Health Disparities Likely Emerge Early in the Course of Type-1 Diabetes in Youth.

These data revealed that youth did not meet glycemic targets at 1 year post diagnosis and that racial/ethnic minority youth had higher HbA1c 1 year post diagnosis, highlighting the need to optimize glycemic control and mitigate disparities early. Understanding the time course of these outcomes helps to inform the need for early interventions, particularly in disadvantaged patient populations, to lay the groundwork for improved control. Further research must also be done to better understand overlapping axes of disparities including race, ethnicity, and SES.
