ABSTRACT
We studied demographic, metabolic, and clinical characteristics of patients with diabetes and autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) from the German/Austrian DPV registry. A total of 139 patients with diabetes and AIH were analyzed and compared to 437 728 patients with diabetes without AIH. The prevalence of AIH in patients with T1DM (44.8/100 000) seems higher than in the general population, the prevalence of AIH in patients with T2DM (23.6/100 000) does not seem to be increased. Patients with T2DM and AIH had a shorter duration of diabetes (p=0.007) and a higher proportion of females (p<0.001) compared to T2DM without AIH. Patients with diabetes (T1DM or T2DM) and AIH required higher insulin doses (p<0.001 and p=0.03, respectively) and showed increased liver enzymes (aspartate transaminase, alanine transaminase, gamma-glutamyltransferase) compared to diabetes patients without (all p<0.001). We detected a lower percentage of patients treated with oral antidiabetic drugs (p=0.01) and a higher percentage of patients treated by insulin in patients with T2DM and AIH (p<0.001) compared to patients with T2DM alone. We observed a higher incidence of autoimmune thyroid disease (AIT) in patients with diabetes (T1DM or T2DM) and AIH (p<0.001) compared to diabetes patients without AIH. AIH seems more frequent in patients with T1DM. Patients with diabetes and AIH require intensification of antidiabetic therapy and seem to have a higher prevalence of AIT.
