More Description"Evidence-based Paediatric and Adolescent Diabetes "brings together an international group of paediatric diabetes specialists to address the cause, course and complications of all types of diabetes. From a careful review of the latest research, they propose the best possible evidence-based recommendations for the care of children and the youth with diabetes.
The text provides the reader with an understanding across three different levels:
Reviews how strong the evidence is for recommending one approach over another
Highlights areas where evidence is not based on the types of studies needed to provide highgrade recommendations, but where there is a general consensus as to the most sensible approach
Identifies the issues that remain inadequately addressed such that no definitive recommendations can be made
As the incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus continues to increase worldwide, and type 2 is being seen in more young people, this timely volume will help a wide range of health care professionals deliver the best possible care to their young patients."
