Clinical and Genetic Characteristics of Autoimmune Polyglandular Syndrome Type 3 Variant in the Japanese Population

摘要

Objective:Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is commonly associated with autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD), and the occurrence of both T1D and AITD in a patient is defined as autoimmune polyglandular syndrome type 3 variant (APS3v). We aimed to clarify the differences in the clinical and genetic characteristics of APS3v patients and T1D patients without AITD [T1D/AITD(?)] in the Japanese population.
