Abstract

Objective:To investigate the incidence of type 1 diabetes in Hainan children.Methods:According to the demands of WHO DiaMond Project,all the newly diagnosed cases of type 1 diabetes under 15 years old during 1989~1996 were retrospectively registered by the capture recapture method.Results:The population under 15 years old was about two million,and 53 cases of type 1 diabetes (male 25,female 28) were found.50 of them were Han nationality(94 3%) and 3 cases were the other nationalities(5 6%).There was no significant difference between the two incidences according to their population ratios.The total ascertainment corrected incidence was 0.40/100 000/yr(95% CI:0.37~0.42).Conclusion:The Hainan children incidence of type 1 diabetes is lower than the average level of the whole country,which suggested that the incidence in south China is lower than that in north region.
