The youngest patient of the Minsk City Children's Outpatient Endocrinology Department was only 10 months old at the time of being diagnosed with diabetes mellitus. The child is now 1 year and 9 months old. This was reported by the chief physician of the 2nd City Children's Clinical Hospital, Alena Lyashevich, BelTA reports.

Head of the department Alena Kislaya identified the primary symptoms of the disease in children: severe thirst, frequent urination, and increased appetite accompanied by weight loss. If such symptoms appear, parents are advised to consult a clinic and check blood sugar levels. According to the doctor, the earlier treatment is prescribed, the higher the chances of a favorable outcome.

The number of children with type 1 diabetes under the care of the municipal department is gradually rising. In 2006, there were 290, and in 2016 — 470. During January–September 2026, 845 patients were already registered.

According to Alena Lyashevich, an increase in incidence is being observed worldwide. Diabetes is a multifactorial disease: its development can be influenced by diet and environmental conditions. Specialists also do not rule out the impact of COVID-19. Another reason for the increase in detected cases is the advancement of diagnostic capabilities.
