Цитата:
The major limitation of our study was the small number of exposed individuals within some of the exposure groups in the secondary analyses. Because the incidence of childhood type 1 diabetes mellitus in Denmark is approximately 22 per 100,000 person-years (27), these analyses included only a few exposed children with diabetes mellitus; among 368 children
exposed to OI or IUI treatment with FSH, only four children developed type 1 diabetes mellitus. Consequently, the results of these secondary analyses should be interpreted with caution. Furthermore, the data sources and the limited number of exposed children did not allow us to address potential
confounding by indication, such as the use of a sibling design or by including a comparison group of infertile couples who conceived spontaneously.
