Summary

This is an observational study of children and young adults ages 6-20 years with type 1 diabetes and age- and race-matched controls. The investigators will be examining blood and urine hormone levels as well as measures of bone density including DXA and high-resolution peripheral quantitiative computed tomography. The investigators will also be collecting data regarding physical activity via use of wearable accelerometers. The investigators hypothesize that youth with type 1 diabetes will have slower bone accrual and impaired bone microarchitectural integrity compared with non-diabetic controls, and that bones of individuals with type 1 diabetes will not respond as well to physical activity. The investigators hypothesize that poor bone accrual will be associated with sub-optimal glucose control as well as lower levels of insulin-like growth factor 1.
