Journal Title: Przegląd Pediatryczny - Year 2006, Vol 36, Issue 3
Abstract
The aim of the study was to establish the incidence of type 1 diabetes in children in Lodź region in 1992-2004 and the relationship between the incidence ratę and body mass index (BMI). Materiał and methods: The patients with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes from 01.01.1992 to 31.12.2004 from Lodź region were included in the study. Two independent sources of information were used. In 101 patients with the onset of type 1 diabetes between 1992-1994 and 127 children with the onset of type 1 diabetes between 2002-2004 the height and weight were measured and standardized body mass index was calculated (BMI-SDS). Results: A total number of 718 children (376 boys and 342 girls) were registered during the study. The incidence ratę in 1992-2004 was estimated as 11.55/105/year (95% CI: 10.74-12.36) and increased from 9.29/105/year (95% CI: 7.90-10.68) in 1992-1994 to 15.68/105/year (95% CI: 13.53-17.83) in 2002-2004 (p
