Risk factors for expression and progression of limited joint mobility in insulin-dependent childhood diabetes

All long-term complications were significantly associated with limited joint mobility (LJM). Longer duration of the disease and higher mean glycated haemoglobin level are independent predictors for expression of LJM. Thus, improvement of metabolic control in diabetic patients before puberty may diminish the expression and progression of LJM.
