Geospatial clustering of type 1 diabetes in Sweden: a cohort study based on all residential locations from birth to diagnosis

Our findings suggest that the development of type 1 diabetes in Sweden varies geographically and is associated with specific features of the local surroundings in early childhood. This is important knowledge as a basis for identifying possible environmental risk factors and the relationship with risk of type 1 diabetes in future studies.

Abstract

Our findings suggest that the development of type 1 diabetes in Sweden varies geographically and is associated with specific features of the local surroundings in early childhood. This is important knowledge as a basis for identifying possible environmental risk factors and the relationship with risk of type 1 diabetes in future studies.
