Rising incidence of IDDM in Europe
PJ Bingley and EA Gale
Department of Diabetes and Immunogenetics, St. Bartholomew's Hospital, London, England, United Kingdom.
A rising incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM) has been
reported in many northern European countries, with a rate equivalent to a
doubling time of 20-30 yr in some. North American and Japanese studies
report a similar trend, although they are less uniform in their findings.
Although the number of genetically susceptible individuals within these
populations has increased, the rapidity of the change suggests that
environmental factors are responsible. If these could be identified,
primary prevention might become possible.
