Popis: From the results of our diabetes detection survey, in 1962 in the general population, of 847 children over 6 years old, there was no overt diabetes, except for one case of chemical diabetes without glycosuna. But since then, clinically speaking, it would appear that the incidence of childhood diabetes has gradually increased. Therefore, the Ministry of Education has taken note of this important trend arid has legislated the system of urinary test for all pupils. In Kumamoto Prefecture, urinary test, as for albuminuria and glycosuria, was carried out since 1973. The incidence rate of childhood diabetes in Kumamoto Prefecture was reported by Mimura in 1975. Namely, the incidence of diabetes in children under 6 and up to 15 years old found 18 cases of overt diabetes and 10 cases of chemical diabetes. The ratio of overt diabetes to chemical diabetes in children under 6 and up to 15 years old was 64.3 versus 35.7 per cent. In 1972, Rosenbloom, et al reported that 10.6 per cent of the chemical childhood diabetics who were followed, progressed to the overt biabetes. Therefore, it is very interesting to note how many per cent of our chemical childhood diabetics do progress to the overt diabetics. From this follow-up study, it will be expected that the mode of development of diabetes will be clarified, and whether there is a different character between juvenile -onset diabetes (JOD) and maturity-onset diabetes in the young people (MODY) or not.
