A total of 250 children with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM), having age at onset of diabetes < or = 18 years were studied. Their height at onset of diabetes was compared with that of the normal age- and sex-matched control population. No differences were observed in the heights of the two groups of children. Therefore, our results were similar to that found in Japan and differed from the reports in European children with IDDM in whom an increased growth velocity was noted before the onset of IDDM.
共研究了250名胰岛素依赖型糖尿病（IDDM）患儿，其糖尿病发病年龄≤18岁。将他们糖尿病发病时的身高与年龄和性别匹配的正常对照人群的身高进行比较。两组儿童的身高未观察到差异。因此，我们的结果与日本的研究结果相似，与欧洲IDDM儿童的报道不同，后者在IDDM发病前生长速度加快。
