Objective To study the associations between timing and diversity of introduction of complementary foods during infancy and atopic sensitization in 5-year-old children. Methods In the Finnish DIPP (Type 1 Diabetes Prediction and Prevention) birth cohort (n=3781), data on the timing of infant feeding were collected up to the age of 2years and serum IgE antibodies toward four food and four inhalant allergens measured at the age of 5years. Logistic regression was used for the analyses. Results Median duration of exclusive and total breastfeeding was 1.4 (interquartile range: 0.23.5) and 7.0 (4.011.0) months, respectively. When all the foods were studied together and adjusted for confounders, short duration of breastfeeding decreased the risk of sensitization to birch allergen; introduction of oats
