LADA versus classic adult-onset type 1 diabetes was independently related to sTNFRII (odds ratio [OR] 1.9 [95% CI 1.01-3.97]; <i>P</i> = 0.047) and hs-CRP levels (OR 0.78 [95% CI 0.62-0.96]; <i>P</i> = 0.019), and a higher number of total leukocytes lowered the risk of LADA compared with type 2 diabetes (OR 0.98 [95% CI 0.97-0.99]; <i>P</i> = 0.036).
