Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the association between psychiatric disorders and diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) in patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) treated at a tertiary care hospital.
Methods: A propensity score-matched case-control study was conducted, comprising a total sample of 194 participants (97 DKA cases and 97 controls without DKA). Comprehensive data were collected on clinical, anthropometric, and socioeconomic characteristics, and psychiatric disorders were classified according to international standards.
Objective: The objective of this study was to develop a predictive model capable of determining the need for intensive care unit (ICU) admission of patients with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) during their assessment in the Emergency Department.
Methods: This is an observational study of consecutive cases including all adult patients diagnosed with DKA at a tertiary hospital between 2010 and 2024. Variables from medical history, physical examination, and laboratory tests at admission were collected and studied for their association with ICU admission.
