Global type 1 diabetes (T1DM) burden among children and adolescents aged 0–19 increased during 1990–2021. Incidence rose from 2.71 to 7.42 per 100,000 and prevalence from 20.75 to 56.59 per 100,000. Mortality and YLLs also increased, indicating worsening fatal outcomes. North America and Europe had the highest incidence and prevalence in 2021. Inequalities widened, with poorer countries bearing a growing and disproportionate burden of T1DM mortality and YLLs.
