1365-P: Metabolic Control Three Years after Diagnosis in Children with T1D: Is DKA at Onset or HbA1c at Onset Closer Associated with Third Year HbA1c? Data from the International Pediatric Diabetes Registry SWEET

Objective: To establish if DKA at onset or HbA1c at onset is closer associated with metabolic control three years after diagnosis in a large, heterogeneous, international T1D cohort. Methods: Data were collected from the international diabetes registry SWEET. 1420 T1D children (54% boys; 994 from Northern Europe, 341 from Southern Europe, 85 from America/Canada), diagnosed before 18 years, with documented clinical presentation and HbA1c at onset and follow-up data available were included. Patients were grouped according to presentation at onset: DKA with coma, DKA without coma and no DKA; and HbA1c at onset: low (HbA1c
