This means that your child is in the top 10% of those most likely to develop Type 1 Diabetes. However, this is NOT a diagnosis of type 1 diabetes, and we expect the majority of children (97%) with an increased risk result from the genetic risk score will NOT go on to develop type 1 diabetes. You will receive more information about this result from a genetic counsellor. Your child will also be invited to the second phase of the screening program: autoantibody testing.
