title: [Epidemic outbreaks of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus].
abstract: Analysis of annual and seasonal incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in children living in 4 Russian cities in the 1980s has shown only four rises of annual morbidity in three cities, but only one of them recorded in 1983 in Moscow conformed to the criteria of an epidemic outbreak of the disease. The incidence of the disease predominated by 29% in autumn-winter, though there was no clear-cut correlation between diabetes incidence, on the one hand, and incidence of influenza and acute respiratory diseases, on the other.
