Method: The Web of Science database was searched using keywords. The titles and abstracts of the obtained publications were reviewed by a pediatric endocrinologist regarding their relevance to the intended subject and subjected to a second screening. Performance, co-citation, and co-occurrence analyses were applied to the publications that passed the screening. The analyses used R-based Bibliometrix software, Python, and Microsoft Excel. Results: Initially, 469 articles were obtained, and after screening, 284 articles were found relevant to the researched subject. The co-citation analysis resulted in three main themes: (1) Management and Clinical Outcomes of Type 1 Diabetes, (2) Deprivation and Socioeconomic Determinants Related to Type 1 Diabetes, and (3) Cumulative Effects of Socioeconomic and Cultural Factors on the Management and Outcomes of Type 1 Diabetes. Following the co-occurrence analyses, thematic areas such as Diabetes in Children/Adolescent Populations, Epidemiological Dimensions of Diabetes, Diabetes and Quality of Life, Technological and Insured Solutions Related to Diabetes, Pediatric Health and Diabetes, Insulin Application and Glucose Monitoring Strategies, and The Role of Health Policies in Diabetes Management were identified. Conclusions: These findings highlight health policymakers' need to develop more effective and inclusive strategies for socio-economically disadvantaged groups. Moreover, this study provides important data to explore how much emphasis researchers have placed on social determinants of health. This might serve as a basis for understanding how diabetes management and outcomes interact with socioeconomic and cultural factors. Thus, it will also serve as a foundation for awareness and method at the healthcare level.en10.18521/ktd.1430130info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDiabetesPediatricsSocialDeprivationDisparityPovertyBibliometricsArticle1722152291321037WOS:001520342200012N/A
