Our track record

A list of the Children's Diabetes Centre's research track record.

Diabetes distress and teens

During National Diabetes Week, we take a look at diabetes distress and what research the Children's Diabetes Centre is doing to improve the mental health and wellbeing of young people with diabetes and their families.

Variation in nutrition education practices in SWEET pediatric diabetes centers-an international comparison

Nutrition education is central to pediatric type 1 diabetes management. Dietary management guidelines for type 1 diabetes are evidence based, but implementation may be challenging and inconsistent. We describe variation in the practice of nutrition education across pediatric diabetes centers globally and explore associations with A1c and BMI.

New clinics for younger children

In order to meet the rising needs of all children with type 1 diabetes and their families in WA, PCH's Diabetes Service will offer additional clinics in 2021.

Realising the potential impact of artificial intelligence for rare diseases – A framework

Rare diseases (RD) are conditions affecting fewer than 1 in 2000 persons, with over 7000 largely genetic RDs affecting 3.5 %-5.9 % of the global population, or approximately 262.9–446.2 million people. The substantial healthcare burden and costs, such as the $1 trillion annual expense in the USA, highlight the urgent need for improved RD management. The International Rare Diseases Research Consortium (IRDiRC) addresses this need through global collaboration, aiming for timely and accurate diagnosis, development of 1000 new therapies, and methodologies to measure impact by 2027.

Research results

Many of the Centre's researchers have been responsible for discovering and contributing to real game-changers, making a difference to children with diabetes.
