LabCorp and Endocrine Sciences, a member of LabCorp's Specialty Testing Group, provide clinicians with a comprehensive portfolio for diagnosing, differentiating, and monitoring diabetic patients.
Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) Type 2 Diabetes (T2D)Maturity-Onset Diabetes of
the Young (MODY)
Screening
Plasma blood glucose should be used instead of HbA1c to diagnose T1D in individuals with symptoms of hyperglycemia.
To test for T2D and prediabetes, the following tests are equally appropriate:• HbA1c• Fasting plasma glucose• 2-hour glucose tolerance test (GTT)
ADA Guidelines recommend screening for MODY1 in patients with atypical diabetes features.
Diagnosis
Type 1 diabetes is defined by the presence of one or more specific autoimmune markers.
The same testing can be used to screen and diagnose diabetes, as well as detect prediabetes in asymptomatic adults. Screening results should be confirmed by one of two methods:• Repeat the same glucose measure on a second sample Or,• utilize two different glucose measures on the same sample
The most common forms of MODY can be diagnosed with genetic testing.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) estimates that more than 30 million Americans suffer from diabetes.4
2019 American Diabetes Association (ADA) Guidelines1
Diagnosing Diabetes MellitusLabCorp offers the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommended tests for screening and diagnosis of type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus.1 Our complete test menu also includes testing and tools to confirm other forms of diabetes.
• Plasma blood glucose
• Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c)
• Oral glucose tolerance tests based on ADA and WHO1,2 recommendations
• Two hour oral glucose tolerance tests for gestational diabetes based on ADA and WHO recommendations1,2
• Three hour oral glucose tolerance tests for gestational diabetes based on ACOG3 recommendations
• Stimulation testing requisitions for ease of ordering mixed meal tests
For Every 1,000 American Adults (20+ YEARS)2
1-5 Have Type 1 Diabetes
100 Have Type 2 Diabetes
300 Have Prediabetes

LabCorp offers a Diabetes Autoimmune Profile with 4 markers that can assist in differentiating T1D from other forms of diabetes. A diabetes autoantibodies assessment is helpful in identifying and managing patients at risk for development of type 1 diabetes.
• Includes testing for:
• GAD-65 antibodies• IA-2/ICA 512 antibodies• Insulin antibodies• ZnT8 antibodies
• Improved detection rate shown by combining these four markers, assisting with identifying and treating patients earlier in the disease onset
• Highly specific to T1D, with a study finding a 98% autoimmunity detection rate for these combined antibodies in new-onset type 1 diabetics. Less than 3% of type 2 diabetics were found to be positive for ZnT8 antibodies11
• A positive result for more than one antibody is associated with a higher likelihood of T1D
• Among new-onset diabetic patients11:
• 98% tested positive for one antibody and 82% tested positive for two or more antibodies11
• 100% of patients with two or more positive antibodies were found to have T1D, as well as 92% to 98% of patients with one positive antibody11
In addition to the Diabetes Autoimmune Profile, LabCorp has several other testing options available.
• Individual antibody test options:
• HLA DQA1 and DQB1 Intermediate Resolution
• T1D has strong HLA associations, 1 and LabCorp offers testing to identify patients with specific HLA genotypes

Differentiating DiabetesDetermining which type of diabetes a patient has is critical to provide the proper care and treatment. Distinguishing between T1D and T2D is becoming increasingly challenging.6 Recent studies estimate that up to 40% of type 1 diabetics present after 30 years of age.7-8 A differentiation methodology might include the following:

Is it MODY? Up to 95% of MODY cases in the US may be misdiagnosed as T1D or T2D.12,13 Accurate diagnosis enables appropriate treatment.1
The ADA suggests screening be considered for MODY in patients who have atypical diabetes that is not characteristic of T1D or T2D. This includes patients who are or were diagnosed with diabetes in youth or early adulthood, but1:
• Test negative for diabetes-associated autoantibodies
• Are not obese and/or do not have a sedentary lifestyle
• Have stable, mild fasting hyperglycemia at diagnosis
• Have stable HbA1c between 5.6% and 7.6% at diagnosis
Other Forms of DiabetesAs part of a complete portfolio of diabetes services, LabCorp also offers testing to help you care for your patients, including:
• Gestational Diabetes
• Secondary diabetes as a result of:
• Cystic fibrosis• Hemochromatosis• Chronic pancreatitis• Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)• Cushing's syndrome• Pancreatic cancer• Glucagonoma• Pancreatectomy
Monitoring Diabetic PatientsOnce diabetes has been diagnosed, appropriate lab testing is important to monitor treatment and complications of the disease. LabCorp offers a thorough menu of tests that may be beneficial when monitoring disease control and progression.
Current guidelines recommend measuring HbA1c at least two times per year in patients who are meeting treatment goals, or quarterly if not meeting treatment goals or treatment has changed. Some conditions affect red blood cell turnover and can cause discrepancies between the A1c result and the true average glucose level. Patients who have or have had anemia, recent blood transfusion, end-stage kidney disease, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, or are pregnant may have discordant HbA1c results. In these cases and for patients taking drugs that stimulate erythropoiesis or who have hemoglobin variants, clinicians may also want to consider other testing to assess glycemic control.1
Beyond HbA1c• Fructosamine—to assess short-term glycemic control
• Glycomark®—to identify postprandial spikes
• Β-hydroxybuterate—ADA recommended testing to monitor blood ketones6
• Ultrasensitive C-Peptide—for detection of very low levels of C-Peptide
• Free and Total Insulin—may be useful for diabetic patients who are treated with insulin analogs. Testing can detect the following exogenous insulin formulations:
MODY makes up about 1% of diabetes cases, affecting approximately 300,000 patients in the US.12
Cross-reactivity of Insulin DrugsInsulin Drug % Cross-reactivity
Human insulin 100%
Insulin aspart 85%
Insulin glargine 92%
Cross-reactivity of Insulin DrugsInsulin Drug % Cross-reactivity
Insulin lispro 79%
Insulin glulisine 14%
Insulin detemir 24%
• Every patient's antibodies are different, and the specificity and avidity of the antibodies may affect the test.

3 – 16% of T1D patients develop celiac disease. The majority of these patients do not present with classic symptoms of celiac disease.14
Autoimimune thyroid disorders are the most prevalent immunologic disease in T1D. Screening is recommended every 1-2 years, or sooner if symptomatic.1,15
3- 16%
Evaluating for ComplicationsBeyond diagnosis and monitoring, LabCorp recognizes the importance of early detection of comorbidities associated with diabetes.
Type 2 diabetic patients are 2-4 times more likely to suffer a cardiovascular event.5 Additionally, diabetes and heart failure often occur together. Poor glycemic control further increases heart failure risk. For every 1% increase in HbA1c, cardiovascular mortality risk increases 11%.16
LabCorp offers a wide array of test options to help identify and manage this increased risk and other diabetes-associated complications.
• Lipid panel options that include insulin resistance (IR) markers and an IR score, lipoprotein particle number, and apolipoprotein
• NT-pro BNP test options to help confirm a heart failure diagnosis
• NASH FibroSure®: ADA-recommended testing for patients with elevated liver enzymes to evaluate for nonalcoholic fatty steato-hepatitis1
• Renal function testing to identify kidney disease
Special Considerations for T1DPatients with T1D are also at risk for other autoimmune diseases such as: thyroid disease, primary adrenal insufficiency, celiac disease, autoimmune gastritis, autoimmune hepatitis, dermatomyositis, and myasthenia gravis. As such, the ADA guidelines recommend considering for all newly diagnosed T1D patients screening for autoimmune thyroid disease and celiac disease.1
• Thyroid Antibodies Panel, including thyroid peroxidase (TPO) antibody and thyroglobulin antibody
• Celiac Antibodies Profile, including Deamidated gliadin antibodies; endomysial antibodies; tissue transglutaminase (tTG) antibodies; total IgA
