Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Background: The aim of this study was to identify the physiological factors influencing diabetes control in children with type 1 diabetes (T1D) using continuous subcutaneous insulin infusion (CSII) from diabetes diagnosis. Methods: This study focused on 163 children (81 boys) initiated with CSII within 2 weeks after T1D recognition and treated for at least 3 years. We analysed fasting C-peptide, GADA, ICA, IA2A, BMI z-score, total daily dose, and basal insulin. Patients were divided into groups according to their metabolic control: 7.5% > HbA1c ≥ 7.5% at the end of the study. Results: At the end of the follow-up, patients with HbA1c <7.5%, had a lower HbA1c level at diagnosis (11.7% vs 12.6%; P = 0.018), lower HbA1c level at both the first-year (6.7% vs 7.3%; P = 0.000) and the second-year (6.8% vs.7.7%; P = 0.000) follow-up, and a lower GADA level (P = 0.001). A multiple logistic regression analysis showed that HbA1c at diagnosis (P = 0.012), HbA1c at first year (P = 0.000), HbA1c at second year (P = 0.000), age at diagnosis (P = 0.047), GADA (P = 0.031), and basal insulin at third year (P = 0.032), influenced HbA1c <7.5% at the third year of follow-up. At the end of the study, 76% of patients started with CSII at the age <10 years and 49% of subjects initiated with CSII at the age ≥10 years achieved HbA1c ≤7.5%. Conclusions: This study shows that for those who initiated CSII at T1D onset, younger age, less intense autoimmune process, a low HbA1c at recognition, and good diabetes control during the first year of treatment were associated with long-term optimal glycaemic control.
