Size for Gestational Age Affects the Risk for Type 1 Diabetes in Children and Adolescents: A Swedish National Case - Control Study

Mai Ali

Abstract: The study's major goal is to determine how a baby's size for gestational age impacts the likelihood to acquire type 1 diabetes later in childhood. This review examined past, conflicting literature that looked into the relationship between birth weight and the onset of childhood diabetes. All of which, unlike this sizable, countrywide study, appeared to ignore additional confounders, that would have increased the possibility of errors.

Keywords: birth weight, gestational age, childhood type 1 diabetes, macrosomia, maternal diabetes
