Popis: | AIM: We tested the hypothesis of a more aggressive disease process at diagnosis of type 1 diabetes during fall and winter, the colder seasons with consistently observed higher incidence of type 1 diabetes. METHODS: Seasonality in the manifestation of type 1 diabetes was examined in 4993 Finnish children and adolescents. Metabolic characteristics, beta-cell autoantibodies and HLA class II genetics were analysed at clinical diagnosis. RESULTS: Significant seasonality was observed with higher number of new cases during fall and winter (n = 1353/27.1% and n = 1286/25.8%) compared with spring and summer (n = 1135/22.7% and n = 219/24.4%) (p |
