Regional deprivation and diabetic ketoacidosis at type 1 diabetes diagnosis in children and adolescents: International comparison among 6 countries
Deprivation was significantly associated with the risk of DKA at the diagnosis of type 1 diabetes, and DKA was more common during the pandemic years 2020-2022 than in 2019. Younger children appear to be more vulnerable to deprivation than older patients. Understanding and reducing local and demographic-specific disparities are essential for effective intervention.
