Anxiety was prevalent in youth with type 1 diabetes. Anxiety was associated with higher HbA1c, poorer self-management, poorer coping, depression, fear of hypoglycemia, and lower blood glucose monitoring frequency. Girls were at a higher risk of anxiety symptoms than boys. Differences in health outcomes related to state and trait anxiety were identified. Additional research is needed to improve current screening and treatment practices in youth with type 1 diabetes.
