... that George Eisenbarth conducted twin studies showing that if one twin had type 1 diabetes, the other was also at risk of the disease? Source: "In particular he studied a group of identical twins in which only one of the twin pair had diabetes. Eisenbarth found that autoantibodies against the β cells of the pancreas could also be detected in the non-diabetic twin—who would, in the long run, go on to develop the disease."

New enough and long enough. QPQ present. Hook fact is interesting, checks out, and is in article. Earwig mostly flags organization and award names and an included quote; no issues. Good to go. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 01:43, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@97198 and Sammi Brie: might i suggest one?
ALT1: ... that George Eisenbarth's "George graph", detailing stages of diabetes, was laughingly described as "the most over-shown graph ever"?
I found it in The Lancet's summary – I can add it the article, if you'd like :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 10:26, 5 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
- @Theleekycauldron: Yes, that checks out. Promoter will have ALT1 as an option if added. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 00:03, 6 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
