TLDR
Analysis of data from this population-based study indicate that maternal smoking during pregnancy may be associated with a reduced risk of childhood type 1 diabetes.
Abstract
Aims/hypothesis The aim of this study was to investigate the association between maternal smoking during pregnancy and type 1 diabetes in the offspring, using complete population data sources available in Western Australia.

Maternal overweight and obesity are associated with increased risk of type 1 diabetes in offspring of parents without diabetes regardless of ethnicity

TL;DR: Increasing incidence of type 1 diabetes in children with non-diabetic parents may partly be explained by increasing prevalence of maternal overweight/obesity.

Perinatal Risk Factors for Development of Celiac Disease in Children, Based on the Prospective Norwegian Mother and Child Cohort Study

TL;DR: Development of celiac disease in children is significantly associated with sex of the child, maternal Celiac disease, and type 1 diabetes but not with intrauterine growth.

Maternal smoking during pregnancy and offspring type 1 diabetes mellitus risk: accounting for HLA haplotype

TL;DR: It was found that children exposed to smoking during fetal life were at higher risk of developing T1D in childhood when genetic predisposition in terms of HLA haplotype was taken into account.

Smoking and the Risk of LADA: Results From a Swedish Population-Based Case-Control Study.

TL;DR: A protective effect of smoking on autoimmunity and the risk of LADA was not observed, suggesting a protective effect could possibly be masked by a smoking-induced aggravation of insulin resistance, akin to the diabetogenic effect seen in individuals with type 2 diabetes.

Maternal-child blood group incompatibility and other perinatal events increase the risk for early-onset type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes mellitus

TL;DR: An early immunological event due to maternal-child blood group incompatibility, known to be associated with neonatal Beta-cell dysfunction, represents an increased risk for Type 1 diabetes in young children.

Continued increase in the incidence of childhood Type 1 diabetes in a population-based Australian sample (1985–2002)

TL;DR: The incidence of childhood-onset Type 1 diabetes in Western Australia has increased significantly over the past 18 years and shows no signs of abating, and in contrast to other studies, a higher rate of increase was not found in the youngest children.

The prenatal environment and type 1 diabetes

TL;DR: There is circumstantial evidence, but no proof of principle, that maternal or intrauterine conditions may modulate genetic risk of type 1 diabetes.

Type 1 diabetes mellitus in childhood: a matched case control study in Lancashire and Cumbria, UK.

TL;DR: The aim of the study was to identify environmental risk factors for insulin‐dependent diabetes mellitus (Type 1 DM) in childhood by identifying environmental factors associated with type 1 DM in childhood.

Maternal and neonatal risk factors for childhood type 1 diabetes: a matched case-control study

TL;DR: This case-control study found limited evidence of a reduced risk of the development of type 1 diabetes in children whose mothers smoked, compared to children whose Mothers smoked, and no evidence was found of a significant association between other maternal and neonatal factors and childhood type 1 Diabetes.
