Scientists have decoded an extremely rare case in which a Chinese woman with diabetes was hospitalised periodically for severe vomiting episodes of over 30 times on some days.
The 27-year-old woman, according to a study published last month in the journal Frontiers in Endocrinology, suffers from type 1 diabetes (T1D), an autoimmune disorder in which a person’s immune system attacks the healthy cells in their own pancreas that produce the hormone insulin.
