Abstract:

Objective To compare of anterior-posterior decade glycemic control with improvement of diabetes management and evaluate influence of socioeconomic factors on glycemic control. Methods This cross-sectional clinical-based survey enrolled 158 T1DM children on December 2011 to May 2012(Group A) in Beijing children's hospital of more than one year management and compared with 123 T1DM children who were recruited in Asia and the West Pacific Region T1DM Study on December 2001 to May 2002(Group B) in Beijing children's hospital. Normally distributed data are reported as mean±SD, skewed data as median±interquartile range. Linear correlation and regression analysis were performed for glycemic control. Results There is no complication in both two groups. The average of HbA1C was 8.3±1.53%, better than ten years before 9.9±1.85 %(P=0.000). The ratio of optimal and suboptimal HbA1C of boys in group A and B were 16.4%, 68.5% vs 2.4%, 58.9%, P=0.000 respectively. The ratio of insulin injection twice daily and the frequency of SMBG in group A and B both girls and boys are statistically significant difference P=0.000 respectively. HbA1C was positive correlation with age, duration, insulin dosage per day and diabetic care costs by family while inverse correlation with frequency of SMBG in liner correlation and regression analysis. It was showed that duration was the most important factor. Socioeconomic survey showed that household income and parents' knowledge and educational levels did not affect glycemic control significantly in statistic. But there is a higher percentage of parents' knowledge and educational levels in optional subgroup than in the other two subgroups. About half of diabetic children whose household income were lower than the average level and their diabetic care costs were over 1/3 household income. Conclusion There were younger and more girls of type 1 dibetic children in Beijing children's hospital. The frequency of SMBG and the ratio of MDI and CSII were increasing significantly ten years after. Duration was the most important factor of glycemic control. There was no complication in children. Glycemic control would be better due to improvement SMBG and increasing the frequency of insulin injection. Socioeconomic survey showed that some diabetes household income were lower than the average level and diabetic care costs increased family burden.
