The rising prevalence of obesity in the United States has resulted in an increased incidence of T2DM in children and adolescents. T2DM now accounts for up to 45% of new cases of diabetes in the pediatric population. Many new medications have been developed for the treatment of T2DM, although few have been investigated in children. Although we have learned much in the past decade, more knowledge is needed regarding the unique aspects of T2DM in pediatric patients to optimize the prevention and treatment of this disease in children and adolescents.
美国肥胖症患病率的上升导致儿童和青少年2型糖尿病(T2DM)发病率增加。目前,T2DM在儿科糖尿病新发病例中占比高达45%。尽管针对儿童的研究较少,但已有许多新药物被开发用于治疗T2DM。虽然在过去十年中我们已经学到了很多,但仍需要更多关于儿科患者T2DM独特方面的知识,以优化儿童和青少年该疾病的预防和治疗。
