Geographic Patterns of Childhood Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus
Abstract
Population-based registries of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) worldwide have reached the critical mass needed to investigate global patterns of the disease. International collaboration of 24 registries from 15 countries resulted in the first set of standardized incidence measures among divergent areas and ethnic groups. The average annual age-adjusted incidence under age 15 yr ranged from 1.7/100,000 person-yr in Hokkaido, Japan, to 29.5/100,000 person-yr in Finland during the years 1978–1980. The geographic differences in IDDM in childhood are rarely seen among chronic diseases. It appears that the risk for IDDM is determined by factor(s) correlated to the average yearly temperature of environment and to the ethnicity of the population at risk.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
