Medications taken during childhood increase the risk of diabetes

Scientists at the New York University School of Medicine confirmed that taking antibiotics during a cycle increases the risk of diabetes first. microbes that live in the intestines and play an important role in the immune system of children (Macrocobium) .The results show that the number of children treated with antibiotics in their infancy increases directly, treating the children. ; childr t three times during the first two years., and it has turned out that the number of people with type 1 diabetes has also doubled, according to "Russia Today". The researchers point out that the reason lies in the intestinal microbiome, where results from experiments in laboratory mice showed that the number of Enterococcus bacteria, Blautia, Enterobacteriaceae, Akkermansia in the intestines of mice treated with antibiotics only in the intestines of other mice, Contribute to the development of autoimmune body, and thus attack the cells of the pancreas, which causes the development of the first type of diabetes.

These results are confirmed by screening results in children with type 1 diabetes, where the number of these types of bacteria in their intestines is much higher than usual. According to the researchers, the alteration of the intestinal flora causes an imbalance of the chemical compounds produced by the bacteria, affecting the functioning of intestinal mucosal genes, contributing to the activation of immune cells, which have a devastating effect on pancreatic cells. The researchers conclude that the use of antibiotics in the treatment of children whose immune system is not complete causes a change in the growth of their intestines and increases the risk of pancreatic injury, which causes Development of Type 1 Diabetes.
