TGA positivity by ECL and RBA and its relationship with islet autoantibodies (IAbs) on 23,319 children screened in general population. Only small proportions of TGA (32/606, 5.3%) and IAbs (32/702, 4.6%) were overlapped between. The overlap of TGA with multiple IAbs was significantly higher than that with single IAb (10.5% (10/95) vs. 3.6% (22/607), ).
