Torque Teno Virus Primary Infection Kinetics in Early Childhood
Human torque teno viruses (TTVs) are a diverse group of small nonenveloped viruses with circular, single-stranded DNA genomes. These elusive anelloviruses are harbored in the blood stream of most humans and have thus been ...
Frailty modeling under a selective sampling protocol: an application to type 1 diabetes related autoantibodies
<p>Abstract<br></p><p>In studies following selective sampling protocols for secondary outcomes, conventional analyses regarding their appearance could provide misguided information. In the large type 1 diabetes prevention ...
Islet Autoimmunity and HLA Markers of Presymptomatic and Clinical Type 1 Diabetes: Joint Analyses of Prospective Cohort Studies in Finland, Germany, Sweden, and the US
<div><p>OBJECTIVE</p><p>To combine prospective cohort studies, by including HLA harmonization, and estimate risk of islet autoimmunity and progression to clinical diabetes.<br></p><p>RESEARCH DESIGN AND METHODS<br></p><p>For ...
Umbilical cord blood DNA methylation in children who later develop type 1 diabetes
<p><strong>Aims/hypothesis:</strong> Distinct DNA methylation patterns have recently been observed to precede type 1 diabetes in whole blood collected from young children. Our aim was to determine whether perinatal DNA ...
Tri-SNP polymorphism in the intron of HLA-DRA1 affects type 1 diabetes susceptibility in the Finnish population
<p>Genes in the HLA class II region include the most important inherited risk factors for type 1 diabetes (T1D) although also polymorphisms outside the HLA region modulate the predisposition to T1D. This study set out to ...
Non-HLA Gene Polymorphisms in the Pathogenesis of Type 1 Diabetes: Phase and Endotype Specific Effects
The non-HLA loci conferring susceptibility to type 1 diabetes determine approximately half of the genetic disease risk, and several of them have been shown to affect immune-cell or pancreatic beta-cell functions. A number ...
Association of different enteroviruses with atopy and allergic diseases in early childhood
<p><b>Background:</b> Enterovirus (EV) infections, being among the most prevalent viruses worldwide, have been associated with reduced risk of allergic diseases. We sought to determine the association between EVs and ...
Maternal Vitamin C and Iron Intake during Pregnancy and the Risk of Islet Autoimmunity and Type 1 Diabetes in Children: A Birth Cohort Study
Our aim was to study the associations between maternal vitamin C and iron intake during pregnancy and the offspring's risk of developing islet autoimmunity and type 1 diabetes. The study was a part of the Finnish Type 1 ...
