The study highlights the utility of using genetic and phenotypic data from large populations to enable better diagnosis and tailored treatment. 

Using genotyping data, the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia-led team found high heritability across pediatric-onset autoimmune diseases.

Researchers will study how prior hypoglycemic episodes can result in the "metabolic memory" of persistent vascular complications.

True Health seeks to acquire substantially all the assets of Health Diagnostics Laboratory, which filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in June.

Through a meta-analysis of 10 pediatric-onset autoimmune diseases, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia researchers found 22 loci shared among the conditions.

Under the partnership the two companies will develop assays for insulin, proinsulin, and c-peptide on clinical sample cohorts at both Nuclea and IRCM's facilities.

The funding will be used to support four to five programs characterizing and validating genetic variations involved with the disease.

Researchers detected a truncating mutation in the carboxypeptidase E gene in members of a Sudanese family affected by extreme obesity, glucose metabolism problems, and other symptoms.
