Abbreviations: BMI, body mass index.
The underweight, normal weight, and overweight BMI categories for participants aged ≥18 years are <18.5, 18.5 to <24.9, and ≥24.9, respectively. The underweight, normal weight, and overweight BMI percentile categories for participants aged <18 years are <5th percentile, 5th to <85th percentile, and ≥85th percentile, respectively (calculated using the 2000 CDC growth charts). The two pediatric participants in the overweight category had BMI percentile of <86%.
Three participants indicated unknown for having a first-degree family member with T1D and were excluded from the denominator.
