Evidence-based Paediatric and Adolescent Diabetes brings together an international group of pediatric diabetologists to address the cause, course and complications of all types of diabetes. From a careful review of the latest research, they propose the best possible evidence-based recommendations for the care of children and the youth with diabetes.
