Objective To compare the clinical profile of long-term survivors and non-survivors with T1D(T1D) in India. Research design and methods This is a retrospective study of 76 individuals with T1D who had survived for at least 40 years ('survivors') and 51 individuals with T1D who had died with shorter duration of diabetes ('non-survivors'), from diabetes clinics in different cities of India. Prevalence of complications in both groups and causes of death of the non-survivors were analyzed. Retinopathy was diagnosed by retinal photography; chronic kidney disease (CKD) by urinary albumin excretion (micro- or macroalbuminuria) and estimated glomerular filtration rate; peripheral vascular disease (PVD) by Doppler measurement of ankle-brachial pressure index; coronary artery disease (CAD) based on history of myocardial infarction or coronary revascularization and neuropathy by biothesiometry. Results Mean glycated hemoglobin (8.4±1.5 vs 10.7±2.2%, p
