Popis: From data of the second nationwide incidence study in 1988-1990 on Insulin Dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) in children aged 0-19 years and of the population based register of mortality data the onset mortality in various age groups was calculated (table). Compared to the previous nationwide study in 1978-1980, the incidence of IDDM had increased, especially in the age group 4-19 years, but the onset mortality risk was significantly lower, although not yet zero. It is important to continue to monitor iht mortality of IDDM cases for trends and to get clues for prevention of such deaths.
