RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Given limited data regarding the involvement of disadvantaged groups in paediatric diabetes clinical trials, this study aimed to evaluate the socioeconomic representativeness of participants recruited into a multinational clinical trial in relation to regional and national type 1 diabetes reference populations. METHODS: Retrospective, cross-sectional evaluation of a subset of adolescent type 1 diabetes cardiorenal intervention trial (AdDIT) participants from Australia (n = 144), Canada (n = 312) and the UK (n = 173). Validated national measures of deprivation were used: the Index of Relative Socioeconomic Disadvantage (IRSD) 2016 (Australia), the Material Resources (MR) dimension of the Canadian Marginalisation index 2016 (Canada) and the Index of Multiple Deprivation (IMD) 2015 (UK). Representativeness was assessed by comparing the AdDIT cohort's distribution of deprivation quintiles with that of the local paediatric type 1 diabetes population (regional), and the broader type 1 diabetes population for which the trial's intervention was targeted (national). RESULTS: Recruited study cohorts from each country had higher proportions of participants with higher SES, and significant underrepresentation of lower SES, in relation to their national references. The socioeconomic make-up in Australia mirrored that of the regional population (p = 0.99). For Canada, the 2nd least deprived (p = 0.001) and the most deprived quintiles (p < 0.001) were over- and under-represented relative to the regional reference, while the UK featured higher regional and national SES bias with over-representation and under-representation from the least-deprived and most-deprived quintiles (p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: Significant national differences in trial participation of low SES participants were observed, highlighting limitations in access to clinical research and the importance of reporting sociodemographic representation in diabetes clinical trials.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: We hypothesised that adolescents with type 1 diabetes with a urinary albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR) in the upper tertile of the normal range (high ACR) are at greater risk of three-step diabetic retinopathy progression (3DR) independent of glycaemic control. METHODS: This was a prospective observational study in 710 normoalbuminuric adolescents with type 1 diabetes from the non-intervention cohorts of the Adolescent Cardio-Renal Intervention Trial (AdDIT). Participants were classified as 'high ACR' or 'low ACR' (lowest and middle ACR tertiles) using baseline standardised log10 ACR. The primary outcome, 3DR, was determined from centrally graded, standardised two-field retinal photographs. 3DR risk was determined using multivariable Cox regression for the effect of high ACR, with HbA1c, BP, LDL-cholesterol and BMI as covariates; diabetes duration was the time-dependent variable. RESULTS: At baseline mean ± SD age was 14.3 ± 1.6 years and mean ± SD diabetes duration was 7.2 ± 3.3 years. After a median of 3.2 years, 83/710 (12%) had developed 3DR. In multivariable analysis, high ACR (HR 2.1 [1.3, 3.3], p=0.001), higher mean IFCC HbA1c (HR 1.03 [1.01, 1.04], p=0.001) and higher baseline diastolic BP SD score (HR 1.43 [1.08, 1.89], p=0.01) were independently associated with 3DR risk. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: High ACR is associated with greater risk of 3DR in adolescents, providing a target for future intervention studies. TRIAL REGISTRATION: isrctn.org ISRCTN91419926.

OBJECTIVE: To describe bone mineral density (BMD), bone structure, and fracture prevalence in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and explore their associations with glycemic control and microvascular complications. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Cross sectional study of 64 adolescents (38 males) with T1D duration >10 years who underwent dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT), fracture survey, plantar fascia thickness, and microvascular complications assessment. RESULTS: Mean age was 16.6 ± 2.1 years, diabetes duration 12.8 ± 2.2 years and HbA1c 8.9 ± 1.7% (74 mmol/mol). Fracture prevalence was 50%. DXA areal BMD (Z-score) was reduced for femoral neck (-0.5 ± 1.3, p = 0.008) and arm (-0.4 ± 1.0, p < 0.001), while total areal BMD and lumbar spine BMD were normal. In pQCT (Z-score), trabecular volumetric BMD (vBMD) was reduced for tibia (-0.4 ± 0.8, p < 0.001) and radius (-0.8 ± 1.4, p < 0.001) whereas cortical vBMD was increased at both sites (tibia: 0.5 ± 0.6, p < 0.001, radius: 0.7 ± 1.5, p < 0.001). Muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) was reduced for upper (-0.6 ± 1.2, p < 0.001) and lower (-0.4 ± 0.7, p < 0.001) limbs. DXA total areal BMD was positively correlated with BMI (p < 0.01) and age at T1D diagnosis (p = 0.04). Lower radial bone CSA, total and lumbar spine BMD were associated with autonomic nerve dysfunction. HbA1c, diabetes duration, fracture history and other microvascular complications were not significantly associated with bone parameters. CONCLUSIONS: Adolescents with childhood-onset T1D have site-specific bone deficits in upper and lower limbs but normal total and lumbar spine BMD. T1D appears to have differential effects on trabecular and cortical bone compartments. Future longitudinal analysis is warranted to examine whether these changes translate in to increased fracture risk.

OBJECTIVE: Cardiovascular autonomic neuropathy (CAN) is an overlooked but common and serious diabetes complication. We examined CAN in youth with diabetes and associations with cardiovascular risk factors. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: This was a prospective cohort of youth aged <20 years with type 2 or type 1 diabetes (n = 66/1153, median age 15.4/16.5 years, duration 1.7/8.0 years), assessed between 2009 and 2020. CAN was defined as ≥2 abnormal heart rate variability measures across time, geometric, and frequency domains. Obesity was defined as BMI ≥ 95th percentile and severe obesity as ≥120% of 95th percentile. Multivariable generalized estimating equations (GEE) were used to examine putative risk factors for CAN, including diabetes type, obesity, and HbA1c . RESULTS: At most recent assessment, youth with type 2 versus type 1 diabetes had median: HbA1 c 7.1% (54 mmol/mol) versus 8.7% (72 mmol/mol) and BMI SDS (2.0 vs. 0.7); frequency of CAN (47% vs. 27%), peripheral nerve abnormality (47% vs. 25%), hypertension (29% vs. 12%), albuminuria (21% vs. 3%), and severe obesity (35% vs. 2%). In multivariable GEE, CAN was associated with type 2 diabetes: Odds Ratio 2.53, 95% CI 1.46, 4.38, p = 0.001, higher BMI SDS: 1.49, 95% CI 1.29, 1.73, p < 0.0001, and obesity: 2.09, 95% CI 1.57, 2.78, p < 0.0001. CONCLUSIONS: Youth with type 2 diabetes have a higher frequency of CAN, peripheral nerve abnormality, hypertension, albuminuria and severe obesity despite shorter diabetes duration and younger age. Our findings highlight the importance of targeting modifiable risk factors to prevent cardiovascular disease in youth with diabetes.

OBJECTIVE: The following report describes the evaluation of the ISPAD Science School for Physicians (ISSP) and for Healthcare Professionals (ISSHP) in terms of their efficiency and success. METHODS: All past attendees from 2000-2019 ISSP and 2004-2019 ISSHP programs were invited to respond to an online survey to assess perceived outcomes of the programs on career development, scientific enhancement, scientific networking, and social opportunities. RESULTS: One-third of the past ISSP (129/428), and approximately 43% of the past ISSHP attendees (105/245) responded to the surveys. Most of ISSP attendees reported that the programs supported their career (82%) by helping to achieve a research position (59%), being engaged with diabetes care (68%) or research (63%) or starting a research fellowship (59%). Responders indicated that ISSP was effective in increasing interest in diabetes research (87%) and enhancing the number (66%) and quality (83%) of scientific productions, and promotion of international collaborations (86%). After the ISSP, 34% of responders received research grants. From the first round of the ISSHP survey (2004-2013), responders reported have improved knowledge (60%), gained more confidence in research (69%), undertaken a research project (63%), and achieved a higher academic degree (27%). From the second round (2014-2019), participants indicated that the program was valuable/useful in workplace (94%) through understanding (89%) and conducting (68%) research and establishing communication from other participants (64%) or from faculty (42%). After the ISSHP, 17% had received awards. CONCLUSIONS: From the participants' viewpoint, both programs were effective in improving engagement with diabetes research, supporting career opportunities, increasing scientific skills, and enhancing networking and research activities.

OBJECTIVE: To examine the prevalence, time trends, and risk factors of diabetic retinopathy (DR) among youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) from 11 countries (Australia, Austria, Denmark, England, Germany, Italy, Luxemburg, Netherlands, Slovenia, United States, and Wales). SUBJECTS AND METHODS: Data on individuals aged 10-21 years with T1D for >1 year during the period 2000-2020 were analyzed. We used a cross-sectional design using the most recent year of visit to investigate the time trend. For datasets with longitudinal data, we aggregated the variables per participant and observational year, using data of the most recent year to take the longest observation period into account. DR screening was performed through quality assured national screening programs. Multiple logistic regression models adjusted for the year of the eye examination, age, gender, minority status, and duration of T1D were used to evaluate clinical characteristics and the risk of DR. RESULTS: Data from 156,090 individuals (47.1% female, median age 15.7 years, median duration of diabetes 5.2 years) were included. Overall, the unadjusted prevalence of any DR was 5.8%, varying from 0.0% (0/276) to 16.2% between countries. The probability of DR increased with longer disease duration (aORper-1-year-increase = 1.04, 95% CI: 1.03-1.04, p < 0.0001), and decreased over time (aORper-1-year-increase = 0.99, 95% CI: 0.98-1.00, p = 0.0093). Evaluating possible modifiable risk factors in the exploratory analysis, the probability of DR increased with higher HbA1c (aORper-1-mmol/mol-increase-in-HbA1c = 1.03, 95% CI: 1.03-1.03, p < 0.0001) and was higher among individuals with hypertension (aOR = 1.24, 95% CI: 1.11-1.38, p < 0.0001) and smokers (aOR = 1.30, 95% CI: 1.17-1.44, p < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS: The prevalence of DR in this large cohort of youth with T1D varied among countries, increased with diabetes duration, decreased over time, and was associated with higher HbA1c, hypertension, and smoking.

INTRODUCTION: Type 2 diabetes in young adults (nominally, 18-30 years of age) is a more aggressive condition than that seen in older age, with a greater risk of major morbidity and early mortality. This first Australian consensus statement on the management of type 2 diabetes in young adults considers areas where existing type 2 diabetes guidance, directed mainly towards older adults, may not be appropriate or relevant for the young adult population. Where applicable, recommendations are harmonised with current national guidance for type 2 diabetes in children and adolescents (aged < 18 years). The full statement is available at https://www.diabetessociety.com.au, https://www.adea.com.au and https://www.apeg.org.au. MAIN RECOMMENDATIONS: Advice is provided on important aspects of care including screening, diabetes type, psychological care, lifestyle, glycaemic targets, pharmacological agents, cardiovascular disease risk management, comorbidity assessment, contraception and pregnancy planning, and patient-centred education. Special considerations for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Australians are highlighted separately. CHANGES IN MANAGEMENT AS A RESULT OF THIS STATEMENT: Management recommendations for young adults, which differ from those for adults, include: âªscreening for diabetes in young adults with overweight or obesity and additional risk factors, including in utero exposure to type 2 diabetes or gestational diabetes mellitus; âªmore stringent glucose targets (glycated haemoglobin ≤ 6.5% [≤ 48 mmol/mol]); âªin the context of obesity or higher cardio-renal risk, glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 inhibitors are preferred second line agents; âªß-cell decline is more rapid, so frequent review, early treatment intensification and avoidance of therapeutic inertia are indicated; âªa blood pressure target of < 130/80 mmHg, as the adult target of ≤ 140/90 mmHg is too high; âªabsolute cardiovascular disease risk calculators are not likely to be accurate in this age group; early statin use should therefore be considered; and âªa multidisciplinary model of care including an endocrinologist and a certified diabetes educator.

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Epidemiological research on type 1 diabetes (T1D) has traditionally focussed on the paediatric age group, but recent data in adults has confirmed it to be a disease of all ages with a wide clinical spectrum. We review the epidemiology and clinical features of T1D across the lifespan. RECENT FINDINGS: While the peak incidence of T1D is still in early adolescence, T1D is now diagnosed more commonly in adulthood than childhood due to increasing recognition of adult-onset T1D and the length of the adult lifespan. It still follows the known geographic variations in incidence, being highest in Northern Europe and lowest in Asia. The onset of T1D in adulthood is usually less acute than in childhood and confers a lower, although still substantial, risk of complications and early mortality. Interventions to delay T1D onset are emerging and screening for those at risk at birth is increasingly available. Type 1 diabetes can develop at any age and may not present with ketosis or an immediate insulin requirement in adults. Macro- and microvascular complications are the greatest cause of excess morbidity and mortality in this population.

OBJECTIVE: The relationship between retinal vascular calibres (RVCs) and diabetic neuropathy is unclear. We investigated associations between RVCs and sensory nerve abnormality in adolescents with type 1 diabetes. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: In a prospective longitudinal study of 889 adolescents with type 1 diabetes with baseline mean (±SD) age 14.1 ± 1.5 years and HbA1c IFCC 69.4 ± 14.1 mmol/mol (8.6 ± 1.3%), RVCs were assessed from baseline retinal photographs: 'central zone' calibres, summarized as central retinal arteriolar (CRAE) and venular equivalents (CRVE) and 'extended zone' calibres: mean width of arterioles (MWa) and venules (MWv). Sensory nerve abnormality was defined as at least one abnormal sensory quantitative testing from two thermal and two vibration threshold tests measured at foot every 1-2 years. Associations between baseline RVC and sensory nerve function were examined using generalized estimating equations and cumulative risk by Cox regression analyses. RESULTS: During a median study follow-up of 6.2 [IQR 3.7-10.4] years, sensory nerve abnormality was found in 27% of adolescents. Narrower extended zone calibre quartiles but not CRAE or CRVE quartiles were independently associated with sensory nerve abnormality: MWa (Q1 vs. Q2-4: OR 1.35 (95% CI 1.02, 1.61) and MWv (Q1 vs. Q2-4: 1.31 (1.03, 1.7)), after adjusting for HbA1c , duration and blood pressure. Similarly, in Cox regression, the narrowest quartiles were associated with sensory nerve abnormality: MWa hazard ratio (HR) 1.5 (1.3, 1.8) and MWv 1.6 (1.4, 1.9). CONCLUSIONS: Narrower extended zone retinal calibres were associated with sensory nerve abnormality in adolescents with type 1 diabetes and may present useful biomarkers to understand the pathophysiology of neuropathy.

OBJECTIVES: To assess the clinical and demographic characteristics of children and adolescents across Australia and New Zealand (NZ) with type 2 diabetes. METHODS: We performed a descriptive audit of data prospectively reported to the Australasian Diabetes Data Network (ADDN) registry. Data were collected from six tertiary pediatric diabetes centers across Australia (New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, and Victoria) and NZ (Auckland). Children and adolescents diagnosed with type 2 diabetes aged ≤ 18 years with data reported to ADDN between 2012 and 2017 were included. Age, sex, ethnicity, HbA1c, blood pressure, BMI, waist circumference and lipid profile at first visit were assessed. RESULTS: There were 269 cases of type 2 diabetes in youth reported to ADDN between 2012 and 2017. The most common ethnicities were Indigenous Australian in 56/243 (23%) and NZ Maori or Pacifica in 47 (19%). Median age at diagnosis was 13.7 years and 94% of participants were overweight or obese. Indigenous Australian and Maori/Pacifica children were younger at diagnosis compared with nonindigenous children: median 13.3 years (indigenous Australian); 13.1 years (Maori/Pacifica); 14.1 years (nonindigenous), p = 0.005. HbA1c was higher in indigenous Australian (9.4%) and Maori/Pacifica youth (7.8%) compared with nonindigenous (6.7%) p < 0.001. BMI-SDS was higher in Maori/Pacifica youth (2.3) compared with indigenous Australian (2.1) and nonindigenous (2.2) p = 0.011. CONCLUSIONS: Indigenous Australian and Maori/Pacifica youth in ADDN were younger and had worse glycaemic control at diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Our findings underscore the need to consider targeted and earlier screening in these "high-risk" populations.
RESUMO
In adults, there has been a decline in the incidence of diabetic retinopathy (DR) associated with improvements in diabetes management. Data on incident severe DR in adolescents are sparse. In our established diabetes complications assessment service, we recorded nine cases of sight-threatening retinopathy in youth aged 15-17.9 years from 2017 to 2021. Proliferative retinopathy and clinically significant macular oedema were identified. The subjects were diagnosed with type 1 diabetes before the age of 10 years and had a history of poor glycaemic control (HbA1c 86-130 mmol/mol, 10%-15%). Five cases of retinopathy developed rapidly within 2.5 years of a previously normal retinal examination on seven-field stereoscopic retinal photography. Three adolescents required laser photocoagulation therapy. Two adolescents were diagnosed with retinopathy following improvement in diabetes control after being lost to medical follow-up and their retinopathy improved with improved glycaemic control. Thus, we support repeated retinal screening in adolescents with diabetes duration >10 years with suboptimal glycaemic control, even when initial retinal examination is normal, as retinopathy can progress rapidly during adolescence.

BACKGROUND: Among adolescents with type 1 diabetes, rapid increases in albumin excretion during puberty precede the development of microalbuminuria and macroalbuminuria, long-term risk factors for renal and cardiovascular disease. We hypothesized that adolescents with high levels of albumin excretion might benefit from angiotensin-converting-enzyme (ACE) inhibitors and statins, drugs that have not been fully evaluated in adolescents. METHODS: We screened 4407 adolescents with type 1 diabetes between the ages of 10 and 16 years of age and identified 1287 with values in the upper third of the albumin-to-creatinine ratios; 443 were randomly assigned in a placebo-controlled trial of an ACE inhibitor and a statin with the use of a 2-by-2 factorial design minimizing differences in baseline characteristics such as age, sex, and duration of diabetes. The primary outcome for both interventions was the change in albumin excretion, assessed according to the albumin-to-creatinine ratio calculated from three early-morning urine samples obtained every 6 months over 2 to 4 years, and expressed as the area under the curve. Key secondary outcomes included the development of microalbuminuria, progression of retinopathy, changes in the glomerular filtration rate, lipid levels, and measures of cardiovascular risk (carotid intima-media thickness and levels of high-sensitivity C-reactive protein and asymmetric dimethylarginine). RESULTS: The primary outcome was not affected by ACE inhibitor therapy, statin therapy, or the combination of the two. The use of an ACE inhibitor was associated with a lower incidence of microalbuminuria than the use of placebo; in the context of negative findings for the primary outcome and statistical analysis plan, this lower incidence was not considered significant (hazard ratio, 0.57; 95% confidence interval, 0.35 to 0.94). Statin use resulted in significant reductions in total, low-density lipoprotein, and non-high-density lipoprotein cholesterol levels, in triglyceride levels, and in the ratio of apolipoprotein B to apolipoprotein A1, whereas neither drug had significant effects on carotid intima-media thickness, other cardiovascular markers, the glomerular filtration rate, or progression of retinopathy. Overall adherence to the drug regimen was 75%, and serious adverse events were similar across the groups. CONCLUSIONS: The use of an ACE inhibitor and a statin did not change the albumin-to-creatinine ratio over time.

The International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes Clinical Practice Consensus Guideline 2018 for management of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and the hyperglycemic hyperosmolar state provide comprehensive guidance for management of DKA in young people. Intravenous (IV) infusion of insulin remains the treatment of choice for treating DKA; however, the policy of many hospitals around the world requires admission to an intensive care unit (ICU) for IV insulin infusion. During the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic or other settings where intensive care resources are limited, ICU services may need to be prioritized or may not be appropriate due to risk of transmission of infection to young people with type 1 or type 2 diabetes. The aim of this guideline, which should be used in conjunction with the ISPAD 2018 guidelines, is to ensure that young individuals with DKA receive management according to best evidence in the context of limited ICU resources. Specifically, this guideline summarizes evidence for the role of subcutaneous insulin in treatment of uncomplicated mild to moderate DKA in young people and may be implemented if administration of IV insulin is not an option.

OBJECTIVES: To identify biomarkers of renal disease in adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and to compare findings in adults with T1D. METHODS: Twenty-five serum biomarkers were measured, using a Luminex platform, in 553 adolescents (median [interquartile range] age: 13.9 [12.6, 15.2] years), recruited to the Adolescent Type 1 Diabetes Cardio-Renal Intervention Trial. Associations with baseline and final estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), rapid decliner and rapid increaser phenotypes (eGFR slopes <-3 and > 3 mL/min/1.73m2 /year, respectively), and albumin-creatinine ratio (ACR) were assessed. Results were also compared with those obtained in 859 adults (age: 55.5 [46.1, 64.4) years) from the Scottish Diabetes Research Network Type 1 Bioresource. RESULTS: In the adolescent cohort, baseline eGFR was negatively associated with trefoil factor-3, cystatin C, and beta-2 microglobulin (B2M) (B coefficient[95%CI]: -0.19 [-0.27, -0.12], P = 7.0 × 10-7 ; -0.18 [-0.26, -0.11], P = 5.1 × 10-6 ; -0.12 [-0.20, -0.05], P = 1.6 × 10-3 ), in addition to clinical covariates. Final eGFR was negatively associated with osteopontin (-0.21 [-0.28, -0.14], P = 2.3 × 10-8 ) and cystatin C (-0.16 [-0.22, -0.09], P = 1.6 × 10-6 ). Rapid decliner phenotype was associated with osteopontin (OR: 1.83 [1.42, 2.41], P = 7.3 × 10-6 ), whereas rapid increaser phenotype was associated with fibroblast growth factor-23 (FGF-23) (1.59 [1.23, 2.04], P = 2.6 × 10-4 ). ACR was not associated with any of the biomarkers. In the adult cohort similar associations with eGFR were found; however, several additional biomarkers were associated with eGFR and ACR. CONCLUSIONS: In this young population with T1D and high rates of hyperfiltration, osteopontin was the most consistent biomarker associated with prospective changes in eGFR. FGF-23 was associated with eGFR increases, whereas trefoil factor-3, cystatin C, and B2M were associated with baseline eGFR.

BACKGROUND: Inflammation is implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetes and its complications in adults. Little is known about the relative contribution of inflammation in common types of diabetes in youth: type 1 diabetes (T1D), type 2 diabetes (T2D), and cystic fibrosis-related diabetes (CFRD). This study investigates inflammatory markers by diabetes type and complication status, and assesses indicators of inflammation and complications. METHODS: A cross-sectional study of 134 T1D, 32 T2D, 32 CFRD and 48 subjects without diabetes (including 11 with CF and normal glucose tolerance) was undertaken. Inflammation was assessed by sE-selectin by ELISA, hsCRP by turbidimetry, WCC and ESR. Nephropathy was defined by albuminuria, autonomic neuropathy by heart rate variability, and peripheral neuropathy by vibration and thermal threshold testing and retinopathy by seven-field stereoscopic fundus photography. Descriptive statistics, parametric and non-parametric ANOVA and regression analyses were performed, with significance at P < .05. RESULTS: Of 198 diabetic participants; 49% female, mean (SD) age, median diabetes duration and median HbA1c were 16 (2.5) and 6 (3-9) years, and 8.1 (6.9-9.3)%, respectively. All inflammatory markers were lower in T1D than in other diabetes groups (P < .05) but higher than in non-diabetic controls. T2D (n = 32) and CFRD (n = 32) subjects had comparable elevated levels of inflammation. Body mass index (BMI) was a strong independent explanatory variable of inflammation. In multivariate analysis, hsCRP and ESR were associated with complications in addition to HbA1c, BMI, and diastolic BP. CONCLUSIONS: Circulating inflammatory markers are elevated in adolescents with diabetes, being higher and comparable in T2D and CFRD than in T1D. Inflammation is independently associated with diabetes complications, consistent with inflammation driving vascular pathology in diabetes.

BACKGROUND: Children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) are at risk of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at T1D diagnosis and/or subsequently. OBJECTIVE: The objective is to determine the incidence and prevalence of T1D by the presence of DKA and identify the characteristics of subsequent DKA episodes. SUBJECTS: The study population included all children aged <15 years with T1D during a hospital/day-stay admission in New South Wales, Australia, from 1 January 2001 to 31 December 2013. T1D and DKA were identified using International Classification of Diseases Australian Modification codes. METHODS: Data sources included routinely collected longitudinally linked population hospitalization and birth records. Chi-squared analyses, logistic, and multinomial regression were used to determine the association between child characteristics and admissions with and without DKA. RESULTS: The point prevalence of T1D among 0-14-year olds on 31 December 2013 was 144.2 per 100 000. For children aged 0-12 years, the incidence of T1D was 16.3 per 100 000 child-years. One-third had DKA at T1D diagnosis and were more likely to be readmitted with DKA than those without DKA at T1D diagnosis. Children with more than one readmission for DKA were more likely to be female, reside in an inner regional area or an area of socioeconomic disadvantage, and be Australian-born. Among all hospitalizations of children with T1D, those with DKA were more likely to be aged 10-14 years, require intensive care, have longer length of stay, and admitted outside school days. CONCLUSION: Routinely collected administrative health data are a reliable source to monitor incidence and health service use of childhood T1D. Children at risk of repeated DKA, particularly females, adolescents, and those from inner regional or socioeconomically disadvantaged areas, should be targeted during education and follow-up.

OBJECTIVES: Only a fraction of youth meet established targets for glycemic control; many experience deteriorating control over time. We compared trajectories of hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) among youth from three trans-continental type 1 diabetes (T1D) registries and identified clinical variables associated with the odds of following increasing vs stable trajectories. RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS: Analyses included longitudinal data from 15 897 individuals age 8 to 18 with T1D for at least 2 years and HbA1c measurements in at least 5 years during the observation period. Cohorts were selected from Australasian Diabetes Data Network (ADDN; Australia), German/Austrian/Luxembourgian Diabetes-Patienten-Verlaufsdokumentation initiative (DPV; Germany/Austria/Luxembourga), and the T1D Exchange Clinic Network (T1DX; US) clinic registries. Group-based trajectory modeling and multivariable logistic regression identified unique HbA1c trajectories and their predictors. RESULTS: Five heterogeneous trajectories of glycemic control in each registry were identified: low, intermediate, high stable; intermediate and high increasing. The overall HbA1c level for each trajectory group tended to be lowest in the DPV, higher in the ADDN, and highest in the T1DX. The absolute level of HbA1c and the proportion of individuals within each trajectory varied across registries: 17% to 22% of individuals followed an increasing trajectory. Compared with maintaining a stable trajectory, following an increasing trajectory was significantly associated with ethnic minority status, lower height z-score, higher BMI z-score, insulin injection therapy, and the occurrence of severe hypoglycemia; however, these factors were not consistent across the three registries. CONCLUSIONS: We report the first multinational registry-based comparison of glycemic control trajectories among youth with T1D from three continents and identify possible targets for intervention in those at risk of an increasing HbA1c trajectory.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: We examined the hypothesis that elevation in urinary albumin creatinine ratio (ACR) in adolescents with type 1 diabetes is associated with abnormal retinal vascular geometry (RVG) phenotypes. METHODS: A cross-sectional study at baseline of the relationship between ACR within the normoalbuminuric range and RVG in 963 adolescents aged 14.4 ± 1.6 years with type 1 diabetes (median duration 6.5 years) screened for participation in AdDIT. A validated algorithm was used to categorise log10 ACR into tertiles: upper tertile ACR was defined as 'high-risk' for future albuminuria and the lower two tertiles were deemed 'low-risk'. RVG analysis, using a semi-automated computer program, determined retinal vascular calibres (standard and extended zones) and tortuosity. RVG measures were analysed continuously and categorically (in quintiles: Q1-Q5) for associations with log10 ACR and ACR risk groups. RESULTS: Greater log10 ACR was associated with narrower vessel calibres and greater tortuosity. The high-risk group was more likely to have extended zone vessel calibres in the lowest quintile (arteriolar Q1 vs Q2-Q5: OR 1.67 [95% CI 1.17, 2.38] and venular OR 1.39 [0.98, 1.99]) and tortuosity in the highest quintile (Q5 vs Q1-Q4: arteriolar OR 2.05 [1.44, 2.92] and venular OR 2.38 [1.67, 3.40]). The effects of retinal vascular calibres and tortuosity were additive such that the participants with the narrowest and most tortuous vessels were more likely to be in the high-risk group (OR 3.32 [1.84, 5.96]). These effects were independent of duration, blood pressure, BMI and blood glucose control. CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: Higher ACR in adolescents is associated with narrower and more tortuous retinal vessels. Therefore, RVG phenotypes may serve to identify populations at high risk of diabetes complications during adolescence and well before onset of clinical diabetes complications.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular morbidity in adults with diabetes. OBJECTIVE: To examine the predictive role of body mass index (BMI) and adiposity on cardiac autonomic function in childhood onset type 1 diabetes. SUBJECTS: Two hundred and fifty-three participants with type 1 diabetes (aged 8-30 years) were assessed for diabetes complications at a tertiary hospital, and followed over 7 years (total 922 visits). METHODS: Heart rate variability (HRV) measures assessed by 10-minute electrocardiography recording using LabChart Pro were standard deviation of RR intervals, time between consecutive QRS complexes, [SDNN], root mean squared difference of successive RR intervals (RMSSD), triangular index (TI), and low to high frequency ratio [LF:HF]. Multivariable generalized estimating equations were used to model the longitudinal associations between HRV measures and clinical variables (BMI standard deviation scores [SDS], waist:height ratio, total daily insulin dose/kg (TDD) and hemoglobin A1c [HbA1c]). RESULTS: At baseline, mean age was 14.4 ± 2.7 years, diabetes duration 7.1 ± 3.7 years, HbA1c 8.3% ± 1.5% (67 ± 16 mmol/mol), and 33% were overweight/obese (BMI ≥85th percentile). At final visit, mean age was 18.5 ± 2.7 years, duration 11.3 ± 3.9 years, HbA1c 9.0% ± 1.8% (75 ± 20 mmol/mol), and 40% were overweight/obese. Adiposity (higher BMI SDS or waist: height ratio) was a significant predictor of worse HRV (lower SDNN, RMSSD; P < .05), while higher HbA1c and TDD predicted all adverse HRV measures (lower SDNN, RMSSD, TI; P < .05) and abnormal sympathovagal balance (higher LF:HF ratio; P < .05). CONCLUSIONS: Higher BMI and central adiposity are associated with cardiac autonomic dysfunction in childhood onset type 1 diabetes, after adjusting for HbA1c. Interventions targeting overweight/obesity during adolescence may optimize long-term vascular health in type 1 diabetes.

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: Retinal imaging enables non-invasive microvasculature assessment; however, only central retinal vessels have been studied in type 1 diabetes. Peripheral smaller vessels have a major haemodynamic role and may differ from central vessels in their response to the diabetic milieu. We hypothesise that diabetes has a greater impact on peripheral retinal vessels vs central vessels. METHODS: Retinal photographs from adolescents (n = 736; age 12-20 years) with type 1 diabetes were graded (Singapore I Vessel Assessment) with vessel calibres measured in the 'central zone' as central retinal arteriolar and venular equivalents (CRAE and CRVE, respectively) and the 'extended zone' as mean width of arterioles and venules (MWa and MWv, respectively). Multivariable linear regression was used to explore associations between vessel calibres and HbA1c, diabetes duration, sex and BP. RESULTS: Mean ± SD age was 14.1 ± 1.5 years, HbA1c was 8.5 ± 1.3% (69.4 ± 14.1 mmol/mol) and median diabetes duration was 4.9 years (interquartile range 3.1-7.6 years). Wider MWa was associated with HbA1c (ß 0.01 [95% CI 0.004, 0.03]), longer diabetes duration (0.07 [0.02, 0.13]) and higher systolic BP (0.04 [0.02, 0.05]). MWv was associated with HbA1c (0.02 [0.009, 0.03]) and higher systolic BP (0.04 [0.03, 0.06]). CRAE was associated with longer diabetes duration (0.93 [0.58, 1.28]) and higher systolic BP (-0.28 [-0.37, -0.19]). CRVE was associated with longer diabetes duration (0.91 [0.42, 1.41]) and higher systolic BP (-0.20 [-0.33, -0.07]). Girls had wider vessels (for all four calibre measurements). CONCLUSIONS/INTERPRETATION: In adolescents with type 1 diabetes, higher HbA1c is associated with adverse changes to peripheral smaller retinal vessels but not central vessels. The predictive value of retinal vascular imaging should be evaluated using longitudinal data.
