Abstract
Methods We performed a retrospective review of all patients <15 years of age diagnosed with T1DM from our unselected complete regional cohort for the years 1999 to 2013. Children were included if they had type 1 diabetes as defined by clinical presentation and/or DKA and/or presence of pre-type 1 diabetes autoantibodies. DKA was classified into Mild (pH <7.3 bicarbonate <15), Mod (pH <7.2 bicarbonate <10), and severe (pH <7.1 bicarbonate <5), according to the ISPAD guidelines.
