The DiMelli study examines the different phenotypes of diabetes mellitus in relation to their immunological, metabolic and genetic profiles. Although the formation of autoantibodies is associated with specific clinical features such as metabolic markers, the various forms of diabetes cannot be clearly delineated on the basis of this association, and in many cases there is overlapping. The results of the study have now been published in the latest edition of the scientific journal PLOS ONE. In it, the scientists involved stress the importance of their findings towards developing a full understanding and a clear classification of diabetes.
