Abstract:
Objective To explore the anti-islet cells in patients with chronic autoimmune thyroiditis. Methods Glutamate decarboxylase antibody was quantitatively detected by ELISA method, and the frequency of anti-GAD antibody in children with chronic autoimmune thyroiditis was compared with that in healthy control group. Results Of the 41 patients with chronic autoimmune thyroiditis, 4 (9.8%) were GAD antibody positive. The positive rate of GAD in chronic autoimmune thyroiditis group was significantly higher than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion This study found that GAD antibody positive rate in patients with autoimmune thyroiditis was significantly higher. Our findings supported the concept of autoimmune thyroid disease patients who may develop into type 1 diabetes in future life.
