Incidence of diabetes mellitus in Spain as results of the nation-wide cohort di@bet.es study

Abstract: Our aim was to determine the incidence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in a nationwide population based cohort from Spain (di@bet.es study). The target was the Spanish population. In total 5072 people older than 18 years,were randomly selected from all over Spain). Socio-demographic and clinical data, survey on habits (physical activity and food consumption) and weight, height, waist, hip and blood pressure were recorder. A fasting blood draw and an oral glucose tolerance test were performed. Determinations of ser… Show more

“…The cumulative incidence rate of type 2 diabetes in 8.4 years of follow-up (7.5%) was similar to previous findings in Spain (6.5%) [24] and other European countries [25,26]. Importantly, the Kaplan-Meier curves show how the incidence rate of type 2 diabetes significantly increased with the SF quartiles, with results of 13.5%, 8.2%, 4.94% and 3.8% in the fourth, third, second and first quartiles, respectively.…”

“…Model selection was repeated for every combination of exposure variables (i.e., high-and medium-vs. low-exposure groups or continuous per 5-dB increase) and the outcome to ensure similar selections of covariates. Finally, we added two variables of age and sex to present the biological plausibility and one variable of a family history of diabetes to account for genetic effects 42,43 in creating the final model (i.e., Model 3). The step to select a priori important variables into the model can avoid overfitting 39,44 .…”

“…According to epidemiological studies, 415 million people in the world are affected by T2DM [3], but this could be an underestimation, since, according to the International Diabetes Federation, there are 46.5% of people with T2DM still undiagnosed. In Spain, one of the main causes of this large number of people with T2DM is the increasingly aged demographic structure, since this is considered a risk factor for the disease [4].…”
