- Abstract
The article focuses on the positive conversion of Glutamic Acid Decarboxylase Autoantibodies (GADA) after the onset of diabetes in patients with presumed type 2 diabetes. It discusses a study investigating the longitudinal change of GADA in Japanese patients with presumed type 2 diabetes. It concludes that the positive conversion of GADA was not rare in Japanese patients who were previously diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
