Overview
Risk factors for type 1 Diabetes Mellitus include family history, genetics, geography, congenital rubella infection, cesarean infection, higher birth weight, older maternal age, low maternal intake of vegetables, entero-viral infection, frequent respiratory or enteric infections, early exposure to cereals, root vegetables, eggs and cow's milk, infant weight gain, persistent or recurrent entero-viral infections, overweight or increased height velocity, high glycemic load, fructose intake, dietary nitrates or nitrosamines, puberty, psychological stress and low vitamin D levels.
Risk Factors
- Risk factors for type 1 Diabetes Mellitus include:[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19]
- Family history:
- There is a risk of developing type 1 diabetes mellitus in close relatives of a patient with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
- Children who have siblings with type 1 diabetes mellitus started before age of 5 have 3-5 fold higher chance of type 1 diabetes mellitus development before 20 years old, compared to children whose siblings had type 1 diabetes mellitus between 5-15 years old.
- Offspring of an affected father have 7% chance of type 1 diabetes mellitus, whereas when mother is affected there is only 2% to 3% risk of type 1 diabetes mellitus development in offspring.
- Genetics: The presence of certain genes associated with an increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes mellitus.
- Geography: Risk is elevated with increased distance from equator
- Congenital rubella infection
- Maternal entero-viral infection
- Cesarean section
- Higher birth weight
- Older maternal age
- Low maternal intake of vegetables
- Radiation exposure
- A study done on Gomel city population with radiation exposure after the Chernobyl incident demonstrated increased incidence of type 1 diabetes mellitus.
- Enteroviral infection
- Frequent respiratory or enteric infections
- Abnormal microbiome
- Early exposure to cereals, root vegetables, eggs and cow's milk
- Infant weight gain
- Serious life events
- Persistent or recurrent entero-viral infections
- Overweight or increased height velocity
- High glycemic load and fructose intake
- Dietary nitrates or nitrosamines
- Puberty
- Steroid treatment
- Insulin resistance
- Psychological stress:
- There are evidences supporting that normal weighted patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus who experienced moderate to high stress had significantly higher mean blood glucose concentrations, compared to those who reported minimal psychological stress. This relationship could be related to less dietary or therapy adherence in diabetic patients who encountered high stress level.
- Low vitamin D levels
- SARS-CoV-2 (a subtype of coronavirus that causes coronavirus disease 2019)
- Possible β cell damage caused by SARS-CoV-2 can cause to insulin deficiency.
- Some patients with COVID-19 have been presented with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA).
- In one study prevalence of Cannabis use was 30% among type 1 diabetic patients and was related to higher chance of diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), possibly due to increased intestinal motility and hyperemesis. Nevertheless, further investigations should be done to confirm cannabis use as a risk factor of type 1 diabetes mellitus and DKA.
