Abstract
- In a retrospective hospital-based study, we determined onset age and sex of T1D patients from Kumasi/Ghana and NRW/Germany. GLO:55QH/01dec19:jdb12978-fig-0001.jpg PHOTO (COLOR): Onset age distributions and localization for T1D patients from NRW/Germany and Kumasi/Ghana. The relatively late T1D onset seen in the urban T1D cohort from Ghana may reflect differences in T1D susceptibility gene distribution between both populations as well as distinct prevalent infections in sub-Saharan Ghana.
