Natural history and clinical characteristics of 50 patients with Wolfram syndrome
ConclusionsThe early presence of a non-autoimmune insulin dependent DM, should alert us of an “infrequent” diabetes syndrome. Wolfram’s presumptive diagnosis could be established if juvenile-onset DM occurs concomitantly with OA, and this visual impairment is not attributable to diabetic retinopathy. Despite the long period of evolution of DM and altered values of HbA1c, the prevalence of microvascular complications in the sample are low.
