Amaç: Tip 1 diyabetes mellitus tanılı 0.5-18 yaş aralığındaki hastaların demografik, klinik ve laboratuvar özelliklerinin değerlendirilmesi amaçlandı.Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışmaya Ocak 1999-2014 Haziran tarihleri arasında tip 1 diyabetes mellitus tanısı alan 282 pediyatrik olgu (133’ü kız, 149’u erkek) alındı. Hastalar, tanı yaşı (0.5-5.99 yaş, 6.0-10.99 yaş ve 11.0-18.0 yaş) ve tanı yılına (Ocak 1999-Aralık 2003, Ocak 2004-Aralık 2008 ve Ocak 2009- Haziran 2014) göre üç gruba ayrıldı. Tanı yılı, tanı yaşı, tanı mevsimi, cinsiyet, başvuru anındaki semptomlar ve laboratuvar bulguları bu üç grup arasında karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Çalışmaya tip 1 diyabetes mellitus tanılı 133’ü (%47.2) kız (ortalama yaş, 7.8±3.7 yıl), 149’u (%52.8) erkek (ortalama yaş, 9.0±4.2 yıl) olan toplam 282 tip 1 diyabetes mellitus (ortalama yaş, 8.5±4.0 yıl) tanılı olgu dahil edildi. En sık başvuru semptomları sırasıyla poliüri, polidipsi ve kilo kaybı olarak saptandı. Tanı anındaki diyabetik ketoasidozis sıklığı % 43.3 olarak saptandı. Hastaların en sık olarak (% 64.2) sonbahar ve kış mevsimlerinde tanı aldığı saptandı. Zirve tanı yaşı aralıkları 4-6 yıl (%18.1) ve 8-10 yıl (%17.0) olarak saptandı.Sonuç: Çalışma, literatür verileri ile uyumlu olarak, ülkemizde de tip 1 diyabet hastalığının görülme sıklığının yıllar içinde arttığını ve tanı yaşının düşme eğiliminde olduğunu desteklemektedir. Bu sonuçlar bölgesel özellik taşımakla birlikte ülkemizde yapılan diğer çalışmalar ile uyumlu bulunmuştur.
Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the demographical, clinical and laboratory features of patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus aged 0.5-18 years.Material and Methods: This study included 282 pediatric cases (133 females, 149 males) diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus between January 1999 and June 2014. Patients were divided into three groups according to age at onset (0.5 to 5.99 years, 6.0 to 10.99 years, 11.0 to 18.0 years) and date of onset (January 1999-December 2003, January 2004-December 2008, and January 2009-June 2014). Date and age of diagnosis, seasons of diagnosis, gender, symptoms at admission, and laboratory findings were analyzed and compared in these groups.Results: A total of 282 children diagnosed with type 1 diabetes mellitus (mean age 8.5±4.0 years), 133 (47.2%) female (mean age 7.8±3.7 years) and 149 (52.8%) male (mean age 9.0±4.2 years) were included in the study. The most frequent symptoms were polyuria, polydipsia, and weight loss, respectively. The frequency of diabetic ketoacidosis at onset was 43.3%. The patients were diagnosed most frequently (64.2%) in the autumn and winter. The peak age range at onset was 4-6 years (18.1%) and 8-10 years (17.0%). Conclusion: This study, in line with the literature, suggests that the incidence of type 1 diabetes has increased and the age of diagnosis at onset has decreased over the years in our country. These results were found in line with other studies carried out in our country as well although reflecting regional characteristics
