RESEARCH POSTER PRESENTATION DESIGN © 2012 www.PosterPresentations.com The type B insulin resistance syndrome is an autoimmune disease of low prevalence. It is due to the presence of antibodies against the insulin receptor (1) and its relationship with Lupus Erythematosus is low, having an incidence of 2.6% (2). Although in some cases it manifests with hypoglycemia, it more often presents with severe hyperglycemia with high insulin requirements and exaggerated insulin resistance (3). The immunomodulatory treatment may be the best strategy to achieve metabolic control and can even turn the antibodies negative (3). Background 23 year old, thin, female patient, diagnosed with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus since 2010, undergoing therapy with prednisolone 5 mg daily, chloroquine and azathioprine. In August 2013 she presented diabetic ketoacidosis; steroids were suspended and treatment with insulin was begun. During her stay at the hospital she had high insulin requirements (glargine insulin 90 units every 12 hours and aspart insulin 70 preprandial units). Due to poor metabolic control, she needed to change from a basal-bolus scheme to an insulin pump plus additional bolus, persisting poor metabolic control with glucometric measurements of 600mg / dl or greater, requiring progressive increases in doses up to 300 units of insulin per day through the infusion pump plus a basal-bolus insulin scheme of glargine and glulisine, with total doses of up to 600 units per day. (Fig.1) Clinical Case Discussion Some patients with these antibodies evidence an association with an autoimmune disorder, mainly Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) and, to a lesser degree, with other undifferentiated autoimmune disorders, although a low incidence of the presence of insulin antibodies in SLE patients has been reported (2). Often these patients have high insulin requirements associated with signs of insulin resistance as acanthosis nigricans, amenorrhea and hyperandrogenism (4). Treatment of Type B insulin resistance has been largely empirically based on immunotherapies such as corticosteroids, cyclophosphamide, cyclosporine, azathioprine, mycophenolate rituximab and plasmapheresis, associated with high doses of insulin (1). In this particular case, management with prednisolone, azathioprine and mycophenolate for the lupus activity resulted in a progressive insulin requirement decrease, and eventually in withdrawal of all antidiabetic therapy, achieving a complete resolution of hyperglycemia. Conclusions Type B insulin resistance syndrome should be suspected in a patient with autoimmune disease presenting severe hyperglycemia with very high insulin requirements. The study should include anti insulin antibodies and anti insulin receptor; the absence of these antibodies does not rule out disease but allows confirmation with positive reports. In this patient the positivity for anti-insulin antibodies was confirmed at levels only slightly above the normal upper limit, but the complete resolution of severe hyperglycemia in response to immunomodulators allowed us to confirm the diagnosis and to prevent severe complications of prolonged uncontrolled hyperglycemia.

Q U I C K S T A R T

Zoom in and out As you work on your poster zoom in and out to the level that is more comfortable to you. Go to VIEW > ZOOM.

Title, Authors, and Affiliations

Start designing your poster by adding the title, the names of the authors, and the affiliated institutions. You can type or paste text into the provided boxes. The template will automatically adjust the size of your text to fit the title box. You can manually override this feature and change the size of your text.

T I P : The font size of your title should be bigger than your name(s) and institution name(s).

Adding Logos / Seals Most often, logos are added on each side of the title. You can insert a logo by dragging and dropping it from your desktop, copy and paste or by going to INSERT > PICTURES. Logos taken from web sites are likely to be low quality when printed. Zoom it at 100% to see what the logo will look like on the final poster and make any necessary adjustments.

T I P : See if your company’s logo is available on our free poster templates page.

Photographs / Graphics You can add images by dragging and dropping from your desktop, copy and paste, or by going to INSERT > PICTURES. Resize images proportionally by holding down the SHIFT key and dragging one of the corner handles. For a professional-looking poster, do not distort your images by enlarging them disproportionally.

Image Quality Check Zoom in and look at your images at 100% magnification. If they look good they will print well.
