Background Studies have suggested sex differences in the mortality rate associated with type 1 diabetes. We did a meta-analysis to provide reliable estimates of any sex differences in the effect of type 1 diabetes on risk of all-cause mortality and cause-specific outcomes.Methods We systematically searched PubMed for studies published between Jan 1, 1966, and Nov 26, 2014. Selected studies reported sex-specific estimates of the standardised mortality ratio (SMR) or hazard ratios associated with type 1 diabetes, either for all-cause mortality or cause-specific outcomes. We used random effects meta-analyses with inverse variance weighting to obtain sex-specific SMRs and their pooled ratio (women to men) for all-cause mortality, for mortality from cardiovascular disease, renal disease, cancer, the combined outcome of accident and suicide, and from incident coronary heart disease and stroke associated with type 1 diabetes.Findings Data from 26 studies including 214 114 individuals and 15 273 events were included. The pooled women-to-men ratio of the SMR for all-cause mortality was 1.37 (95% CI 1.21-1.56), for incident stroke 1.37 (1.03-1.81), for fatal renal disease 1.44 (1.02-2.05), and for fatal cardiovascular diseases 1.86 (1.62-2.15). For incident coronary heart disease the sex difference was more extreme; the pooled women-to-men ratio of the SMR was 2.54 (95% CI 1.80-3.60). No evidence suggested a sex difference for mortality associated with type 1 diabetes from cancer, or accident and suicide.Interpretation Women with type 1 diabetes have a roughly 40% greater excess risk of all-cause mortality, and twice the excess risk of fatal and nonfatal vascular events, compared with men with type 1 diabetes.
