Amaç: Tip 1 diyabette (T1DM) uzun dönem komplikasyonların azaltılması ve/veya geciktirilmesi için iyi metabolik kontrol zorunludur. Tip 1 diyabetli çocuk ve ergenlerde motivasyon kaybı, bıkkınlık ve psikolojik sorunlar metabolik kontrolü güçleştirmektedir. Bu çalışmada, genellikle orta-alt gelir grubu ailelerin çocuklarının izlendiği bir çocuk endokrin kliniğinde diyabetli olgularda metabolik kontrolün iyileştirilmesi amaçlandı.Hastalar ve Yöntem: Proje kapsamında tüm diyabetli çocuklarda esnek ve yoğun insülin tedavisine geçildi, beslenme eğitimleri tekrarlandı, tüm çocuklara diyabet eğitim kitapları dağıtıldı. Kötü kontrollü diyabetlilere endokrin polikliniğinde daha çok zaman ayrıldı. Zorunlu durumlarda kan şekeri regülasyonu için hastaneye yatış yapıldı. Başlangıçtaki ve bir yılın sonundaki ortalama HbA1c değerleri karşılaştırıldı.Bulgular: Çalışmada ortalama diyabet süresi 6.0±3.2 yıl olan 91 (46’sı erkek) tip 1 diyabetli çocuk ve ergen yer aldı. Çalışma başlangıcında ortalama HbA1c % 8.2 iken bir yılın sonunda % 7.8’e geriledi (p<0.001). Başlangıçta HbA1c’si % 9.0 ve üzeri olan 25 kötü metabolik kontrollü olgu var iken çalışma sonunda bu sayı 15’e düştü (p<0,001). Çalışmada yer alan kızların daha yüksek başarı gösterdikleri ve başlangıçta % 8.3 olan HbA1c düzeyinin 1 yılın sonunda % 7.7’ye gerilediği görüldü (p=0,002). Kızlarda 12 olan kötü kontrollü diyabetli sayısı 4’e düşmüştü. Ancak erkek çocuklarda başlangıç ve bir yılın sonundaki ortalama HbA1c düzeyleri arasında anlamlı fark yoktu.Sonuç: Diyabetlilere yeterli zaman ayrılması, yoğun insülin ve beslenme tedavileri ile birlikte metabolik kontrolde düzelme sağlayabilmektedir. Erkek çocuklarda iyi metabolik kontrol sağlanması kızlara göre daha büyük güçlük göstermektedir. Erkek tip 1 diyabetlilerde daha iyi metabolik kontrol sağlanması için farklı stratejilerin geliştirilmesi gerekmektedir.
Objective: In type 1 diabetes (T1DM), a good metabolic control is important to reduce and/or postpone complications. Achieving better metabolic control in children and adolescent with T1DM is difficult due to loss of motivation, psychological problems, getting bored and tired. The aim of this study was improvement of the metabolic control in patients with diabetes who come from middle and low income families. Patient and Methods: Within the project; all diabetic children were passed to flexible and intensive insulin treatment. Nutrition education was repeated by a dietitian and education books about diabetes were distributed to all children. Poorly controlled diabetics were allowed more times in their visits. If it was necessary for the glycemic regulation, patients were hospitalized. Mean HbA1c was compared at the beginning and at one year follow up examination.Results: Ninety-one children (46 boys) with mean diabetes duration of 6.0±3.2 years participated in this study. At the end of the year mean HbA1c was reduced from 8.2% to 7.8% and number of poorly controlled patients (HbA1c ı %9) decreased from 25 to 15 (p<0.001). The girls have shown higher success and their mean HbA1c level was reduced from 8.3% to 7.7%, and number of poorly controlled patients had fallen from 12 to 4 (p=0.002). However, there were no significant improvements in the mean HbA1c levels of the boys at the end of the year. Conclusions: To allow enough time to the diabetic children with intensive insulin and nutritional therapies can improve their metabolic controls. Achievement of good control in the diabetic boys shows a greater challenge. Different strategies must be developed to reach better metabolic control in boys with T1DM

The publication language of Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease is English.
Manuscripts submitted to the Turkish Journal of Pediatric Disease will go through a double-blind peer-review process. Each submission will be reviewed by at least two external, independent peer reviewers who are experts in the field, in order to ensure an unbiased evaluation process. The editorial board will invite an external and independent editor to manage the evaluation processes of manuscripts submitted by editors or by the editorial board members of the journal. The Editor in Chief is the final authority in the decision-making process for all submissions. Articles accepted for publication in the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics are put in the order of publication taking into account the acceptance dates. If the articles sent to the reviewers for evaluation are assessed as a senior for publication by the reviewers, the section editor and the editor considering all aspects (originality, high scientific quality and citation potential), it receives publication priority in addition to the articles assigned for the next issue.
The aim of the Turkish Journal of Pediatrics is to publish high-quality original research articles that will contribute to the international literature in the field of general pediatric health and diseases and its sub-branches. It also publishes editorial opinions, letters to the editor, reviews, case reports, book reviews, comments on previously published articles, meeting and conference proceedings, announcements, and biography. In addition to the field of child health and diseases, the journal also includes articles prepared in fields such as surgery, dentistry, public health, nutrition and dietetics, social services, human genetics, basic sciences, psychology, psychiatry, educational sciences, sociology and nursing, provided that they are related to this field. can be published.
