Silverio RNC, de Aquino Lacerda EM, Fortins RF, et al. - In 120 children and adolescents aged 7–16 with type 1 diabetes mellitus [T1DM] (mean age was 11.74 ± 2.88 years), but without any other chronic morbidities, researchers evaluated predictors of non-HDL cholesterol. This investigation was conducted at a referral outpatient clinic for the treatment of diabetes in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. For this cross-sectional study, they evaluated socio-demographic, anthropometric, dietary, and clinical factors, which involved measurements of serum lipids and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c). By 24-h dietary recall, food intake was evaluated. Data reported that the mean duration of T1DM was 6.68 ± 3.33 years. Investigators found that the mean intake of energy from carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids was 51.98%, 21.43%, and 26.57%, respectively. Investigators found that the mean intake of energy from carbohydrates, proteins, and lipids was 51.98%, 21.43%, and 26.57%, respectively. The energy intake from processed and processed foods accounted for 40.79% of total energy intake. The authors concluded that glycemic control was the major modifiable predictor of concentrations of non-HDL cholesterol, a significant cardiovascular risk indicator.
