Abstract:
The objective of this study is to establish a connection between COVID-19 and Type 1 Diabetes by conducting a comprehensive case study on a patient who, subsequent to contracting the COVID-19 virus, developed Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA). An interview was carried out, contributing to the confirmation of the association between COVID-19 and Type 1 Diabetes (T1D). The patient developed Latent Autoimmune Diabetes in Adults (LADA) following a bout of the coronavirus. Surprisingly, the patient's initial diagnosis was NPDR (non-proliferative diabetic retinopathy), which later progressed to PDR (proliferative diabetic retinopathy). While there is no conclusive evidence supporting the idea that COVID-19 directly triggers PDR, this unforeseen revelation hints at a potential link between the two. However, additional research is necessary to validate this discovery.
