Progress on the diagnosis and treatment of exogenous insulin antibody syndrome in type 2 diabetes mellitus / 中国医师杂志

ABSTRACT

In the past, it was thought that insulin autoantibodies (IAA) produced by exogenous insulin and its analogues rarely had clinical significance. However, in recent years, with the increase in the incidence of diabetes and the use of insulin, more and more exogenous IAA produced by insulin causes serious clinical harm, and clear detection methods and treatment methods are limited. A large proportion of such patients are therefore missed, which seriously affects the blood glucose control and quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes who receive insulin therapy. This article reviews the current diagnosis and treatment progress of exogenous insulin antibody syndrome in patients with type 2 diabetes.
