Abstract
MacMillan and co-workers reported the ages and month of detection of all new insulin-dependent diabetic patients (N = 120) admitted to Children's Hospital, Louisville, Kentucky, from 1960 through 1975 (Pediatrics 59:113, January 1977). They reported possible differences in month of onset for children 6 years old or older and those under 6 years. A similar observation was made by Bloom et al. in the British diabetes register study for children under age 5 years.1
We recorded age and month of diagnosis of new cases of juvenile-onset diabetes in Pittsburgh (N = 673), Gainesville, Florida (N = 127), and Texas (N = 741).
