“…Low HDL levels increased the risk for IFG among our study cohort which was also observed in the Korean population. 44 Smoking did not show any significant risk for IFG in the Saudi Arabian population, which is also consistent with the findings related to the Japanese study. 45 Having a first-degree diabetic relative increased the risk for IFG in the Saudi Arabian population, but this was not the case with the second-degree relatives, which was also observed from the study con-ducted in the Indian population.…”

Background: Saudi Arabia is a community thrilled by sudden social and economical changes, leading to a sharp increase in the prevalence of abnormal glucose metabolism. Age-specific diabetes and impaired fasting glucose prevalence is the focus of this study with the expected risk factors. Methods: A nationwide, household, randomized, population based cohort of 18 034 participants aged ≥30 years was selected to test for abnormal glucose metabolism using fasting plasma glucose (FPG) according to American Diabetes Association (ADA) criteria. Results: The prevalence of diabetes was 25.4% with 40.3% being unaware of their disease, while impaired fasting glucose (IFG) affected 25.5% of the total sample. IFG to diabetes ratio was one in this study, decreasing with age and increasing with body weight. Age ≥45 years, hypertension, history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), and high triglycerides are the strongest risk factors in diabetic patients, while history of GDM, dyslipidemia, obesity, and high triglycerides are the most significant risk factors in IFG participants. Conclusions: Abnormal glucose metabolism has reached an epidemic level in this society, where half of adults and older are affected. Risk factors are behind this epidemic and the quick shift from IFG to diabetes in this society.

“…This finding could be related to many influences such as genetic and ethnic factors, inactive lifestyles and incorrect dietary habits. Age-specific prevalence rates of diabetes in some neighbouring countries and also previous studies in the Islamic Republic of Iran are compared in Table 5 (8,(16)(17)(18)(19)(20). As the table shows, the prevalence of diabetes in Yazd is greater than the average national level in Islamic Republic of Iran and those of the nearby countries.…”

Previous studies on type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Islamic Republic of Iran were mainly performed in provinces with large populations. This study determined the prevalence and risk factors of diabetes mellitus in an adult population (40-80 years old) from Yazd district. Multistage, systematic cluster random sampling was used in a crosssectional, population-based survey. Demographic, clinical and anthropometric data were collected, with diabetes defined as fasting blood sugar ≥ 7 mmol/L or a positive medical history of diabetes. The age-and sex-standardized prevalence of diabetes in 2090 individuals participants was 24.5% (95% CI: 22.2-26.8%), including 10.5% new cases. For each year of ageing, the prevalence of diabetes increased significantly by 4% and this trend was more pronounced in females than males. Low education and hypertension were significantly associated with diabetes prevalence. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus in Yazd is greater than the average levels nationwide and those of nearby countries. ‫ـكانية‬ ‫سـ‬ ‫ـة‬

“…Using the HbA1c cut-off, pre-diabetes prevalence in 2011 was reported to be 38.3% (men: 41%; women: 35.7%) in a community-based cross-sectional study of Korean adults aged 30 years or over 26. Another Korean study reported a pre-diabetes prevalence of 26.1% in men and 20.5% according to American Diabetes Association criteria 27. However, this study was based on a sample from rural areas.…”

ObjectiveLong working hours have been shown to raise the risk of various health outcomes. However, epidemiological evidence has shown inconsistent result in relation to type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and the association between long working hours and pre-diabetes among non-diabetic adults remains largely unexplored. We thus aimed to investigate whether long working hours were linked with pre-diabetes as determined by glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) level.DesignCross-sectional survey.ParticipantsThis study included 6324 men and 4001 women without diabetes from the 2010 to 2017 Korean National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.Primary outcome measuresThe study outcome of interest was pre-diabetes, defined as HbA1c values 5.7% to 6.4%ResultsLogistic regression was performed to obtain the ORs for pre-diabetes according to categories of work hour (40 hours/week, 41 to 52 hours/week, >52 hours/week), after adjusting for relevant covariates. Of the 10 325 eligible participants, 2261 (34.4%) men and 1317 (31.0%) women had pre-diabetes. No statistically significant relationship was found for women. In men, extended working hours (>52 hours per week) was associated with an increased likelihood of pre-diabetes, after adjustment for age, educational attainment, monthly household income, lifestyle related factors, perceived stress, family history of diabetes, hypertension, hypercholesterolaemia and other covariates (adjusted OR=1.22; 95% CI 1.03 to 1.46). In the subgroup analysis by occupational categories, the association was only apparent among men in blue-collar worker groups.ConclusionExtended working hours were significantly related to pre-diabetes in men, with no statistically significant association observed for women. Further subgroup analysis by occupational categories revealed that the increased odds of pre-diabetes associated with long working hours was only apparent among male workers of blue-collar occupations and shift workers.
