Background National guidelines recommend that thyroid function is assessed at diagnosis of type I diabetes (TIDM) and annually thereafter.

Of these, 16 had normal thyroid function on reassessment after 45 (3-540) days. Abnormalities of thyroid function occurred more commonly in children with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) than those who did not have DKA (9/29, 31.0% vs 12/81, 14.8%, p
