Introduction
In recent years, our understanding of type 1 diabetes has rapidly evolved—not only in clinical care but also in medical technology and fundamental research. This overview is based entirely on one of the most recent and authoritative scientific articles on the subject: “New advances in type 1 diabetes”, published in 2024 in the British Medical Journal (BMJ). The article was authored by Dr. Savitha Subramanian, Dr. Farah Khan, and Dr. Irl B. Hirsch—experienced researchers and clinicians at the University of Washington Diabetes Institute, with extensive expertise in metabolism, endocrinology, and diabetes care.
This article is designed to provide patients and their families with clear, up-to-date, and practical answers to the most pressing questions that arise after a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes. All information is grounded in evidence-based insights from this landmark BMJ publication.
