Sweden is nowadays a country of immigration, one fifth of the population is of foreign descent. In all five studies comprising this thesis we have used the concept of migration of people as a broad exposure, complying change of environment and perhaps lifestyle.

We have, in the first three papers, assessed the risk of incurring diabetes (T1D) for children and adolescents born to immigrant parents. The last two papers assess the metabolical status at diabetes onset and after three years of treatment for children born to these parents.
