OBJECTIVES: We sought to determine if low birth weight (LBW) occurs more frequently in African American children with type 2 diabetes (T2D), and if patients with LBW differ metabolically.
STUDY DESIGN: We collected birth weight, anthropometric and metabolic data from African American children with T2D born in New Orleans from clinic charts. Comparable birth weight data from all African American infants born in New Orleans were obtained from Louisiana state vital statistics.
RESULTS: In African American patients with T2D, 14.3% had LBW compared to 13.9% in the reference population (z = 0.997, p = 0.33). There was no difference between LBW and non-LBW patients with regard to body mass index (BMI) at diagnosis, presenting insulin, c-peptide, glucose levels, or HbA1c one year post diagnosis.
CONCLUSIONS: African American children with T2D were not enriched with LBW individuals. LBW patients were not anthropometrically or metabolically different from non-LBW T2D patients. Thus prenatal factors may not be the driving force in the development of T2D in African American children.
