Banting 100 years later, AI and retinopathy screening and diagnosis, stage 1 type 1 diabetes and islet autoimmunity, and more!

Remembering a critical breakthrough in diabetes research on a fateful night over 100 years ago, Anand E. Rajesh and Aaron Y. Lee on the incredible potential of artificial intelligence in screening for and diagnosing diabetic retinopathy, Brigitte I. Frohnert on stage 1 type 1 diabetes and multiple islet autoimmunity, and more!

Welcome to episode no. 11 (October 2023) of Diabetes Care "On Air"—a new and different way to bring the research published in Diabetes Care to life. Join co-hosts Alice Cheng, MD, FRCPC, and Michael Rickels, MD, MS, as they discuss the latest and greatest content in the October 2023 issue of Diabetes Care.

0:45: Alice kicks off the episode with a fun October fact about a critical breakthrough in diabetes research that occurred in 1920. This breakthrough came in the form of an idea in a dream of Sir Fredrick Banting in the early morning hours of Halloween that year, and this idea contributed greatly to the discovery and successful purification of insulin.

2:20: Alice interviews Anand E. Rajesh and Aaron Y. Lee, authors of "Artificial Intelligence and Diabetic Retinopathy: AI Framework, Prospective Studies, Head-to-head Validation, and Cost-effectiveness" This study is an editor-selected feature article appearing in the October 2023 issue and is openly accessible at https://doi.org/10.2337/dci23-0032.

22:54: Mike interviews Brigitte I. Frohnert, lead author of "Refining the Definition of Stage 1 Type 1 Diabetes: An Ontology-Driven Analysis of the Heterogeneity of Multiple Islet Autoimmunity." This study is also an editor-selected feature article appearing in the October 2023 issue and is openly accessible at https://doi.org/10.2337/dc22-1960.

43:36: In the "Diabetes Care Rapid Exchange," Alice and Mike wrap up the episode by reviewing several interesting articles in the October 2023 issue of Diabetes Care. Studies highlighted in this segment include:
