Trial summary

The researchers study time trends of childhood-onset type 1 diabetes and its most serious complication, end-stage renal disease. They further analyse physical, psychological and socio-economic long-term effects on patients and families to identify potentially preventive factors in a population perspective.

Study population: The Swedish Childhood Diabetes Register (SCDR) is based on collaboration with all paediatric clinics in Sweden; from 1977 until 2010 the clinics helped with data collection. Since 2011 the National Board of Health provides new incident data from insulin pre-scriptions using the Prescribed Drug register (PDR). It recruits all cases of type 1 diabetes in children below 15 years. To each case four controls have been assigned through Statistics Sweden.

Who may be able to join

  • Two prescriptions of insulin in the Prescribed Drug register.
  • Age below 15 years of age. Controls are of the same age and born in the same municipality as the cases.

Who cannot join

  • No

About this study

Official title: Physical, Psychological and Socioeconomic Effects of Childhood Onset Diabetes in Sweden - Longitudinal Register Based Studies

The researchers study time trends of childhood-onset type 1 diabetes and its most serious complication, end-stage renal disease. They further analyse physical, psychological and socio-economic long-term effects on patients and families to identify potentially preventive factors in a population perspective. The researchers investigate the economic burden of disease and study and improve statistical methods for case-control data. The projects use a longitudinal nationwide database involving about 23 000 childhood-onset diabetes cases with maximum follow-up of 48 years and for each case 4 matched controls. The Swedish Childhood Diabetes Register is linked to a number of official, Swedish registers: the Renal register, the Cause of Death register, the National Patient register, the Prescribed Drugs register, the Cancer register and the Integrated Database for Labour Market Research. The researchers use GAM modelling for time trend analyses, standard case-control/cohort analyses, Cox regression for life table analyses, linear fixed effect probability for career development and propensity score models for confounding. The project group is multidisciplinary and involves experts in paediatrics, nephrology, epidemiology, health economics and statistics. This unique database and team continues to yield population-based new knowledge on the consequences of this increasingly common chronic childhood-onset disease.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) and End-Stage Renal Disease, run by Umeå University at 1 site in Sweden.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 24 Mar 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Sweden. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Incidence of type 1 (time frame: From the inception of the data base in July 1977 through 2029). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 24 Mar 2025.
