Objective To investigate the growth, development and health management of children with type 1 diabetes, and to provide guidance for the treatment of children with type 1 diabetes. Methods From June 2018 to June 2021, 86 children with type 1 diabetes diagnosed and treated in the Department of Endocrinology of our hospital from January 2000 to December 2002 were selected, including 41 males and 45 females, the onset age of 6-9 years old, all of whom were followed up by telephone. Height, weight, age of onset of youth, age of menarche, blood glucose control and complications were recorded and analyzed from onset to adulthood. Results The initial height of children were lower than those of children of the same age (P<0.05), and there was no difference in height between children of the same age and children of the same age when they reached lifetime height (P>0.05).The median age of initiation of puberty in boys was (12.10±1.50) years later than that in the general population (P<0.05), and the median age of initiation of puberty and menarche in girls were (11.20±1.40) years and (14.90±2.10) years later than that in the general population (P<0.05). 11.63% (10/86) of children HbAl-c <7.0%, 30.23% (26/86) in children with HbAl-c is 7.00% -8.00%, 58.14% (50/86) in children with HbAl-c > 8.0%. There were 1 (1.16%) cases of retinopathy and 4 (4.65%) cases of microalbuminuria. 84 cases (97.67%) were monitored for blood glucose or urine glucose, and only 2 cases were not monitored. Conclusion Due to poor self-control and growth, the blood glucose control of children with type 1 diabetes is often not ideal. Although complications are rare, most blood glucose control is not ideal and blood glucose detection is not enough. Therefore, It is necessary to strengthen the publicity and education of diabetes and regularly monitor blood glucose.
