Analysis of data from a national childhood-onset diabetes register showed that a significant and clinically meaningful decrease of HbA1c level in pediatric patients with type 1 diabetes was associated with treatment modality during a 12-year period, according to research published in Diabetes Technology & Therapeutics.

?The metabolic control of the entire nationwide pediatric type 1 diabetes population significantly improved during the 12-year observational period with a low rate of severe acute complications events. The improvement was associated with the treatment modality. Additional efforts and solutions are necessary to further improve metabolic control and the quality of life of young people with type 1 diabetes,? Klemen Dovc, MD, of the department of pediatric endocrinology, diabetes and metabolism at the University Medical Center-University Children?s Hospital in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and colleagues wrote.
