Diabetes Type 1 (Pediatrics)
Welcome to the Diabetes Type 1 Pediatric Project
Academy’s guideline on Diabetes (Types 1 and 2) was published in 2015. The target audience for the guideline is an adult population. Currently, the EAL does not have a guideline focusing on a population less than 20 years of age. In an attempt to fill this gap, the Academy’s Evidence Analysis Library will conduct a comprehensive systematic review focusing on the pediatric and adolescent population.
The overall objective of this project is to conduct a rigorous and comprehensive systematic review to evaluate and examine the extent, range and nature of research on Type 1 Diabetes (previously known as Juvenile Diabetes) and to identify gaps in existing literature in order to inform nutrition practice.
Use the link on the left to view the focus of the scoping review. Expand the section below titled Scoping Review Project Team and Disclosures for a listing of the volunteers who conducted the review. The systematic review will start in October 2020.
