Educational Outcomes in Children and Adolescents With Type 1 Diabetes and Psychiatric Disorders.

ABSTRACT:

Importance

Research shows that children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes (T1D), compared with their peers without diabetes, have a greater risk of psychiatric disorders. However, no study has comprehensively examined whether having psychiatric disorders is associated with educational outcomes in children and adolescents with T1D.

Objective

To investigate educational outcomes in children and adolescents with T1D with and without psychiatric disorders.

Design, setting, and participants

This cohort study used data from multiple Swedish registers. The main study cohort included individuals born in Sweden between January 1, 1973, and December 31, 1997, who were followed up from birth through December 31, 2013. Data analyses were conducted from March 1 to June 30, 2022.
