1. Case Report: Insulin-Dependent Diabetes Mellitus and Diabetic Keto-Acidosis in a Child With COVID-19

Author

Karin Nielsen-Saines, Erica Li, Adriana Martinez Olivera, Rachel Martin-Blais, and Yonca Bulut

Subjects
COVID-19, children, type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), diabetic keto-acidosis (DKA), SARS CoV-2, pediatric COVID-19, Pediatrics, RJ1-570
Abstract

During the COVID pandemic, a surge in pediatric Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) cases appears to be occurring, potentially due to the presence of autoantibody-induced immune dysregulation triggered by COVID-19. We describe one such case in a previously healthy 7-year-old with asymptomatic COVID-19 presenting with a high nasopharyngeal SARS CoV-2 virus load, detectable COVID-19 IgG antibodies, diabetic keto-acidosis and islet cell autoantibodies. COVID-19 is not a trivial disease in children and adolescents and can lead to lifelong sequelae such as T1DM. Raising awareness about a possible association between COVID-19 and T1DM in children is critical.
