| Abstract | EPIDEMIOLOGY OF TYPE 1 DIABETES MELLITUS IN ROMANIAN CHILDREN BETWEEN 1995 AND 2001 V. Serban, B. Petrut, A. Vlad, A. Sima, M. Rosu Diabetes Clinic, Timisoara, Romania Background. In the last years, the incidence of type 1 diabetes in children is on the rise worldwide, especially in some age groups. The aim of the study was to update the epidemiology of type 1 diabetes in Romania with data from 2001. Subjects and method. As in the past years, the ONROCAD Study Group requested the Districtual Diabetes Centers to nominally report all new cases of type 1 diabetes in the age group 0-14 years. The data were processed regarding the general incidence, the incidence based on age groups, gender, districts, ethnic groups. Subsequently, we compared the results with those obtained in the previous years. Results. During 2001, 230 new cases of type 1 diabetes in children (0-14 years) were reported, leading to a general incidence of 5.66/100,000; exceeding the one in 2000 (5.05/100,000) and in all the previous years (table). Furthermore, we observed an increase in incidence both in the age group 5-9, and in 10-14 years. When the districtspecific incidence was computed, we had the surprise to notice the important increase in the incidence in Bucharest, since 1998: 6.25/100,000 in 1998; 8.16/100,000 in 1999; 9.66/100,000 in 2000, and 12.26/100,000 in 2001.
