T1D is a chronic autoimmune condition where the immune system attacks its own insulin-producing beta cells, leading to high blood glucose levels, as well as dangerous complications such as diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA). Detecting T1D early and before symptoms develop can help avoid serious complications, and initiate timely treatment with therapies that can delay disease progression.
