What they personally lead.
Training and recognition
Past Chairman of the Chinese Diabetes Society Type 1 Diabetes Group; Jiangsu Province Hospital established China's first LADA registry, with 2,000+ enrolled patients; published research on GAD antibody-positive diabetes and CTLA-4 immunotherapy in Diabetes Care; the center is a national reference site for islet autoantibody testing
What to expect
For adult-onset patients with atypical "type 2" diabetes, particularly lean patients with poor response to oral agents, evaluation here for LADA is a reasonable second opinion. Bring HbA1c trends, C-peptide values, and any prior antibody panels.
