The consensus paper, published in the journal Diabetologia, sets out when children should be tested and how a diagnosis can be confirmed step by step through a series of tests. The aim is to identify type 1 diabetes reliably before symptoms appear, reduce the risk of severe metabolic complications and enable timely treatment and support.
