Interventions

  • Blood Collection — OTHER
    Blood will be collected via venipuncture and analyzed. Blood samples will be analyzed for HLA haplotype (a genetic sequence related to type 1 diabetes susceptibility), plasma-induced signature, diabetes autoantibodies, complete blood count with differential, and serum and plasma for storage. For family members with diabetes, blood will also be tested for A1c.

Study Details

The purpose of this study is to gain more information about the step-by-step process that causes someone to develop type 1 diabetes. Scientists think that a person's own immune system, directed by genetic and environmental factors play a major role in its development. Participation involves a blood draw, a brief medical history questionnaire and measurements of height and weight. Some participants will be asked to return for annual follow-up visits for 10 years.
