SDRNT1BIO is an ongoing cohort study of over 6,000 patients across Scotland. Eligible participants were adults aged 16 years and above with a clinical diagnosis of Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus, Monogenic Diabetes, or Latent Autoimmune Disease of Adulthood. Recruitment was focused on 10 of the 14 National Health Service (NHS) Board regions in Scotland, with certain boards excluded due to remote geographical locations and low population density. The main sampling frame used was the comprehensive SCI-Diabetes electronic health care record, a national register of patients with diagnosed diabetes. Recruitment was primarily undertaken at diabetes outpatient clinics, with some additional recruitment in renal units. Baseline data collection took place between 1 December 2010 and 29 November 2013.
