Article Synopsis
  • The study aimed to analyze how often type 1 diabetes (T1D) and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) occurred in kids aged 0-14 in the Trentino-Alto Adige region of Italy from 2014 to 2023.
  • Results showed an overall T1D incidence of 21.5 per 100,000 person-years, peaking at 31.1 during 2021, and DKA occurred in about 36.9% of cases, with younger patients showing higher HbA1c levels.
  • The findings suggest that the incidence of T1D in the region is similar to other northern Italian areas, highlighting the need for educational campaigns to raise

Objective: Transient neonatal diabetes mellitus (TNDM) is caused by activating mutations in ABCC8 and KCNJ11 genes (KATP/TNDM) or by chromosome 6q24 abnormalities (6q24/TNDM). We wanted to assess whether these different genetic aetiologies result in distinct clinical features.

Design: Retrospective analysis of the Italian data set of patients with TNDM.

Adults with Type 1 diabetes mellitus show a high risk of bone fracture, probably as a consequence of a decreased bone mass and microarchitectural bone alterations. The aim of the study was to investigate the potential negative effects of type 1 diabetes on bone geometry, quality, and bone markers in a group of children and adolescents. 96 children, mean age 10.
