The authors observed that diabetes-prone non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice are lymphopenic and have reduced numbers of T cells compared to non-autoimmune strains, such as wild type BALB/c mice, NOD MHC-matched B10 mice and congeneic B6.Idd3.NOD mice that contain a 0.35 centimorgan protective interval from B6 mice and do not develop diabetes.

Although the point estimate was protective, the confidence interval is wide and does not exclude an increase in risk.

24 We calculated test characteristics at 3, 5, 8, and 10 years of follow-up to estimate the duration of protective effect at intervals currently recommended for cytology (3 and 5 years) and some of the lengthened intervals for HPV based screening (5, 8, and 10 years).
