Aim: The seasonal variation of incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) theory supports the hypothesis that environmental factors play a role in the onset of the disease. The aim of this study is to assess seasonality of month of diagnosis in children with T1D in Poland.

Material And Methods: the study group consisted of 2174 children from eastern and central Poland diagnosed with T1D between 2010 and 2014.

Epidemiology of type 1 diabetes in Polish children: A multicentre cohort study.

Background: The incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes (T1D) varies greatly between populations, and the estimates and/or predictions of the rates would aid in adequate planning of health care resources. The study's aim was to assess the incidence of T1D in the paediatric population of eastern and central Poland.

Methods: In this cohort study covering the period from January 2010 to December 2014, data were collected for children and adolescents below 18 years of age with newly diagnosed T1D living in eastern and central Poland.

Changes in lymphocyte subsets in children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus.

Unlabelled: The aim of this study was to assess changes in selected peripheral blood lymphocyte subsets in children and adolescents with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus (DM) and determine the correlation between these changes and other immunological markers. The study involved a group of 39 patients aged 2-14 years and a control group. The number of T- and B-lymphocytes and the number of CD4, CD8, CD4/HLA-DR, CD8/HLA-DR, CD5/CD20 subsets were measured by flow-cytometry using monoclonal antibodies.
