Background: Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) is a growing global health concern, with a notable rise in incidence in Saudi Arabia. Despite the potential benefits of early detection through screening programs, such initiatives are currently lacking in Saudi Arabia and other Arab countries.
Objective: To evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and cost-effectiveness of a T1D screening program targeting high-risk individuals, specifically children with a first-degree relative diagnosed with T1D.
Background: Despite the known challenges of parental adjustment to new-onset type 1 diabetes (T1D) in young children, little is known about parental sleep soon after diagnosis.
Methods: Parents (n = 157) of young children (4.5 ± 1.
Despite significant pharmacological and technological advances in the treatment of type 1 diabetes, the majority of youth in the United States do not meet the American Diabetes Association's recommended A1C goal. Understanding and managing glycemic variability is important in children and adolescents. Because A1C provides an incomplete picture of day-to-day glycemic fluctuations, continuous glucose monitoring (CGM)-derived metrics are a promising addition to address glycemic management challenges in youth with diabetes.

Pediatric residents need a strong foundation in recognizing and managing pediatric diabetes, imposing a demand for a structured, comprehensive pediatric-specific diabetes curriculum.
Methods: This three-module case-based curriculum focused on diabetes fundamentals relevant to pediatricians in the outpatient and inpatient settings.
Objective: This study aimed to describe parents' perceptions of the factors that facilitate or are barriers to their involvement in children's type 1 diabetes (T1D) management among African American and Latino parents.
Methods: African American and Latino parents (N = 28) of 5- to 9-year-old children with T1D completed audio-recorded, semi-structured interviews that were transcribed and analyzed using thematic analysis. Themes were identified that aligned with the theoretically-derived Capability-Opportunity-Motivation-Behavior (COM-B) framework.
Context: Endocrine disorders are common in individuals with mitochondrial disease. To develop evidence-based screening practices in this high-risk population, updated age-stratified estimates of the prevalence of endocrine conditions are needed.
Objective: To measure the point prevalence of selected endocrine disorders in individuals with mitochondrial disease.
