Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Obesity
Development of obesity defined by the International task force on obesity cut offs for age and gender.
18 years
Type 2 Diabetes
Development of type 2 diabetes defined by diagnostic criteria in the Canadian Diabetes association 2008 guidelines in childhood (≤ 7 years) or adolescence (12-16 years).
18 years
Study Arms (1)
Next Generation Cohort
We will follow the children from mothers who either have T2D, GDM, or are controls.
Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
Children between the age of 0 and 18 or until a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Diagnosis of diabetes will be made according to the Canadian Diabetes Association criteria. There must be 2 abnormal blood glucose tests on different days OR 1 abnormal blood glucose test + symptoms of diabetes: Fasting plasma glucose of \> 7.0 mmol/L or Random glucose \> 11.1mmol/L or 2-hour glucose \> 11.1 mmol/L after a standard oral glucose tolerance test (75g).
You may qualify if:
- Pregnant women with type 2 diabetes, gestational diabetes, or no diabetes.
- From self-identified Indigenous heritage (e.g., Cree, Oji-Cree, Métis, Anishinaabe, etc.).
- Are delivering and residing in Manitoba.
- Mother/Father and children must be biological family members.
You may not qualify if:
- Mothers or children with type 1 diabetes.
- Residing outside of Manitoba.

Biospecimen
Pregnant women: A1C, lipoprotein profile, adiponectin, leptin, apo A and B, AST, and ALT, and HNF1a status. Birth: HNF1a status, apo A and B, glucose, insulin, c-peptide, and free fatty acid, leptin, and adiponectin, c-reactive protein (CRP), cytokines (interleukins and TNF alpha) will be tested on infant cord blood. Kidney ultrasound will be done to see the size of the kidney. 1 to 18: creatine, albumin measurements, and urinalysis will be collected every year. Starting at age 2 and every 2 years afterward, urine will be frozen to test for biomarkers that may predict kidney damage or uncover causes for kidney damage in the future. 7 to 18: A1C, OGTT, glucose levels, insulin levels, apolipoprotein A and B, c-reactive protein, lipoprotein profile, ALT, AST, leptin, and adiponectin. Between age 7 and 18: A1C, OGTT, glucose levels will be collected biennially. Blood samples will be frozen to test for biomarkers involved in developing T2D.
