Objective: To investigate natural course, treatment, and outcomes in familial versus sporadic type 1 diabetes.

Research Design And Methods: In a population-based study, we compared patients with onset of type 1 diabetes before the age of 20 years who had a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes (familial diabetes) with patients with type 1 diabetes who had no first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes (sporadic diabetes) at diagnosis and over the first 10 treatment years, using multivariable regression and proportional hazards models. Patients were identified from the Diabetes Prospective Follow-up Registry (DPV) between 1995 and 2018.

Intermittent scanning continuous glucose monitoring (iscCGM) is increasingly used for glycemic monitoring in diabetes care. In this cross-sectional real-world analysis, iscCGM data were compared to traditional parameters of glycemic control in young people with type 1 diabetes. Using the DPV registry, most recent data from children and adolescents aged <18 years with uploaded iscCGM sensor profiles with at least 14 days of data and a > 50% completeness were evaluated using recommended parameters of sensor metrics.
