简要总结
This study aims to evaluate the improvement of autoimmune status in patients with Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) through supplementation with 5-Methyltetrahydrofolate, and to explore the safety and efficacy of this treatment. The research seeks to provide new methods for the treatment of T1D and offer innovative ideas for enhancing the quality of life of T1D patients.
