title: [Prognosis and therapeutic goals of diabetes mellitus in children].
abstract: According to recent studies, the glycemic control of type 1 diabetic children remains largely insufficient, with glycated Alc hemoglobin levels averaging 9-9.5% after only a few years of evolution. This high incidence of retinal microangiopathy associated with such values should encourage pediatricians to optimise therapy and to organize patient management through specialized teams of doctors, nurses and dietitians.
