Abstract
The prevalence of LADA amongst a subset of Nigerians with CT2DM was 11.9%. There were no distinguishing clinical features to help characterize persons with LADA. The above finding emphasizes the importance of GADA testing for appropriate classification of persons with CT2DM. Early diagnosis of LADA would help direct appropriate therapy to optimize glycaemic control.
