies of the DRB1 09:01, DQB1 03: 03, DQA1 03:02, DPA1 01:03, DPA1 02:02, DPB1 05:01, DRB4 01:03, G 01:01, and G 01:04 human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-G alleles were high in the present study. CONCLUSION In comparison with pregnancy-associated FT1DM (PF), patients with GDM combined with FT1DM had an older age of onset, higher body mass index, slower onset, fewer prodromal symptoms, and less acidosis. The pathogenesis may be due to various factors affecting the already fragile β-cells of GDM patients with genetically susceptible class II HLA genotypes. We speculate that GDM combined with FT1DM during pregnancy, referred to as "double diabetes," is a subtype of PF with its own unique characteristics that should be investigated further.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is a novel type of type 1 diabetes that is caused by extremely rapid destruction of the pancreatic β cells. Early diagnosis or prediction of FT1D is critical for the prevention or timely treatment of diabetes ketoacidosis, which can be life-threatening. Understanding its triggers or promoting factors plays an important role in the prevention and treatment of FT1D. In this review, we summarised the various triggering factors of FT1D, including susceptibility genes, immunological factors (cellular and humoural immunity), immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies, drug reactions with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms or drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome, pregnancy, viral infections, and vaccine inoculation. This review provides the basis for future research into the pathogenetic mechanisms that regulate FT1D development and progression to further improve the prognosis and clinical management of patients with FT1D.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are promising treatment options for various cancers. However, their use is associated with immune-related adverse events (irAEs), including ICI-induced diabetes mellitus (ICI-DM). This study aimed to investigate the clinical features of ICI-DM, with a particular focus on alterations to pancreatic volume. METHODS We conducted a retrospective review of 2829 patients who received ICI treatment at the Chang Gung Memorial Hospital, Linkou, between January 2014 and December 2021. New-onset diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) was identified in ten patients receiving ICI therapy. Pancreatic volumes were assessed by manual segmentation of computed tomography (CT) images before and after ICI-DM diagnosis. RESULTS Among these ten patients, nivolumab was the most commonly used ICI (50.0%), followed by pembrolizumab (30.0%) and atezolizumab (20.0%). One patient received combination therapy with nivolumab and ipilimumab. The median age was 63.01 years (range: 40.1 - 87.8). ICI-DM developed after a median of 13.5 cycles (range: 2 - 42) of ICI treatment or 9.85 months (range:1.5 - 21.3) since ICI initiation. The initial presentation was DKA in 60.0% of patients. All patients had low or undetectable C-peptide levels (range: <0.033 - 0.133 nmol/L) and were negative for most type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM)-related autoantibodies; only one patient tested positive for glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies. CT imaging revealed significant pancreatic atrophy, with a median pancreatic volume decrease of 19.92% (P = 0.038) from baseline and sustained significant decline at last follow-up (median - 37.14%, P = 0.012). CONCLUSIONS ICI-DM is often accompanied by pancreatic atrophy and approximately two-thirds of patients initially present with DKA. Although the majority of ICI-DM patients lack T1DM-related autoantibodies, identifying diminished pancreatic volumes through CT imaging provides valuable clues into the subclinical aspects of ICI-DM development, aiding in the prevention of diabetic emergencies.

Abstract
The aetiology of type 1 diabetes (T1D) is considered multifactorial with the contribution of the MHC on chromosome 6 being most important. Multiple factors also contribute to the aetiology of colorectal neoplasia, but the final event causing the change from normal mucosa to polyp and from polyp to cancer is due to a single somatic mutation event. Repeated formation of colorectal neoplasia within an at-risk population results in a predictable, tapering, exponential neoplasia distribution. Critical mutations driving colorectal neoplasia formation occur in mutation-prone DNA. These observations led to three hypotheses related to T1D. First, a single somatic mutation within the MHC of antigen presenting cells results in a change in phenotype from normal to T1D. Second, the distribution of additional autoimmune diseases (AAIDs) among persons with T1D adheres to a predictable, tapering, exponential distribution. And third, critical mutations driving development of T1D occur in mutation-prone DNA. To address the hypotheses in an orderly fashion, a new analytical method called genome-wide aetiology analysis (GWEA) consisting of nine steps is presented. All data required for GWEA of T1D are obtained from peer-reviewed publications or publicly available genome and proteome databases. Critical GWEA steps include AAID distribution among persons with T1D, analysis of at-risk HLA loci for mutation-prone DNA, determination of the role of non-MHC genes on GWAS, and verification of human data by cell culture or animal experiments. GWEA results show that distribution of AAID among persons with T1D adheres to a predictable, tapering, exponential distribution. A single, critical, somatic mutation within the epitope-binding groove of at-risk HLA loci alters HLA-insulin-peptide-T-cell-receptor (TCR) complex binding affinity and creates a new pathway that leads to loss of self-tolerance. The at-risk HLA loci, in particular binding pockets P1, P4 and P9, are encoded by mutation-prone DNA: GC-rich DNA sequence and somatic hypermutation hotspots. All other genes on GWAS can but do not have to amplify the new autoimmune pathway by facilitating DNA mutations, changing peptide binding affinity, reducing signal inhibition or augmenting signal intensity. Animal experiments agree with human studies. In conclusion, T1D is caused by a somatic mutation within the epitope-binding groove of an at-risk HLA gene that affects HLA-insulin-peptide-TCR complex binding affinity and initiates an autoimmune pathway. The nature of the peptide that binds to a mutated epitope-binding groove of an at-risk HLA gene determines the type of autoimmune disease that develops, that is, one at-risk HLA locus, multiple autoimmune diseases. Thus, T1D and AAIDs, and therefore common autoimmune diseases, share a similar somatic mutation-based aetiology.

Abstract
Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) is rare in pregnancy, especially in pregnant women with normal glucose tolerance examined in early pregnancy. Once DKA occurs in pregnancy, the disease progresses rapidly and can be life-threatening for both mother and fetus. We concluded three cases of DKA in late pregnancy. The clinical manifestations, progression, and prognosis of the three cases are different, but all of the cases have normal glucose tolerance. We summarized the characteristics of pregnant women with DKA and analyzed and discussed them in conjunction with literature for reference by clinical doctors.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes is a subtype of type 1 diabetes in which beta cells are destroyed within days or a few weeks. The first criterion indicates a rise in blood glucose levels shown in the patient's history. The second suggests that the increase occurs suddenly within a very short period, as shown by the laboratory findings of the discrepancy between the glycated hemoglobin concentration and plasma glucose level. The third indicates a marked reduction in endogenous insulin secretion, which indicates almost complete destruction of beta cells. Fulminant type 1 diabetes is a common subtype in East Asian countries, including Japan, but rare in Western countries. Class II human leukocyte antigen and other genetic factors may have contributed to the skewed distribution. Environmental factors may also be involved including entero and herpes viruses and immune regulation during drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome; pregnancy may also affect it. In contrast, treatment with an immune checkpoint inhibitor of the anti-programmed cell death 1 antibody induces similar characteristics and incidence of diabetes as fulminant type 1 diabetes. Further studies are needed to clarify the etiology and clinical characteristics of fulminant type 1 diabetes. Although the incidence of this disease differs between the East and West, it is life-threatening; thus, it is important to diagnose fulminant type 1 diabetes without delay and treat it appropriately.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes is a relatively new subtype of type 1 diabetes characterised by a sudden onset of severe diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in patients with no history of diabetes and can cause imminent death if untreated. We discuss a rare case of a Pacific Islander woman who was 36 weeks pregnant and presented to the emergency department with DKA and fetal death in utero having had a normal glucose tolerance test 4 weeks earlier. She was diagnosed with fulminant type 1 diabetes and was treated with an intravenous insulin-dextrose infusion. She delivered a stillborn female infant and was discharged on regular subcuticular insulin. This case is helpful in understanding a rare, lethal disease that is not well reported globally and especially in Australia, as it requires prompt recognition and treatment to prevent detrimental outcomes.

Abstract
Vaccines against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been used worldwide since the 2020 coronavirus pandemic. However, several negative side-effects of these vaccines have been reported. Herein, we present a case of a patient with fulminant type 1 diabetes that developed shortly after administration of the SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. A 47-year-old man with no medical history presented with hyperglycemia-related symptoms shortly after receiving the third messenger ribonucleic acid SARS-CoV-2 vaccine. Based on hyperglycemia, diabetic ketoacidosis at onset, relatively low hemoglobin A1c levels, and complete depletion of endogenous insulin secretion, the patient was diagnosed with fulminant type 1 diabetes and insulin therapy was initiated. Through human leukocyte antigen genotyping, the disease-susceptible alleles for type 1 diabetes, DRB1*04:05 and DQB1*04:01, were identified. The patient tested positive for serum anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies, which are normally negative for fulminant type 1 diabetes, implying that immunomodulation triggered by SARS-CoV-2 vaccination influenced the onset of type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
BACKGROUND With the increasing application of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) in cancer therapy, the occurrence of isolated adrenocorticotropic hormone deficiency (IAD), as an adverse effect, is also on the rise. Nevertheless, there are only a few studies regarding IAD induced by ICI. This study aimed at investigating the characteristics of IAD induced by ICI and its relationship with other endocrine adverse events. METHODS A retrospective study was conducted in the Endocrinology Department from January 2019 to August 2022 to investigate characteristics of patients with IAD. Clinical features, laboratory findings and treatment information were collected. All patients underwent a follow-up of 3-6-month. RESULTS 28 patients with IAD were enrolled. All patients received treatment with anti-PD-1/ PD-L1. The median occurrence time of IAD was 24 (18-39) weeks after initiation of ICI treatment. Over half of the patients (53.5%) had an additional endocrinopathy, including primary hypothyroidism and fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM), while other types of endocrinopathies were not identified. The interval between the occurrences of two gland damages was between 4 and 21 weeks or simultaneous. Primary hypothyroidism (46.4%) was more prevalent than FT1DM (7.1%). Fatigue and nausea were common symptoms, with a frequent occurrence of hyponatremia. All patients continued on oral glucocorticoids during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS IAD induced by ICI could manifest independently, or more frequently in combination with hypothyroidism or FT1DM. This damage could happen at any point of ICI treatment. Given that IAD can be life-threatening, it is critical to evaluate pituitary function dynamically in patients undergoing immunotherapy.

Abstract
Objective Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are associated with diabetes, but their role in fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is unclear. Thus, we characterized the role of circRNAs in FT1D. Research design and methods CircRNA expression profiles were detected in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of five FT1D patients and five controls using a circRNA microarray. An independent cohort comprised of 40 FT1D cases, 75 type 1 diabetes (T1D) cases, and 115 controls was used to verify the circRNAs using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR). Spearman's correlation analysis and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis were performed to determine the clinical diagnostic capability of circRNAs. Bioinformatics was used to identify potential biological functions and circRNA-miRNA-mRNA interactions. Results There were 13 upregulated and 13 downregulated circRNAs in PBMCs of patients with FT1D. Five circRNAs were further verified in a second cohort. Hsa_circRNA_100632 was significantly upregulated in the FT1D and T1D groups. Hsa_circRNA_100632 was differentiated between patients with FT1D and controls [area under the curve (AUC) 0.846; 95% CI 0.776-0.916; P<0.0001] as well as between patients with FT1D and patients with T1D (AUC 0.726; 95% CI 0.633-0.820; P<0.0001). Bioinformatics analysis showed that hsa_circRNA_100632 may be involved in 47 circRNA-miRNA-mRNA signaling pathways associated with diabetes. Conclusions CircRNAs were aberrantly expressed in PBMCs of patients with FT1D, and hsa_circRNA_100632 may be a diagnostic marker of FT1D.

Re-Enlightenment of Fulminant Type 1 Diabetes under the COVID-19 Pandemic. BIOLOGY 2022; 11:biology11111662.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is a subtype of type 1 diabetes (T1D) that is characterized by the rapid progression to diabetic ketoacidosis against the background of rapid and almost complete pancreatic islet destruction. The HbA1c level at FT1D onset remains normal or slightly elevated despite marked hyperglycemia, reflecting the rapid clinical course of the disease, and is an important marker for diagnosis. FT1D often appears following flu-like symptoms, and there are many reports of its onset being linked to viral infections. In addition, disease-susceptibility genes have been identified in FT1D, suggesting the involvement of host factors in disease development. In most cases, islet-related autoantibodies are not detected, and histology of pancreatic tissue reveals macrophage and T cell infiltration of the islets in the early stages of FT1D, suggesting that islet destruction occurs via an immune response different from that occurring in autoimmune type 1 diabetes. From 2019, coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) spread worldwide and became a serious problem. Reports on the association between SARS-CoV-2 and T1D are mixed, with some suggesting an increase in T1D incidence due to the COVID-19 pandemic. When discussing the association between COVID-19 and T1D, it is also necessary to focus on FT1D. However, it is not easy to diagnose this subtype without understanding the concept. Therefore, authors hereby review the concept and the latest findings of FT1D, hoping that the association between COVID-19 and T1D will be adequately evaluated in the future.

Abstract
Background: Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) is a new subtype of type 1 diabetes, first proposed by Japanese scholars in 2000. Herein, the functions of the islets are rapidly destroyed. Its pathogenesis is related to viral infection. Most people have been infected with Epstein–Barr virus (EBV), and many people have also suffered from drug hypersensitivity, however, few cases of FT1DM which were caused by both of the two conditions have been reported. Thus, below, we describe one such valuable case.Case Summary: The plasma glucose levels of a 73‐year‐old man diagnosed with drug-induced dermatitis showed a sudden increase (42 mmol/L) during methylprednisolone therapy. The urine ketone test was positive. The glycated hemoglobin level was 7%, endogenous insulin secretion decreased significantly, and the islet-related autoantibodies were negative. The patient was diagnosed with FT1DM. The lymphocyte EBV-DNA showed high copies numbers. The general condition of the patient improved after symptomatic treatment with insulin. However, the systemic allergic reaction aggravated after the use of iodinated contrast agents, prednisone, and thymic pentapeptide. The re-test for EBV-DNA showed significantly high relative levels, thus indicating the presence of EBV infection. We think that drug hypersensitivity and EBV infection together led to FT1DM in this case. After an indication for multiple daily insulin therapy, the patient’s blood glucose was quickly controlled and he was discharged on the 38th-day post-admission.Conclusion: FT1DM is a rare case, however, drug hypersensitivity and EBV infection are not rare in the population. This is a rare case of FT1DM caused by drug hypersensitivity reaction and EBV infection. Through this case report, we emphasize the importance of the relationship between drug hypersensitivity, EBV infection and FT1DM and vigilance for the occurrence of FT1DM among hypersensitive individuals in clinical practice.

Abstract
Summary Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) is characterised by extremely rapid destruction of pancreatic beta cells. An association between FT1DM and pregnancy has been reported and can lead to unfavourable pregnancy outcomes without timely treatment. We report a case of FT1DM in a pregnancy with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), the first of its kind in the English literature to date. A 27-year-old woman with insulin-requiring GDM presented with rapidly deteriorating glycaemic control in her third trimester of pregnancy despite good concordance to treatment. The investigation identified the hallmarks of FT1DM: hyperglycaemia with acute metabolic decompensation and non-immune-mediated beta-cell failure. She received prompt treatment with intravenous insulin therapy and was transitioned to subcutaneous insulin once biochemical improvement had been achieved, albeit with higher insulin requirements than before. She had a good pregnancy outcome and delivered a healthy male infant 5 weeks later through induction of labour. Due to persistent beta-cell dysfunction, she remained on basal-bolus insulin postpartum. This case highlights the importance of early recognition and treatment of FT1DM in pregnancy to prevent adverse maternal and fetal prognoses. Learning points Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) is a subtype of type 1 diabetes characterised by extremely rapid beta-cell destruction, leading to abrupt-onset hyperglycaemia with ketosis or ketoacidosis. The pathognomonic characteristics of FT1DM include the development of diabetic ketosis or ketoacidosis typically within 7 days after the onset of symptoms of hyperglycaemia, a near-normal level of glycated haemoglobin despite elevated plasma glucose levels and the absence of islet cell autoantibodies. The pathophysiology of FT1DM is unclear but the association with genetic predisposition, viral infection and pregnancy has been reported. Due to its predilection for pregnancy, clinicians should have a high index of suspicion for FT1DM in pregnant women with rapidly progressing hyperglycaemic ketoacidosis. As diabetic ketoacidosis in pregnancy is associated with adverse maternal and fetal outcomes, immediate initiation of treatment in pregnant women with suspected FT1DM is extremely vital to prevent morbidity and mortality, even if investigations are still underway. Patients with FT1DM require lifelong insulin therapy due to the complete loss of beta-cell function.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) is recognised as a novel subtype of type 1 diabetes mellitus characterised by the abrupt onset of insulin-deficient hyperglycaemia and ketoacidosis. Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus is known to be associated with pregnancy and had been associated with high fetal mortality. We report a case of a gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) mother complicated with FT1DM immediately post-delivery. A 29-year-old Malay lady who was diagnosed with GDM at 19 weeks of pregnancy, underwent emergency lower segment caesarean section (EMLSCS) due to fetal distress at 36 weeks of gestation; 18 h post-EMLSCS, she developed abrupt onset Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) (blood glucose 33.5 mmol/L, pH 6.99, bicarbonate 3.6 mmol/L, ketone 4.4 mmol/L and HbA1c 6.1%). She received standard DKA treatment and discharged well. Her plasma C-peptide level 3 weeks later showed that she has no insulin reserve (C-peptide <33 pmol/L, fasting blood glucose (FBS) 28 mmol/L). Her pancreatic autoantibodies were negative. This case highlights that FT1DM not only can occur in pregnancy with normal glucose tolerance but can also complicate mother with GDM.

Abstract
Type 1 diabetes, in part, has been recently reported as a side effect of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). The frequency of type 1 diabetes related to ICIs is estimated to be ∼3.5%. However, type 1 diabetes related to ICIs often presents with diabetic ketoacidosis or ketosis within approximately 2 weeks after hyperglycemic symptoms, such as dry mouth, polydipsia, and polyuria, necessitating urgent diagnosis and insulin treatment. Endogenous insulin secretion is depleted within 3 weeks of the clinical onset of type 1 diabetes. Moreover, the positive rate for islet-related autoantibodies has been shown to vary from 5% to 50%, and exocrine pancreatic enzyme levels are mildly increased. Thus, the clinical course of type 1 diabetes associated with ICIs is similar to that of fulminant type 1 diabetes. In this review, we describe the clinical features of type 1 diabetes associated with ICIs.

Abstract
AIMS AND OBJECTIVES Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) could present diabetes ketoacidosis (DKA) at early onset. It is crucial to identify FT1D from DKA manifestations in time at clinical practice. This study was aimed at investigating whether the fulminant index (FI), encompassing plasma glucose (PG) to glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ratio (PG/HbA1c), serum potassium ion (K+ ) to HbA1c ratio (K+ /HbA1c) and serum sodium ion (Na+ ) multiplied by HbA1c (Na+ *HbA1c), is a feasible indicator for early FT1D diagnosis. MATERIALS AND METHODS A total of 78 subjects were enroled, including 40 FT1D patients and 38 non-FT1D patients with DKA. We utilised receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis to determine the FI cut-off values between FT1D and non-FT1D groups and examined efficacies of FI based on statistics. RESULTS ROC curve analyses showed that the maximum Youden's index for PG/HbA1c bonding to a cut-off value of 4.389, with the sensitivity of 75.0% and specificity of 81.6% in identifying FT1D from DKA. And optimal K+ /HbA1c cut-off value was 0.728 with a sensitivity of 90.0% and specificity of 84.2%. For Na+ *HbA1c, the best cut-off value was 923.65, and its sensitivity and specificity were 85% and 73.7%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS These results suggested FI could work as a valid and convenient indicator for differentiating FT1D from initial DKA patients. FI (K+ /HbA1c) presented the best efficacy as an independent index.

Prevalence and clinical characteristics of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus in Korean adults: A multi-institutional joint research. J Diabetes Investig 2022; 13:47-53. [PMID: 34313011 PMCID: PMC8756324 DOI: 10.1111/jdi.13638] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/16/2021] [Revised: 07/07/2021] [Accepted: 07/21/2021] [Indexed: 01/15/2023] Open
Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We aimed to determine the hospital-based prevalence and clinical features of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus in Korea. MATERIALS AND METHODS We identified all patients with diabetes who regularly visited the Endocrinology outpatient clinics at eight centers for a period >1 year between January 2012 and June 2017. We investigated their medical records retrospectively. RESULTS During this period, 76,309 patients with diabetes had been regularly followed up. Among them, 913 (1.2%) patients had type 1 diabetes mellitus . There were 462 patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus whose data at the time of the first diagnosis could be identified (359 and 103 with non-ketosis and ketosis onset, respectively). Of these, 15 (3.2% of type 1 diabetes mellitus, 14.6% of ketosis onset diabetes) patients had fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus. The median ages at diagnosis were 40 and 27 years in the fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus and non-fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus groups, respectively. The patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus had higher body mass index, lower glycated hemoglobin and fasting/peak C-peptide, and lower frequent glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody-positive rate (P =0.0010) at diagnosis. Furthermore, they had lower glycated hemoglobin at the last follow-up examination than those with non-fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus. CONCLUSIONS In this study, the prevalence of type 1 diabetes mellitus was 1.2% among all patients with diabetes, and that of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus was 3.2% among those newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus. The glycated hemoglobin levels were lower in patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus than in those with non-fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus at diagnosis and at the last follow-up examination.

Abstract
The management of diabetes mellitus in an insulin-dependent patient is challenging in the setting of concomitant antibody-mediated-insulin hypersensitivity. We report a case of a 62-year-old woman with pre-existing type 2 diabetes mellitus of 10 years duration who developed type 3 hypersensitivity reaction to insulin analogue detemir, and subsequently, severe diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). She was C-peptide negative and was diagnosed with insulin-dependent diabetes. Despite increasing dose adjustments, insulin-meal matching, and compliance with insulin, she experienced episodes of unexpected hyperglycaemia and hypoglycaemia. The development of rash after detemir initiation and rapid progression to DKA suggests an aberrant immune response leading to the insulin allergy and antibody-induced interference with insulin analogues. Glycaemic control in the patient initially improved after being started on subcutaneous insulin infusion pump with reduced insulin requirements. However, after a year on pump therapy, localised insulin hypersensitivity reactions started, and glycaemic control gradually deteriorated.

Abstract
AIMS Aim of this study is to report severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, responsible for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), as a possible cause for type 1 diabetes by providing an illustrative clinical case of a man aged 45 years presenting with antibody-negative diabetic ketoacidosis post-recovery from COVID-19 pneumonia and to explore the potential for SARS-CoV-2 to adhere to human islet cells. METHODS Explanted human islet cells from three independent solid organ donors were incubated with the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein receptor biding domain (RBD) fused to a green fluorescent protein (GFP) or a control-GFP, with differential adherence established by flow cytometry. RESULTS Flow cytometry revealed dose-dependent specific binding of RBD-GFP to islet cells when compared to control-GFP. CONCLUSIONS Although a causal basis remains to be established, our case and in vitro data highlight a potential mechanism by which SARS-CoV-2 infection may result in antibody-negative type 1 diabetes.

Abstract
Pembrolizumab is an anti-cancer drug that targets programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) receptors on lymphocytes resulting in their activation against tumour cells. PD-1 receptors are also interspersed in endocrine organs and pembrolizumab use has long been associated with hypophysitis and thyroiditis. Since the introduction of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), several cases of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) have been reported. However, it is unclear if FT1DM and ICI-induced diabetes are the same pathology. We review the existing literature of ICI-induced diabetes to investigate its nature and to what extent it represents type 1A diabetes and/or FT1DM (type 1B diabetes) using an example case. Our review showed that ICI-induced diabetes may be a different entity to FT1DM. Furthermore, there is limited evidence for the management of ICI-induced T1DM. Further research into its pathophysiology will improve management and possibly prevent this burdensome complication.

Sodium-glucose co-transporter-2 inhibitor-associated euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis that prompted the diagnosis of fulminant type-1 diabetes: A case report. World J Clin Cases 2021; 9:3163-3169. [PMID: 33969104 PMCID: PMC8080741 DOI: 10.12998/wjcc.v9.i13.3163] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2020] [Revised: 01/26/2021] [Accepted: 03/11/2021] [Indexed: 02/06/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) is a subtype of type 1 diabetes mellitus characterized by an abrupt onset and a rapid and complete functional loss of islet β cells. It is a very rare disease generally associated with ketoacidosis and the absence of circulating pancreatic islet-related autoantibodies. Diabetic ketoacidosis with normal blood glucose levels has been reported during sodium-glucose co-transporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitor therapy.
CASE SUMMARY The patient was a 43-year-old woman that consulted a medical practitioner for malaise, thirst, and vomiting. Blood analysis showed high blood glucose levels (428 mg/dL), a mild increase of hemoglobin A1c (6.6%), and increased ketone bodies in urine. The patient was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The patient was initially treated with insulin, which was subsequently changed to an oral SGLT2 inhibitor. Antibodies to glutamic acid decarboxylase were negative. Four days after receiving oral SGLT2 inhibitor, she consulted at Mie University Hospital, complaining of fatigue and vomiting. Laboratory analysis revealed diabetic ketoacidosis with almost normal blood glucose levels. The endogenous insulin secretion was markedly low, and the serum levels of islet-related autoantibodies were undetectable. We made the diagnosis of FT1DM with concurrent SGLT2 inhibitor-associated euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis. The patient's general condition improved after therapy with intravenous insulin and withdrawal of oral medication. She was discharged on day 14 with an indication of multiple daily insulin therapy.
CONCLUSION This patient is a rare case of FT1DM that developed SGLT2 inhibitor-associated diabetic ketoacidosis with almost normal blood glucose levels. This case report underscores the importance of considering the diagnosis of FT1DM in patients with negative circulating autoantibodies and a history of hyperglycemia that subsequently develop euglycemic diabetic ketoacidosis following treatment with a SGLT2 inhibitor.

Abstract
We report on the transition in blood glucose levels before and after the onset of fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus in a perinatal woman. In week 38 of pregnancy, before which the patient had normal glucose tolerance, idiopathic acute pancreatitis was diagnosed. Five days thereafter, she became hypoglycemic, so we closely monitored her blood glucose levels. A total of 13 days later, she was hyperglycemic with a blood glucose level >16.0 mmol/L and glycated hemoglobin of 6.4%. Her fasting serum C-peptide reactivity level was 3.6 ng/mL on the 5th day, and 0.2 ng/mL on the 18th day. Multiple insulin injection therapy was administered since the 18th day; after that, ketoacidosis did not occur. The patient was diagnosed with fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus based on hyperglycemia without high glycated hemoglobin levels and sudden onset insulin-dependent diabetes. Monitoring glucose levels in the case of idiopathic acute pancreatitis during pregnancy and prompt initiation of insulin therapy are important.

Abstract
Background Immune checkpoint inhibitors have recently become widely used for the management of advanced cancer patients. During the development of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICPIs), it was quickly recognized that they are associated with autoimmune or autoinflammatory side effects. These toxicities are known as immune-related adverse events (irAEs): common endocrine irAEs include hypophysitis and thyroid dysfunction, and uncommon irAEs include type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). Case presentation A 62-year-old Japanese man with metastatic renal cell carcinoma was treated with sunitinib followed by the 10th cycle of treatment with the ICPI nivolumab. He had already had thyroiditis and hypophysitis due to these anti-cancer drugs. On admission, he showed an extremely elevated plasma glucose level (601 mg/dl) and a low C-peptide level, and was diagnosed with acute T1DM. The patient was treated with intravenous fluid infusion and continuous insulin infusion. On the second day, he was switched to multiple daily injections of insulin therapy. Since these treatments, his blood glucose levels have been stable and he has been treated with an additional 10 ICPI treatments for renal cell carcinoma for over a year. Conclusions Treatment with ICPIs is expected to increase in the future. There may be cases in which their use for cancer treatment is inevitable despite the side effects. As long as treatment with ICPI continues, multiple side effects can be expected in some cases. It is important to carefully observe the side effects that occur during ICPI treatment and to provide appropriate treatment for each side effect.

Abstract
Aim: The programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) inhibitor, pembrolizumab, can exert anti-tumor effects and induce immune-related adverse events. Here, we for the first time describe a patient with metastatic breast cancer who developed fulminant Type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) during pembrolizumab treatment. Case presentation: A 61-year-old woman received seven cycles of postoperative pembrolizumab combined with tegafur treatment, and developed sudden thirst, polyuria, polydipsia and weight loss. Her laboratory tests contributed to the diagnosis of diabetes ketoacidosis. Her fasting and 2-h postprandial C-peptide levels were both below 0.05 ng/ml, further supporting the diagnosis of FT1DM associated with pembrolizumab administration. Conclusion: Our report highlights the significance of autoimmune diabetes as a rapid and serious adverse event induced by PD-1 inhibitor therapies.

OBJECTIVES To study the prevalence and clinical characteristics of islet antibody-negative (idiopathic) type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) among Indian children and adolescents at the time of diagnosis of illness. METHODS In a hospital-based cross-sectional study, we studied 110 patients with T1DM aged ≤18 years. This included 61 patients with duration of diabetes ≤2 weeks (mean ± SD age of onset 9.9 ± 4.4 years) and 49 patients with duration 2 to 12 weeks. Antibodies against GAD65 (GADA), IA-2 (IA-2A) and zinc transporter 8 (ZnT8A), detected by radio-binding assay, were measured in all patients. Insulin autoantibody (IAA) was measured only in subjects with duration ≤2 weeks, using a competitive radio-binding assay. RESULTS The prevalence of GADA, IA-2A, and ZnT8A was 53%, 34%, and 29% respectively, while IAA (measured in 61 patients) was detected in 31%. All four antibodies were absent in 17 of 61 (28%) patients. The prevalence of islet antibody-negative patients was similar among both sexes and in children with onset younger and older than 10 years. ZnT8A was the only antibody detected in four patients, and its measurement resulted in 6% reduction in islet antibody-negative patients. Patients with idiopathic T1DM did not differ in their clinical features or fasting plasma C-peptide at the onset and after follow-up of 1 year. Compared with idiopathic T1DM, antibody-positive patients had an increased allele frequency of HLA DRB1*0301 (46% vs 14%, OR = 5.10 [confidence interval = 1.61-16.16], P = .003). CONCLUSION Nearly 30% of Indian patients were negative for all islet antibodies at the onset of T1DM. Patients with idiopathic T1DM had similar clinical features to antibody-positive subjects.

Classic Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus and Fulminant Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus: Similarity and Discrepancy of Immunological Characteristics and Cytokine Profile. Diabetes Metab Syndr Obes 2021; 14:4661-4670. [PMID: 34876826 PMCID: PMC8643161 DOI: 10.2147/dmso.s334712] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 11/16/2021] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
PURPOSE We aimed to explore the immunological characteristics and cytokine profile of the initial stage of type 1 diabetes. PATIENTS AND METHODS In total, 123 age- and sex-matched subjects with newly diagnosed classic type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1ADM), fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM), and normal glucose tolerance (NGT) were enrolled. Serum cytokine levels were measured using Milliplex MAP multifactor detection. RESULTS There was a significant increase in the levels of transforming growth factor β (TGFβ1) and TGFβ2 and decrease in programmed death-1 (PD-1), PD ligand 1 (PD-L1), pro-inflammatory cytokines, and anti-inflammatory cytokines in type 1 diabetes patients compared with the NGT subjects (all P < 0.05). There was no significant difference in C-reactive protein (CRP) and blood routine indicators between the two groups. Type 1 diabetes was further divided into T1ADM and FT1DM subgroups. FT1DM patients had much higher CRP levels than T1ADM patients (4.90 [0.95-26.05] mg/L vs 0.39 [0.20-0.74] mg/L, P < 0.01). Blood routine results showed that the number of leukocytes was significantly increased in FT1DM compared with that in T1ADM (9.2 [5.1-18.8] × 109 cells/L vs 5.4 [4.5-6.7] × 109 cells/L, P < 0.01). In FT1DM patients, neutrophil% was increased, and lymphocyte% was declined significantly, compared with that in T1ADM patients (neutrophil%: 80.2 [59.2-85.2]% vs 59.5 [54.8-64.0]%; lymphocyte%: 18.3 [10.1-32.3]% vs 32.6 [26.8-35.9]%; both P < 0.01). However, there was no difference between FT1DM and T1ADM in cytokine profile except for the decrease in CTLA-4 in T1ADM (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Compared with T1ADM, CRP and leukocytes' levels were increased significantly in FT1DM, with an increase in neutrophil% and decline in lymphocyte%, suggesting that FT1DM may have more abrupt onset and occur as a more serious subtype of type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND AIMS New data has emerged regarding higher risk of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), and its severity and complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, there is a dearth of evidence regarding type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM). This article explores the possibility of COVID 19 induced diabetes and highlights a potential bidirectional link between COVID 19 and T1DM. METHODS A literature search was performed with Medline (PubMed), Scopus, and Google Scholar electronic databases till October 2020, using relevant keywords (COVID-19 induced diabetes; COVID-19 and type 1 diabetes; COVID-19 induced DKA; new-onset diabetes after SARS-CoV-2 infection) to extract relevant studies describing relationship between COVID-19 and T1DM. RESULTS Past lessons and new data teach us that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronaviruses (SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2) can enter islet cells via angiotensin converting enzyme-2 (ACE-2) receptors and cause reversible β-cell damage and transient hyperglycemia. There have been postulations regarding the potential new-onset T1DM triggered by COVID-19. This article reviews the available evidence regarding the impact and interlink between COVID-19 and Τ1DM. We also explore the mechanisms behind the viral etiology of Τ1DM. CONCLUSIONS SARS-CoV-2 can trigger severe diabetic ketoacidosis at presentation in individuals with new-onset diabetes. However, at present, there is no hard evidence that SARS-CoV-2 induces T1DM on it's own accord. Long term follow-up of children and adults presenting with new-onset diabetes during this pandemic is required to fully understand the type of diabetes induced by COVID-19.

Abstract
To clarify the clinical and etiological characteristics of fulminant type 1 diabetes, we reviewed data from patients who had developed type 1 diabetes following anti-programmed cell death 1/programmed cell death ligand 1 (anti-PD-1/PD-L1) therapy, and research on pancreatic beta cells derived from induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells from patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes. As determined from the disease classifications and clinical and genetic characteristics, anti-PD-1/PD-L1 therapy-related type 1 diabetes includes both fulminant type 1 diabetes and acute-onset type 1 diabetes. Using insulin-positive cells derived from iPS cells, beta-cell fragility to inflammatory cytokines, but not its regeneration failure, was observed in fulminant type 1 diabetes. Moreover, severe hyperglycemia was reported as a risk factor of sudden death or cardiac arrest at disease onset, diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging was suggested as an additional tool for making a diagnosis, and the CSAD/lnc-ITGB7-1 locus was genetically associated with fulminant type 1 diabetes. To fully understand fulminant type 1 diabetes, it is important to clarify the molecular mechanisms step by step through multifaceted approaches such as through analyses of the genetic factors, clinical features, histological findings, and cell biology. The careful and detailed study of patients is a great means for clarifying the etiology and pathophysiology of the disease.

Possible involvement of autoimmunity in fulminant type 1 diabetes. Diabetol Int 2020; 11:329-335.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is characterized by a relatively low HbA1c level at the onset, despite the abrupt occurrence of marked hyperglycemia with ketosis or ketoacidosis. The initial symptoms/findings are flu-like, absence of islet-associated autoantibodies, and a drastic decrease in β-cells and α-cells, which strongly suggest the involvement of a viral infection. In fact, we successfully demonstrated that a FT1D-like phenotype can be reproduced in encephalomyocarditis virus-induced diabetes murine model. However, there is a discussion on the possible involvement of autoimmunity rather than viral infection as the underlying cause of FT1D. For example, HLA-DRB1*04:05, a susceptible antigen of type 1A diabetes, is reportedly associated with FT1D in Japan. Moreover, anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody is reportedly detected in ~ 5% of the patients. Additionally, half of the patients with anti-programmed cell death-1 therapy-related type 1 diabetes fulfilled the criteria of the disease. These findings suggest that islet-associated autoimmunity can partially contribute to the development of FT1D. Furthermore, using nonobese diabetic mice with reduced regulatory T-cell (Treg) numbers, we found that a human FT1D-like phenotype can be induced by islet-associated autoimmunity through collaboration between innate immunity (macrophages and/or natural killer cells) and acquired immunity (predominantly cytotoxic CD8+ T cells) in genetically predisposed individuals of autoimmune type 1 diabetes with low Tregs or Treg dysfunction. To clarify greater details regarding the association of autoimmunity in the pathogenesis of FT1D, further studies using suitable animal models and accumulation of the relevant patients are required.

Abstract
Twenty years have passed since the first article on fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) was published. FT1D is characterized by an extremely rapid onset of ketoacidosis, high plasma glucose and, conversely, a near-normal glycosylated hemoglobin level. Digestive or flu-like symptoms frequently precede the onset of ketoacidosis. Patients are usually negative for islet-related autoantibodies, with near-complete destruction of pancreatic β-cells, even at the onset of disease. Massive infiltration of immunocytes (insulitis) can be seen in the islets of patients with new-onset FT1D, but this subsides within a few weeks. Early discovery and development of research on FT1D were carried out in Japan, with some reports from Korea and China. Recently, the recognition of FT1D as an immune-related adverse effect of immune-checkpoint inhibitor therapy for various malignant tumors in some patients has drawn the attention of Western countries. The discovery and successful establishment of FT1D as a disease entity was the product of three essential factors: (1) accumulated research data spanning more than 10 years; (2) fortuitous clinical observation; and (3) organization of a dedicated Japanese research committee. We anticipate that continued investigations of FT1D by a new generation of researchers will further elucidate the pathogenesis and yield new therapies.

Abstract
Objective Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is a type of type 1 diabetes, which is characterized by rapid onset of disease and severe metabolic disorders. We intend to screen for crucial genes and potential molecular mechanisms in FT1D in this study. Method We downloaded GSE44314, which includes six healthy controls and five patients with FT1D, from the GEO database. Identification of differentially expressed genes (DEGs) was performed by NetworkAnalyst. The Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) enrichment analyses of DEGs were screened by an online tool-Database for Annotation, Visualization, and Integration Discovery (DAVID). Protein-protein interaction (PPI) network and hub genes among DEGs were analyzed by NetworkAnalyst. And we also use NetworkAnalyst to find out the microRNAs (miRNAs) and transcription factors (TFs) which regulate the expression of DEGs. Result We identified 130 DEGs (60 upregulated and 70 downregulated DEGs) between healthy controls and FT1D patients. GO analysis results revealed that DEGs were mostly enriched in generation of precursor metabolites and energy, neurohypophyseal hormone activity, and mitochondrial inner membrane. KEGG pathway analysis demonstrated that DEGs were mostly involved in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease. Results indicated that NCOA1, SRF, ERBB3, EST1, TOP1, UBE2S, INO80, COX7C, ITGAV, and COX6C were the top hub genes in the PPI network. Furthermore, we recognized that LDLR, POTEM, IFNAR2, BAZ2A, and SRF were the top hub genes in the miRNA-target gene network, and SRF, TSPAN4, CD59, ETS1, and SLC25A25 were the top hub genes in the TF-target gene network. Conclusion Our study pinpoints key genes and pathways associated with FT1D by a sequence of bioinformatics analysis on DEGs. These identified genes and pathways provide more detailed molecular mechanisms of FT1D and may provide novel therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D) is a subset of type 1 diabetes characterized by extremely rapid pancreatic β-cell destruction with aggressive progression of hyperglycaemia and ketoacidosis. It was initially classified as idiopathic type 1 diabetes due to the absence of autoimmune markers. However, subsequent studies provide evidences supporting the involvement of autoimmunity in rapid β-cell loss in FT1D pathogenesis, which are crucial for FT1D being an autoimmune disease. This article highlights the role of immunological aspects in FT1D according to the autoimmune-associated genetic background, viral infection, innate immunity, adaptive immunity, and pancreas histology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1D) is a newly established subtype of type 1 diabetes. Its etiology has not been fully elucidated. Several cases with FT1D have exhibited pancreatitis or myocarditis. CASE PRESENTATION We report a 31-year-old Japanese woman who showed upper abdominal pain and was admitted to a local hospital. She was initially diagnosed with acute pancreatitis based on serum amylase elevation and swelling of the pancreas on computed tomography. Four days after admission, she developed diabetic ketoacidosis and was transferred to our hospital. Her symptoms and laboratory findings met the FT1D criteria. On the 3rd hospital day, electrocardiography (ECG) showed ST-segment elevation, and serum cardiac enzymes were markedly elevated. Because she exhibited late gadolinium enhancement in the apical wall on contrast-enhanced cardiac magnetic resonance imaging, she was diagnosed as acute myocarditis. Abnormal ECG findings and elevations of biomarkers associated with myocarditis showed improvement on the next day. CONCLUSIONS This is the first case of FT1D accompanied by both pancreatitis and myocarditis and suggests that the pathophysiology of FT1D is related to the common etiology of acute pancreatitis and myocarditis.

Abstract
Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) has received clinical attention for its low incidence and poor prognosis. Currently, few cases of FT1DM are associated with pregnancy in clinical practice, but it poses a great threat to the life of mothers and infants. Here, we present two cases of FT1DM in pregnancy. In Case 1, the patient was a 26-year-old woman who was admitted to the hospital with reduced fetal movement. She was diagnosed with FT1DM and delivered a dead female fetus. Lispro and lantus were administered to control blood glucose, and lipoic acid for antioxidant therapy. In Case 2, the patient was a 28-year-old woman who developed nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and polydipsia, which later proved to be FT1DM. An abortion was induced and blood glucose levels were controlled using an insulin pump. All physicians should be aware of this disease in order to provide prompt diagnosis and emergency treatment, thus improving maternal prognosis. We suggest that plasma glucose/hemoglobin A1C ratio be adopted as a new clinical parameter in predicting FT1DM.

Abstract
AIMS/INTRODUCTION We compared the results of testing for glutamic acid decarboxylase antibodies (GADAb) using a radioimmunoassay (RIA) and an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in individuals with childhood-onset type 1 diabetes mellitus. MATERIALS AND METHODS Serum specimens were collected from 1,024 Japanese children (426 boys and 598 girls) in 2013. The median age at diagnosis was 7 years (0-18 years). The blood specimens were obtained at a median age of 13 years (2-22 years). RESULTS Among the 628 children whose serum specimens were collected within 5 years after diagnosis, the rate of GADAb positivity was 47.9% using RIA and 69.4% using ELISA. The participants were divided into four groups according to their RIA and ELISA results for GADAb as follows: group I (RIA+/ELISA+), group II (RIA+/ELISA-), group III (RIA-/ELISA+) and group IV (RIA-/ELISA-). The clinical and genetic characteristics of group I and group III were quite similar in terms of age at diagnosis, male/female ratio, relatively high positive rates for both autoantibody to protein tyrosine phosphatase IA-2 and autoantibody to the cation efflux transporter zinc transporter 8, and human leukocyte antigen genotype. Group II contained just five patients, and was characterized by a younger age at diagnosis, low positive rates for both autoantibody to protein tyrosine phosphatase IA-2 and autoantibody to the cation efflux transporter zinc transporter 8, and a unique human leukocyte antigen genotype. If the positive rates of either autoantibody to protein tyrosine phosphatase IA-2 or autoantibody to the cation efflux transporter zinc transporter 8 or both were added to the GADAb results using RIA, the percentage of autoimmune type 1 diabetes increased from 47.9% to 78.5%. CONCLUSIONS The diagnosis of autoimmune childhood-onset Japanese type 1 diabetes increased when GADAb results were obtained using a new ELISA method, compared with a previously utilized RIA method.

Serum 1,5-Anhydroglucitol to Glycated Albumin Ratio Can Help Early Distinguish Fulminant Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus from Newly Onset Type 1A Diabetes Mellitus. J Diabetes Res 2020; 2020:1243630. [PMID: 32280712 PMCID: PMC7115050 DOI: 10.1155/2020/1243630] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/09/2019] [Accepted: 03/05/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Fulminant type 1 diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) onsets abruptly and usually occurs within 1 week after the onset of hyperglycemic symptoms. Glycated albumin (GA) and 1,5-anhydroglucitol (1,5-AG) are indicators that reflect short-term glucose levels. This study was aimed at investigating whether the 1,5-AG/GA index (AGI) is a suitable indicator for early FT1DM identification. METHODS A total of 226 subjects were enrolled, all with glycated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) < 8.7%. FT1DM was diagnosed based on the 2012 Japan Diabetes Society criteria. RESULTS The AGI level was 0.54 (0.17-1.36) in the whole group. It was lower in FT1DM patients (0.16 [0.10-0.25]). Among the participants whose HbA1c did not exceed 7.0%, the AGI of FT1DM decreased significantly compared to type 1A diabetes (T1ADM) and latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) patients (0.16 [0.12-0.26] vs. 0.46 [0.24-0.72] vs. 0.46 [0.24-0.72] P < 0.05). The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve showed that AGI can be used to distinguish FT1DM and T1ADM patients with HbA1c < 8.7%. Diagnosing FT1DM based on AGI ≤ 0.3 only can help narrow down suspected FT1DM by up to 26.87%. If we diagnosed FT1DM when AGI was ≤0.3 and HbA1c was ≤7.0%, the success rate further increased to 86.57%, among which 85.00% of FT1DM and 87.23% of T1ADM patients were successfully identified. Therefore, using the combination criteria of AGI and HbA1c would improve the differential diagnosis efficacy by 61.11% compared with the AGI criterion only. CONCLUSION AGI can help facilitate the early differential diagnosis of FT1DM and T1ADM when HbA1c < 8.7%, with an optimal cut-off point of 0.3.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Fulminant type l diabetes mellitus (FT1DM) is a subtype of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) with abrupt onset, but data on its progression was limited. This study was aimed at exploring the clinical features through one-year follow-up. Methods and Materials. Patients with T1DM finishing at least one-year follow-up from June 2011 to July 2018 were enrolled from Guangdong Type 1 Diabetes Translational Medicine Study. Patients who fulfilled the respective criteria were categorized as an FT1DM group and a typical T1DM group (TT1DM). The 1 : 4 propensity score matching based on onset age, duration, and gender was performed between the FT1DM and TT1DM groups. Characteristics at the onset and after one-year follow-up were compared between the two groups. RESULTS A total of 53 patients with FT1DM and 212 matched patients with TT1DM were included. At the onset, there was a shorter duration of symptomatic period before diagnosis observed in the FT1DM group than in the TT1DM group (2 [1, 7] vs. 30 [10, 60] days, P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (P < 0.001). FT1DM patients had higher plasma glucose levels and higher percentage of diabetes ketoacidosis (. CONCLUSION Patients with FT1DM had more severe metabolic derangement and deficiency of insulin secretion than patients with TT1DM at the onset, but glycaemic and metabolic control was not worse than that in TT1DM.

Abstract
We reviewed fulminant type 1 diabetes, a recently established subtype of type 1 diabetes, from the aspects of genes, viruses, immune mechanism and usefulness of patient-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). In an analysis of the pancreas of patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes, viral antigens and viral receptors were expressed in β-cells, as well as macrophages and T lymphocytes surrounding the β-cells. These findings suggest that the β-cells of patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes are destroyed during an immune response against viral infection of the pancreas. Recently, fulminant type 1 diabetes was induced by treatment with anti-programmed cell death 1 antibodies, suggesting that immune regulatory mechanisms are also involved in the onset of this disease. We generated iPSCs from patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes for the first time. We also successfully differentiated patient-derived iPSCs into insulin-producing cells in vitro, and produced a disease model. The proportion of cytokine-induced apoptotic cells among insulin-positive cells was higher in the iPSCs from patients with fulminant type 1 diabetes than in iPSCs from healthy control participants. We carried out ribonucleic acid sequencing in insulin-producing cells differentiated from patient-derived iPSCs, and are now attempting to identify new biomarkers for the disease.

Abstract
The patient was a 71-year-old woman with aquaporin-4-antibody positive neuromyelitis optica (NMO), with no history of diabetes. On admission, although she showed an extremely elevated plasma glucose level (1,080 mg/dL), her hemoglobin A1c level was low (7.1%), which indicated the rapid progression of diabetes. She also showed ketoacidosis and had a human leukocyte antigen haplotype, DRB1*09:01-DQB1*03:03 associated with Fulminant type 1 diabetes (FT1D). Based on these results, the patient was diagnosed with FT1D. We herein describe the first reported case of a patient with FT1D with NMO, which raises the possibility that T-cell-mediated autoimmunity is involved in the pathogenesis of both FT1D and NMO.

Abstract
Background Fulminant type 1 diabetes is characterized by an intrinsic insulin deficiency resulting from the severe destruction of pancreatic β cells and it rapidly leads to ketoacidosis. However, the association between fulminant type 1 diabetes in pregnancy and specific viral infections has not been reported. Case presentation The patient in this study was a 31-year-old Japanese woman, and at 30 weeks of pregnancy she was admitted with marked fatigue. Fetal bradycardia was noted, and the child was delivered by emergency cesarean section but was stillborn. The maternal blood sugar level was high (427 mg/dL), but the glycated hemoglobin value was 6.2%; therefore, fulminant type 1 diabetes was suspected. Serum antibody testing confirmed a Coxsackievirus B1 infection. The patient in this case had fulminant type 1 diabetes in pregnancy associated with Coxsackievirus B1. Conclusion This case highlights that fulminant type 1 diabetes in pregnancy may be associated with Coxsackievirus B1 infection.
