Aim: A hypothesized mechanism for increased type 1 diabetes risk among caesarean births is lack of exposure to the vaginal microbiota. Children born by prelabour caesarean are not exposed to the vaginal microbiota, whereas caesarean births during labour (intrapartum) may be exposed. The aim of this study was to estimate type 1 diabetes risk among children born by caesarean compared with normal vaginal delivery. Methods: This whole‐of‐population study linked routinely collected, de‐identified administrative data from the South Australian Early Childhood Data Project for all births from 1999 to 2013. Type 1 diabetes cases were identified using inpatient hospitalizations from 2001 to 2014 (ICD‐10‐AM codes E10‐E109). Type 1 diabetes risk for caesarean was assessed by Cox regression using two models: (i) caesarean vs. vaginal and (ii) prelabour or intrapartum caesarean vs. vaginal. Analyses were adjusted for confounding and multiple imputation was used to address missing data. Results: A total of 286 058 children born between 1999 and 2013 contributed to 2 200 252 person‐years, of which 557 had type 1 diabetes. Of all births, 90 546 (31.7%) were caesarean, and of these 53.1% were prelabour and 46.9% intrapartum caesarean. Compared with vaginal delivery, the adjusted hazard ratio for type 1 diabetes was 1.05 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.86–1.28) for caesarean, 1.02 (95% CI 0.79–1.32) for prelabour caesarean and 1.08 (95% CI 0.82–1.41) for intrapartum caesarean. Conclusion: There may be a small increased type 1 diabetes risk following caesarean, but confidence intervals included the null. The lower estimate for prelabour compared with intrapartum caesarean, and the potential for unmeasured confounding suggest that neonatal vaginal microbiota might not be involved in type 1 diabetes. What's new?: Evidence about caesarean section and childhood type 1 diabetes risk is mixed. Only one study reported whether type 1 diabetes risk differs by prelabour or intrapartum caesarean.A potential link between type 1 diabetes and caesarean section is lack of exposure to the vaginal microbiota. Prelabour caesarean births are not exposed to vaginal microbiota, whereas intrapartum caesareans presumably have some exposure.We found a negligible risk of type 1 diabetes for children who had intrapartum or prelabour caesarean, and the 95% confidence intervals were wide and included the null suggesting that neonatal vaginal microbiota might not be involved in type 1 diabetes.
