Abstract |
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) incidence has doubled since the 1980's for children aged <5 years old, potentially relevant environmental factors having thus to be sought early in the patient's life. The identification of environmental factors that can explain the changing epidemiology of T1D requires comprehensive environmental inquiries. However, a limitation is the willingness of patients and families to complete these environmental questionnaires. Our objective was to identify patients' personal and social characteristics predictive of the return, time to the return and completeness of a comprehensive environmental questionnaire. |
