OBJECTIVE - In a prospective hirth cohort study, we followed infants who had a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes to investigate the relationship between early growth and infant feeding and the risk of islet autoimmunity.RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS - Infants with a first-degree relative with type 1 diabetes were identified during their mother's pregnancy. Dietary intake was recorded prospectively to determine duration of breast-feeding and age at introduction of cow's milk protein, cereals, meat, fruit, and vegetables. At 6-month reviews, length (or height) and weight antibodies to insulin, GAD65, the tyrosine phosphatase-like insulinoma antigen, and tissue transglutaminase were measured. Islet autoimmunity was defined as persistent elevation of one or more islet antibodies at consecutive 6-month intervals, including the most recent measure, and was the primary outcome measure.RESULTS - Follow-up of 548 subjects for 5.7 +/- 3.2 years identified 46 children with islet autoimmunity. Weight 17 score and BMI z score were continuous predictors of risk of islet autoimmunity adjusted hazard ratios 1.43 [95% CI 1.10-1.84], P = 0.007, and 1.29 [ 1.01-1.67], P=0.04, respectively). The risk of islet autoimmunity was greater in subjects with weight z score >0 than in those with weight z score
