“…The finding that 33% of GADA positive patients in our cohort had one or both parents with diabetes, only slightly lower than seen in the GADA negative patients (42%) and much greater than found generally in the normal UK population [17,18], is striking. The presence of diabetes in the siblings was also similar in both groups.…”

“…The prevalence of diabetes in our population (4.9%) was less than that of the U.S. (6.9%) and greater than that of the U.K. (0.9-4.7%) (1,18), but the value of our population was comparable with that of other studies conducted in Japan (19)(20)(21). Our subjects were Japanese men from 30 to 65 years of age.…”

“…Generalizability to other races and females is not clear. Prevalence of diabetes in our population (4.5%) was less than that of US people (6.9%), similar to that for English men (0.9±4.7%), 1,18 and comparable with these of other studies in Japan. 19±21 Although the BMI in our subjects was less than that of Western All of the correlation coef®cients were signi®cant (P`0.0001).…”

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the independent effect of obesity in young adulthood on the risk of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (NIDDM). DESIGN: Retrospective cohort design. SUBJECTS: One-thousand, one hundred and ®ve Japanese male railway employees aged 30 y or older who received a health examination from February to May 1995. MEASUREMENTS: Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) for subsequent NIDDM determined by the WHO criteria or a physician's diagnosis, among men who were obese at ages 20, 25, or 30 y. RESULTS: Men who were obese (BMI ! 25.0 kg/m 2 ) at ages 25 or 30 y had signi®cantly positive ORs for NIDDM after adjustment for age and maximum BMI (8.20 and 3.94, respectively). Men in the top quintile of BMI at any age also had signi®cantly positive ORs for NIDDM (2.13, 7.92, and 3.49, at 20, 25, and 30 y, respectively). After mutual adjustment for BMI at age 20, 25 and 30 y, only obesity at age 25 y demonstrated a signi®cantly positive OR for NIDDM in both absolute and relative models (6.98 for BMI ! 25.0 and 9.99 for the top quintile, respectively). CONCLUSION: Men who were obese (BMI ! 25.0 kg/m 2 or top quintile) at age 25 y were at signi®cantly high risk of prevalent NIDDM in subsequent years, independent of age, maximum BMI, and BMIs at age 20 and 30 y.
