Abstract Detection of islet autoantibodies [anti-glutamic acid decarboxylase antibody
(GADA), anti-islet cell antibody (ICA), anti-insulin antibody (IAA)] in patients
with diabetes usually indicates an autoimmune origin, suggesting type 1 diabetes
(T1DM). The aim of our study was to determine whether islet autoantibodies are
present in patients with diabetic gastroparesis and whether they associate with
delayed gastric emptying, severity of GI symptoms, or diagnosed type of
diabetes.
