Islet autoantibody screening of infants and young children in the Northern Hemisphere, together with semi-annual metabolic monitoring, is associated with a lower risk of ketoacidosis (DKA) and improved glucose control after diagnosis of clinical (stage 3) type 1 diabetes (T1D). We aimed to determine if similar benefits applied to older Australians and New Zealanders monitored less rigorously.
Previous studies have reported an association between low birthweight and elevated blood pressure (BP) in adulthood, but few have examined the relationship between foetal growth and adult BP.
Understanding the geospatial distribution of influenza infection and the risk factors associated with infection clustering can inform targeted preventive interventions. We conducted a geospatial analysis to investigate the spatial patterns and identify drivers of medically attended influenza infection across all age groups in Western Australia.
A lifelong auto-immune condition that can affect anyone, but is most commonly diagnosed in childhood.
Recent diabetes technology is helping 12-year-old Drina keep on top of her condition and be independent, while significantly easing the disease burden on her family.
We assessed the impact of an acute bout of hyperglycaemia on nitric oxide (NO)-mediated microvascular function in the skin of adolescents with type 1...
Secondary care could be the optimal sector for managing child and adolescent obesity, given low primary care uptake and limited tertiary services.
The objective was to examine the incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes in Western Australia from 1985-2010.
A sprint as short as 10 sec can increase plasma glucose levels in nondiabetic and T1DM individuals, with this rise resulting from a transient decline in...
This study examines whether the short-term use of a continuous glucose monitor can reduce the fear of hypoglycaemia in individuals with type 1 diabetes...
