Aims: To estimate the prevalence of undiagnosed type-2 diabetes in overweight Swedish school children 11-13 years old.Methods: BMI was measured in 5 528 school-children (11-13 years of age) attending the 6th grade, in five different regions in Sweden. Overweight was defined by international age-sex specific BMI cut-offs, corresponding to adult BMI cut-offs of 25 kg/m² at 18 years of age (ISO-BMI ≥25, n=1 275). Haemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was measured in 1 126 children with ISO-BMI ≥25. Children with a DCCT-aligned HbA1c ≥ 6.1% on two occasions underwent an oral glucose-tolerance test (OGTT) to establish diabetes diagnosis.Results: Twenty four children (2.1%) had at least one HbA1c-value ≥6.1%. Three of them had HbA1c ≥6.1% on two occasions and all of them had a normal OGTT.Conclusion: In this cross-sectional population-based screening study of a high risk group of 11-13 years old Swedish school children we found no indication of undiagnosed diabetes or impaired glucose tolerance.Key
