European WTCCC Cases = patients [that] received a clinical diagnosis of T1D at ,17 years of age and were treated with insulin from the time of diagnosis. Controls = T2D patients diagnosed between 25 and 75 years of age, were GAD autoantibody negative on testing, and were either treated with diet/oral hypoglycemic agents or had an interval of at least 1 year between diagnosis and the institution of insulin therapy

Performance Metrics

Disclaimer: The performance metrics are displayed as reported by the source studies. It is important to note that metrics are not necessarily comparable with each other. For example, metrics depend on the sample characteristics (described by the PGS Catalog Sample Set [PSS] ID), phenotyping, and statistical modelling. Please refer to the source publication for additional guidance on performance.

PSS000026 Cases were defined on the presence or absence of severe insulin deficiency (requiring insulin treatment at 3 years after diagnosis). We cate- gorized people as severely insulin defi- cient if they received continuous insulin treatment at ,3 years from the time of diagnosis and had a low measured C-peptide level (nonfasting measured ,0.6 nmol/L or equivalent fasting blood glucose level or posthome meal urine C-peptide–to–creatinine ratio)

European P2ID A cross-sectional cohort of people in whom diabetes was diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 40 years (n = 223), who had had diabetes for .3 years, and who had self-reported as white European from Devon and Cornwall in South West England. Known monogenic diabetes and secondary diabetes pa- tients were excluded.
PSS000083 Cases were clinically diagnosed with T1D before 17 years of age and treated with insulin from diagnosis. Patients with known MODY or NDM were excluded.
