Background PrePubertal children with type 1 diabetes mellitus are shorter than their non- diabetic peers. we aimed to evaluate the role of HbA1c and IGFBP-3 in this phenomenon. Aim of the work: The aim of the study was to evaluate the effect of glycemic control on the growth and IGFBP-3, represented by height, weight, height and weight percentiles for age in a sample of prepubertal Egyptian children with T1DM. Patients and Methods This study was a cross sectional study conducted on 80 pre-pubertal Egyptian children, divided into 25 Males and 25 Females with T1DM and 30 age matched controls (15 Males and 15 Females), the participants were recruited from the Outpatient Clinic of the Pediatric Department of Ain Shams University Hospitals and the National Institute of Diabetes and Endocrinology in Cairo, Egypt during the period from July 2018 to August 2019. Anthropometric measures including height and weight were obtained and used to calculate the height and weight percentiles using the CDC calculators. HbA1c as well as IGFBP-3 levels were tested. Results The mean age (years) of the participants was (9.671±2.24) for male patients, (9.22 ± 2.19) for female patients and (8.39 ± 2.034) for controls. The height found to be lower in the children with T1DM when compared to the disease-free controls with median values of (129.287 ± 13.410) in male patients, (127.727 ±10.155) in female patients and (136.760 ± 13.431) in the controls. the height and weight percentiles (%) were found to be lower in the children with T1DM when compared to the disease-free controls, the height percentile with median values of 14.54 (IQR 27.95) in male patients, 17.93 (IQR 29.20) in female patients and 87.07 (IQR 20.48) in the controls. the weight percentile with median values of 40.68 (IQR 40.83) in male patients, 30.64(IQR 35.59) in female patients and 85.18 (IQR 20.17) in the controls. A negative correlation between HbA1c (%) and serum IGFBP-3 (ng/ml), height and height percentile were found with (0.014, 0.049 and 0.012) as well as a positive correlation between serum IGFBP-3 and height, height and weight percentiles (%), were found with (,0.004, 0.009 and 0.005 respectively). Serum IGFBP-3 levels were also found to be significantly lower in patients (P &amp;lt; 0.001) with a mean value of (198.6 ± 45.335) in male patients and (168.4 ± 44.317) in female patients and (285.333 ± 61.936) in the disease-free controls. Conclusion Serum IGFBP-3 levels (ng/ml) as well as growth are negatively affected in prepubertal children with T1DM in relation to the glycemic control.
