Abstract
Pediatric diabetes is a global health concern with significant inequalities and unmet needs in healthcare infrastructure, technological access, and funding (1). Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), neuropathy, and severe hypoglycemia are diabetes-related complications that place a significant cost and burden on patients, families, and healthcare systems (2–4). The worldwide rising incidence of type 1 diabetes (T1D) makes further deteriorates this situation (5). Therefore, creating solutions that address acute and long-term complications in various contexts is crucial. People with access to advanced technology have trouble incorporating state-of-the-art technologies into routine care (6). Those in resource-limited nations struggle with basic diabetic management. This Research Topic aims to bridges the gap between resource inequities and innovative solutions in the context of diabetes complications in children.File | Dimensione | Formato | |
