Assessing the Burden of Diabetes by Type in Children, Adolescents, and Young Adults Network (DiCAYA) |
Description of Collaborative Activity: |
The primary goal of the DiCAYA network is to modernize diabetes surveillance efforts to capitalize on large-volume, electronic health record data streams and on recent advances in statistics and clinical informatics to provide accurate, timely, cost-effective, granular, and representative indicators of diabetes prevalence and incidence among children, adolescents and younger adults. The network aims to monitor overall trends as well as trends within subgroups (e.g., age, sex, diabetes type, socioeconomic status, urbanicity, geographic area). NIDDK is a DiCAYA research sponsor. |
