“…Figure 1 shows the map of the WPR, and Table 2 reports the temporal changes in the prevalence of diabetes in these countries. The rising trend in the developing countries is considerably steeper compared with the developed countries (1,12,14,15,(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27)(28)(29)(30)(31)(32)(33)(34). In recent decades, apart from the WHO STEPS studies (11), there have been very few national diabetes studies for the Pacific Ocean nations (14).…”

The last three decades have witnessed an epidemic rise in the number of people with diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes, and particularly in developing countries, where more than 80% of the people with diabetes live. The rise of type 2 diabetes in South Asia is estimated to be more than 150% between 2000 and 2035. Although aging, urbanization, and associated lifestyle changes are the major determinants for the rapid increase, an adverse intrauterine environment and the resulting epigenetic changes could also contribute in many developing countries. The International Diabetes Federation estimated that there were 382 million people with diabetes in 2013, a number surpassing its earlier predictions. More than 60% of the people with diabetes live in Asia, with almost one-half in China and India combined. The Western Pacific, the world’s most populous region, has more than 138.2 million people with diabetes, and the number may rise to 201.8 million by 2035. The scenario poses huge social and economic problems to most nations in the region and could impede national and, indeed, global development. More action is required to understand the drivers of the epidemic to provide a rationale for prevention strategies to address the rising global public health “tsunami.” Unless drastic steps are taken through national prevention programs to curb the escalating trends in all of the countries, the social, economic, and health care challenges are likely to be insurmountable.

“…In recent preceding studies on the association between diabetes mellitus and social factors in the general population, those with lower education level had a higher proportion of diabetes mellitus [14,15], as did single women [14] and divorced and widowed women [16]. Our study assessing the association diabetes mellitus has with socio-environmental factors among patients with schizophrenia provides new clues for preventing diabetes mellitus complications among these patients.…”

“…As for factors assessing the relationships between schizophrenia and diabetes mellitus [6,[14][15][16][17][18][19], we gathered the following items: age, gender, total length of hospitalization during the study period, and prescription of antidiabetics from health insurance claims, and body mass index (BMI), psychological symptoms, activities of daily living disorder (ADL disorder), current/past history of hypertension, current/past history of hyperlipidemia, prescription of antipsychotics, and socio-environmental factors such as education history, type of hospitalization, type of social insurance, marital status, and living arrangement from electronic medical records. Among patients with schizophrenia hospitalized since before December 31, 2012, we counted the total length of hospitalization from January 1, 2013, and defined 730 days as maximal length.…”

Objective This study aimed to examine epidemiologically socio-environmental factors associated with diabetes mellitus among patients hospitalized with schizophrenia in Japan. Methods This was a cross-sectional study from a single psychiatric hospital. Study patients were adults aged C20 years who were hospitalized with schizophrenia one or more times between January 2013 and December 2014. From electronic medical records or health insurance claims, we extracted schizophrenia patients with an F2 code according to ICD-10, and assessed the association of various factors with diabetes mellitus among these patients in a multivariable analysis. Results During the 2-year period, there were 1899 patients hospitalized with a psychiatric disorder one or more times. Of them, a total of 770 adults with schizophrenia (285 men and 485 women) were eligible for our analysis. The standardized prevalence ratio of diabetes mellitus was 2.0 [95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.6-2.5] among men and 3.0 (95 % CI 2.5-3.6) among women in this hospital. There were no socio-environmental factors associated with diabetes mellitus among men. Among women, factors such as a 730-day hospitalization [adjusted odds ratio (OR) 3.82: 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.52-9.64], and a medical protection/compulsory/discrimination hospitalization (adjusted OR 0.60, 95 % CI 0.36-0.99) were associated with diabetes mellitus. Compared with women living alone, those who were unmarried and lived together with someone had a significantly lower adjusted OR (0.41, 95 % CI 0.21-0.81). Conclusions Socio-environmental factors such as length of hospitalization, type of hospitalization, and marital status and living arrangement were associated with diabetes mellitus among hospitalized women with schizophrenia.

“…It is observed from the present study results that occurrence of diabetes is more common among females (59.00 per cent) than males (41.00 per cent) and these findings are in tuned with the findings of Ahmed et al, (2011) who also reported greater prevalence of diabetes among females (8.3 per cent) than males (3.6 per cent). However, Hwang and Shon (2014) found that there is greater prevalence of diabetes (55.5 per cent) among males than the females (45.5 per cent).…”
