Type 1 diabetes diagnosed before age 35 (2000–2022) is linked to higher all-cause mortality versus matched diabetes-free controls, with an adjusted hazard ratio of 3.66.
- Why it matters: Despite advances in diabetes care technologies, it remains unclear how contemporary mortality risk compares with non-diabetes populations and whether sex and diagnosis era modify that risk.
- What they did: In a retrospective cohort from Maccabi Healthcare Services, 4,299 individuals with type 1 diabetes were matched 1:4 by sex and age to 17,196 controls, then analyzed with Cox regression through 2023.
- The result: Excess mortality was higher in females than males (adjusted HR 8.40 vs 2.90; P-interaction = 0.02), and the mortality association was attenuated for diagnoses in 2011–2022 versus 2000–2010 (adjusted HR 2.94 vs 4.36).
