“…18.19 Similarly, 65% of the 304 patients in Taiwan and 49% of newly diagnosed diabetic children in Kuwait presented with diabetic ketoacidosis. 20,21 The lower incidence of DKA in the current study compared with other َ Asian populations may be due to geographical and racial variations or environmental factors. It may also be due to better access to medical advice and early diagnosis of diabetes by physicians.…”

“…Verschillende studies tonen aan dat het percentage DKA bij nieuwe 'diabeten' kan oplopen tot bijna 70%, waarbij met name de jonge kinderen hierop een grotere kans hebben. [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Een Amerikaanse studie van Rewers et al laat zien dat 37% van de kinderen < 5 jaar zich presenteerde met een DKA, terwijl dat bij kinderen > 14 jaar 15% bedroeg. 16 Onze studie laat daarentegen geen duidelijke relatie zien tussen de leeftijd van de patiënt bij presentatie en het optreden van DKA.…”
