Key finding
The mean of the HbA1c of the total group after completion of the RCT, 12 months after diabetes diagnosis, was 43 mmol/mol (6.1%).
This study will explore the experiences of parents and children participating in a randomized controlled trial of the AIDIT treatment protocol for Type 1 Diabetes.

Plain-language summary
A plain-language read of the study’s main message and where it applies.
Study focus
This study will explore the experiences of parents and children participating in a randomized controlled trial of the AIDIT treatment protocol for Type 1 Diabetes.
Understanding family experiences in diabetes management can inform future research and improve support for families dealing with Type 1 Diabetes. Insights gained may help tailor interventions to better meet the needs of children and their parents.
The effectiveness of the AIDIT protocol remains unclear. The study may not generalize to all populations with Type 1 Diabetes. Parental burden was reported but not quantitatively measured. The sample size and demographic details are not specified.

The mean HbA1c level for the total group was 43 mmol/mol (6.1%) after 12 months.
Parents in the intervention group reported some burden from participation.
Parents from both groups expressed willingness to recommend participation in research.
Older children were more involved in decision-making than younger children.
