Type 1 diabetes

Trends in hospitalization for cardio‐renal disease and mortality in people with type 1 diabetes in England, 2009–2019

Diabetes Obes MetabPublished Repeated cross-sectional (sequential cohort) study

Authors' conclusion

Between 2009 and 2019, hospitalizations for cardiovascular disease increased at younger ages (20-74 years) and hospitalizations for kidney disease increased at all ages, but mortality from cardiovascular and kidney disease declined. All-cause mortality rates were unchanged.

Study context

Population
People in England with T1D aged ≥20 years, National Diabetes Audit (2006/2007 to 2016/2017)
Exposure
Trends over time, 2009–2019
Outcome
Mortality and complication (hospitalization) trends
Follow-up
2009-2019
Methodological detailssequential cohorts, National Diabetes Audit, discretized Poisson regression adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic deprivation and duration of diabetes
  • Sequential cohorts
  • National Diabetes Audit
  • Discretized Poisson regression adjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, socioeconomic deprivation and duration of diabetes

Main finding

As reported in the abstract

Composite CVD hospitalizations, younger people (increased): RR

1.07

95% CI 1.03–1.11

Composite CVD hospitalizations, elderly (declined): RR

0.91

95% CI 0.86–0.95

Observational data: associations, not effects.

Further findings

All-cause mortality by ethnicity and deprivation

Younger Asian and Black people had lower all-cause mortality than White; elderly Mixed, Asian and Black people had lower all-cause mortality
More deprived areas had higher all-cause mortality; deprivation gradient steeper at younger ages
