RESUMO
ABSTRACT Objective: There is little data about the remission phase in adolescents and young adults with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1D). The aims of this study were to determine the prevalence of remission and its predicting factors among adolescents and young adults with newly diagnosed T1D and to assess the association between remission and long-term glycemic control in this population. Subjects and methods: This is a longitudinal and retrospective study including 128 type 1 diabetic patients aged between 12 and 30 years at diabetes onset. Clinical, biological and therapeutic features were collected at diagnosis and for 5 years after diagnosis. Remission was defined by an HbA1c < 6.5% with a daily insulin dose < 0.5 IU/kg/day. Results: Twenty-three patients (18%) experienced a remission. The peak of remission prevalence was at 6 months after diabetes diagnosis. An insulin dose at discharge <0.8 IU/kg/day was independently associated with remission (p=0.03, adjusted OR [CI 95%] = 0.2 [0.1-0.9]). A low socioeconomic level was independently associated with non remission (p=0.02, adjusted OR [CI 95%] = 4.3 [1.3-14.3]). HbA1c was significantly lower during the first five years of follow-up in remitters. The daily insulin dose was significantly lower during the first four years of follow-up in remitters. Conclusions: Occurrence of remission in adolescents and young adults with newly diagnosed T1D is associated with better glycemic control and lower insulin requirements during the first 5 years of follow-up. A lower initial dose of insulin was associated with a higher percentage of remission.
