Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The most common endocrine illness in children and adolescents is type 1 diabetes. It is distinguished by a lack of insulin synthesis and necessitates daily insulin injections to keep glucose levels under control. As a result, there are numerous medical approaches to its management, such as levels of glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) as a marker of glycemic control during the previous three months and monitoring of blood glucose levels, which affect the patient's mental health and quality of life. Type 1 diabetes complications and poor quality of life are widespread. Diabetes therapy is difficult during puberty and adolescence. Adolescents with T1D have poor metabolic control and a higher rate of acute complications. Because the onset of adolescence is frequently associated with decreased adherence to therapy and an increased risk of psychological illnesses.
