The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) Study: 2018 Update

Abstract: Purpose of Review The environmental triggers of islet autoimmunity leading to type 1 diabetes (T1D) need to be elucidated to inform primary prevention. The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) Study follows from birth 8676 children with T1D risk HLA-DR-DQ genotypes in the USA, Finland, Germany, and Sweden. Most study participants (89%) have no first-degree relative with T1D. The primary outcomes include the appearance of one or more persistent islet autoantibodies (islet autoimmunity, IA… Show more

“…The TEDDY Study Group has already assessed a number of environmental candidate triggers, which include probiotics, infections, micronutrient, and microbiome, which could be responsible for recent increase in AD incidence (60). Other possible factors are altering the balance of gut microbiota due to probiotic or antibiotics use (61,62) and epigenetic changes induced by air pollutants (63).…”

“…Data on incidence trends in type 1 diabetes are important given the slower than hoped for progress in the identification of environmental trigger(s) of the disease and the development of prevention strategies. The Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study has evaluated multiple candidate environmental triggers, including infections, probiotics, micronutrients and the microbiome [11], since there are multiple pathways that may lead to the destruction of the beta cells resulting in type 1 diabetes [12]. TEDDY brings tremendous opportunity because of the inclusion of three European centres and three centres in the United States, and the capacity (to the extent feasible based on statistical power) to consider the differential impact of various potential environmental triggers across centres.…”

“…According to the EuroDIAB (European Diabetes) study, the incidence of T1D among children (boys and girls) of 0–4 years increased by 3.7%, 5–9 years increased by 3.4% in boys and 3.7% in girls and 10–14 years age groups increased by 3.3% in boys and 2.6% in girls per annum, respectively, over the last 25 years [2]. In addition, as per the combined data, the lifetime risk for occurrence of T1D has exceeded more than 1% in European and North American people [3]. The latest Environmental Determinants of Diabetes in the Young (TEDDY) study has reported that more than half of T1D cases are diagnosed after 20 years of age [3].…”
