**4. Latent autoimmune diabetes in adults and maturity-onset diabetes of the young**

Besides T1D and T2D, some forms of the disease do not fit neatly into those groups, namely latent autoimmune diabetes in adults (LADA) and maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY). LADA shares some type 1 and type 2 symptoms and treatments, is diagnosed during adulthood, and sets in gradually, like T2D [9]. On the other hand, MODY is caused by genetic changes that affect how well the body makes insulin [10].
