Abstract:
Hypoglycaemia is an unavoidable consequence of treatment of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM). Symptoms are often embarrassing and distressing and can lead to the development of fear of hypoglycaemia (FoH). This fear can have a negative impact on diabetes management and can lead to further medical complications. 210 children and young people (CYP), aged 3-17 years and 190 parents from diabetes paediatric clinics across the West Midlands, UK, completed questionnaires exploring the prevalence of hypoglycaemia, FoH and links to hypoglycaemia awareness, self-care, quality of life and anxiety.

Abstract:
Background: It is still unknown why children develop type 1 diabetes (T1D), although both genetic predisposition and environmental factors seems to be involved. Stress has been suggested as one environmental factor contributing to the development of T1D since the stress hormones may increase the need for insulin or increase insulin resistance. The family is important for the child’s emotional security, development, and regulation of emotions, hence stress among the parent’s may influence the child’s experiences of stress and coping with stressors.

Abstract:
Abstract Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) among children is of a particular importance in Finland, where its incidence is the highest in the world and still increasing. However, the aetiology of T1DM is not fully known. According to current knowledge, both genetic and environmental factors operate together, leading to an attack by the immune system on the insulin-producing beta cells. The purpose of this study was to investigate the geographical variation in the incidence of T1DM among children aged up to 14 years in Finland.

This fracture risk is higher than expected bone mineral density (BMD) measurements, which indicates the likelihood that other skeletal factors, not captured by DXA, may contribute toward increased fracture risk. There is increasing evidence that alteration in trabecular bone microarchitecture and increased bone marrow adiposity (BMA) are causes for excess skeletal fragility, yet these

One factor receiving increasing attention is the role of infections introduced through population mixing.
