High Concentrations of Immunoglobulin G Against Cow Milk Proteins and Frequency of Cow Milk Consumption Are Associated With the Development of Islet Autoimmunity and Type 1 Diabetes-The Trial to Reduce Insulin-dependent Diabetes Mellitus (IDDM) in the Genetically at Risk (TRIGR) Study.
Trial report in The Journal of nutrition, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT00179777 (TRIGR - Trial to Reduce IDDM in the Genetically at Risk), which is not on this map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

Abstract
backgroundThe Trial to Reduce IDDM in the Genetically at Risk (TRIGR) (NCT00179777) found no difference type 1 diabetes risk between hydrolyzed and regular infant formula. However, cow milk consumption during childhood is consistently linked to type 1 diabetes risk in prospective cohort studies.
objectivesOur primary aim was to study whether humoral immune responses to cow milk and cow milk consumption are associated with type 1 diabetes in TRIGR children.
methodsTRIGR comprised 2159 children with genetic susceptibility to type 1 diabetes born between 2002 and 2007 in 15 countries. Children were randomly assigned into groups receiving extensively hydrolyzed casein or a regular cow milk formula and followed up until age 10 y. Type 1 diabetes-related autoantibodies and antibodies to cow milk proteins were analyzed. Infant formula intake was measured by structured dietary interviews and milk consumption with a food frequency questionnaire. Associations of milk antibodies and milk consumption with risk to develop type 1 diabetes were analyzed using Cox survival model.
resultsCow milk antibody concentrations both in cord blood [hazards ratio (HR) for islet autoimmunity: 1.30; 95% CI: 1.05, 1.61; HR for type 1 diabetes: 1.32; 95% CI: 1.02, 1.71] and longitudinally from birth to 3 years (HR for islet autoimmunity: 1.39; 95% CI: 1.07, 1.81; HR for type 1 diabetes: 1.43; 95% CI: 1.04, 1.96) were associated with increased risk of developing type 1 diabetes. The amount of regular infant formula was associated with reduced islet autoimmunity risk in the regular infant formula group (HR: 0.92; 95% CI: 0.85, 0.99). Furthermore, frequent liquid milk consumption after infancy was associated with increased risk of islet autoimmunity or type 1 diabetes.
conclusionsElevated cow milk antibody concentrations and high consumption of liquid milk after infancy are related to type 1 diabetes development in children with an increased genetic susceptibility to type 1 diabetes. Enhanced antibody concentrations to cow milk may provide a biomarker of immune system prone to develop islet autoimmunity. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT00179777.
