Our systematic review and meta-analysis shows that in children with early-stage #T1D the OGTT, related tests (M120 and Index60) and HbA1c predict progression to clinical #T1D. More evidence is needed for other tests, such as CGM and C-peptide. @BesserBesser@T1Early@diabmedwiley

More people living with type 1 diabetes will get access to hybrid closed-loop tech (HCL) this year thanks to a funding deal announced today by @NHSEngland.
We’re proud to have been there from research to rollout when it comes to HCL – read more here 👇

Screening for early type 1 diabetes has officially begun in Portugal! The team is using a fresh approach to reach children directly, making screening accessible and interactive. @Decathlon
A general population screening strategy for #T1D? Aligning with a vaccination visit looks feasible and acceptable in this proof of concept study @T1Early@NIHRresearch@OxfordBRC@besser
