Perinatal risk factors for type 1 diabetes revisited: a population-based register study

Conclusions/interpretationPerinatal factors make small but statistically significant contributions to the overall risk of childhood-onset type 1 diabetes. Some of these risk factors, such as maternal obesity, may be amendable with improved antenatal care. Better perinatal practices may have affected some previously noted risk factors over time.
