Report on hospital admissions of children and young people with diabetes, 2015-2020
National Paediatric Diabetes Audit Admissions report (NPDA)
The National Paediatric Diabetes Audit (NPDA) has published a Report on hospital admissions of children and young people with diabetes, 2015-2020. Based on 38,095 diabetes related admissions between 1 April 2015 and 31 March 2020, it found that all cause admission rates remained constant in England and Wales, despite a downward trend in national HbA1c from 2015/16 to 2019/20. However, there was considerable regional variability. The report also found that rates of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) at diagnosis of Type 1 diabetes increased over five years.
Fourth round of the audit – 2022/23 report
National Audit of Care at the End of Life (NACEL)

Epilepsy12 organisational and clinical audits report, England and Wales (2020-22)
The National Clinical Audit of Seizures and Epilepsies for Children and Young People (Epilepsy12)
The National Clinical Audit of Seizures and Epilepsies for Children and Young People (Epilepsy12) has published its latest report on combined organisational and clinical audits for England and Wales. Based on data relating to 2020-22 (cohort 4), it found that more children and young people with epilepsy are receiving input from epilepsy specialist nurses and paediatricians, but there remain some children without such access (and rates of wider involvement from other key health professionals remain low).
Socioeconomic differences in the impact of oesophago-gastric cancer on survival in England
The National Oesophago-Gastric Cancer Audit (NOGCA)
The National Oesophago-Gastric Cancer Audit (NOGCA) has published a report on Socioeconomic differences in the impact of oesophago-gastric cancer on survival in England which looks at the relative survival among 39,167 patients diagnosed between April 2013 and March 2017. It found that relative survival of all patients with oesophago-gastric (OG) cancer was poor among the NOGCA cohort, at less than 20% at five years from diagnosis. Among patients with a plan for curative treatment, 5-year relative survival was over 40%.
