RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVES: The prevalence of type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) is increasing in most developed and developing countries. This study described the clinical characteristics and compliance with care among Nigerian children and adolescents with T1DM. METHODS: This was a cross-sectional descriptive multi-center study of children seen at the paediatric endocrinology clinic of seven selected tertiary health facilities in Nigeria. Information was collected on socio-demographics, clinical characteristics and compliance of the children with dietary recommendations and insulin therapy. Compliance with dietary recommendations and insulin therapy was graded as either good or poor based on defined criteria. RESULTS: The mean age of children was 13.1 ± 4.7 years. The mean age of children at the diagnosis of T1DM was 9.9 ± 4.2 years. Sixty-nine (60%) children were female while about half (47.8%) of the children were from the lower socioeconomic class. Compliance with insulin administration was good in 39.1% of the children and was significantly associated with the father's (p=0.001) and mother's educational status (p=0.024) while compliance with dietary recommendations was good in 20.0% of the children and was significantly associated with mother's educational status (p=0.034) and family socioeconomic class (p=0.010). Only the mother's level of education was independently and significantly associated with compliance to recommendations on insulin therapy (OR 4.2, 95% CI=1.5-11.6, p=0.007). CONCLUSIONS: The compliance of children with dietary recommendations and insulin therapy was poor. Efforts should be strengthened at all healthcare facilities to educate parents on the need for compliance with management guidelines.

RÉSUMÉ

Genital prolapse in the newborn is a rare clinical condition often times seen in association with congenital myelo-meningocele, or this could occur following shigellosis infection. We therefore report two neonates with rectal prolapse following diarrhea and utero-vaginal prolapse associated with congenital spinal bifida.
