Proband hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) levels were measured at selective visitations. In our practice, the variability shown is a typical feature for toddlers with early onset diabetes, which could have been caused by unpredictable eating behavior among subjects of such age. The numbers accompanying each point in the graph reflect the total dose of insulin (U/kg/d).
