The observation that Hispanics have lower all-cause and cardiovascular mortality rates despite increased rates of diabetes and obesity and lower socioeconomic status has been termed the "Hispanic paradox." The authors therefore examined the relation between ethnicity and mortality in 1,438 Mexican-American and 921 non-Hispanic White San Antonio Heart Study participants, aged 45-64 years when they enrolled between 1979 and 1988. Over an average of 14.5 years, 466 deaths occurred: 238 attributed to cardiovascular disease (death certificate International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision, codes 401-414 or codes 420-447 with the exception of code 427.5) and 117 attributed to coronary heart disease (codes 410-414). Age- and gender-adjusted hazard ratios for all-cause, cardiovascular, and coronary heart disease mortality comparing Mexican Americans with non-Hispanic Whites were 1.50 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.23, 1.81), 1.70 (95% CI: 1.30, 2.24), and 1.60 (95% CI: 1.09, 2.36), respectively. After adjusting for possible confounders, among diabetic individuals not using insulin, the authors found excess risk of all-cause, cardiovascular, and coronary heart disease mortality associated with being Mexican American; however, in nondiabetic individuals and insulin-using diabetic individuals, Mexican Americans and non-Hispanic Whites appeared to be at similar risk of mortality. Contrary to the prediction of the "Hispanic paradox," in the San Antonio Heart Study, Mexican Americans were at greater risk of all-cause, cardiovascular, and coronary heart disease mortality than were non-Hispanic Whites. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The health consequences of anxiety in late life have not been adequately investigated. We sought to examine the association between anxiety and death in an older tri-ethnic population. METHODS: A longitudinal population-based study of 506 older noninstitutionalized non-Hispanic Whites, non-Hispanic Blacks, and Hispanics aged 75 years or older from Galveston County. RESULTS: Average age was 80.8 (SD 4.4) and 50.8% were women. Older non-Hispanic Whites (21.6%) reported the highest prevalence of anxiety, followed by Hispanics (12.4%) and non-Hispanic blacks (11.3%) (P=.0001). High anxiety was significantly associated with an increased hazard of all cause death (HR 1.52; 95% CI 1.02, 2.28) and cardiovascular death (HR 1.90; 95% CI 1.06, 3.36); and was associated with an increased hazard of cancer death (HR 2.38; 95% CI 0.88, 6.45) during 5-years of follow-up. CONCLUSION: There is a high prevalence of anxiety in late life. Our results indicate an association between anxiety and increased risk of death in persons aged 75 and older. 相似文献

Microalbuminuria is associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular and renal disease in patients with diabetes and hypertension. The role of microalbuminuria as a predictor of coronary heart disease (CHD) has not been examined in large general-population cohorts, and its prognostic significance in persons with established CHD is uncertain. The authors examined the relation between microalbuminuria and incident CHD (1993-2002) in a population-based British cohort of 22,368 men and women aged 40-79 years without prevalent baseline CHD and evaluated its prognostic significance in 1,596 participants with baseline CHD. Participants were members of the Norfolk, United Kingdom, component of the European Prospective Investigation into Cancer and Nutrition (the EPIC-Norfolk Study). At baseline, participants were categorized into normoalbuminuria, microalbuminuria, and macroalbuminuria groups. During an average of 6.4 years of follow-up, 800 primary CHD events were registered. The age-adjusted incidence of CHD increased significantly across ordered categories of albuminuria (4.3, 4.4, and 5.6/1,000 person-years across tertiles of normoalbuminuria, 7.1/1,000 person-years for microalbuminuria, and 12.2/1,000 person-years for macroalbuminuria; p for trend < 0.001). The multivariate hazard ratio for incident primary CHD was 1.36 (95% confidence interval (CI): 1.12, 1.64) for microalbuminuria and 1.59 (95% CI: 1.10, 2.37) for macroalbuminuria. Among participants with established baseline CHD, the independent risk of all-cause mortality associated with microalbuminuria was 1.61 (95% CI: 1.19, 2.07). Microalbuminuria may be useful in identifying persons at increased risk of CHD and subsequent death in the general population. 相似文献

OBJECTIVES: This research studied the relative contribution of diabetes mellitus to the increased prevalence of tuberculosis in Hispanics. METHODS: A case-control study was conducted involving all 5290 discharges from civilian hospitals in California during 1991 who had a diagnosis of tuberculosis, and 37,366 control subjects who had a primary discharge diagnosis of deep venous thrombosis, pulmonary embolism, or acute appendicitis. Risk of tuberculosis was estimated as the odds ratio (OR) across race/ethnicity, with adjustment for other factors. RESULTS: Diabetes mellitus was found to be an independent risk factor for tuberculosis. The association of diabetes and tuberculosis was higher among Hispanics (adjusted OR [ORadj] = 2.95: 95% confidence interval [CI] = 2.61, 3.33) than among non-Hispanic Whites (ORadj = 1.31: 95% CI = 1.19. 1.45): among non-Hispanic Blacks, diabetes was not found to be associated with tuberculosis (ORadj = 0.93: 95% CI = 0.78, 1.09). Among Hispanics aged 25 to 54, the estimated risk of tuberculosis attributable to diabetes (25.2%) was equivalent to that attributable to HIV infection (25.5%). CONCLUSIONS: Diabetes mellitus remains a significant risk factor for tuberculosis in the United States. The association is especially notable in middle-aged Hispanics. 相似文献

The San Luis Valley Diabetes Study was undertaken to determine the prevalence, risk factors, and complications of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in Hispanics and Anglos (non-Hispanic whites), using a geographically based case-control design. The study was conducted in two southern Colorado counties that include 43.6% Hispanic and 54.9% Anglo persons. Medical practice records were reviewed to identify medically diagnosed diabetics. Controls without diabetes were identified by a two-stage random sample of households. Diabetics (n = 343) and controls (n = 607) attended a clinic where an oral glucose tolerance test or current hypoglycemic therapy confirmed or diagnosed non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. The age-adjusted prevalence of confirmed non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was 21/1,000 in Anglo males and 44/1,000 in Hispanic males, accounting for non-response. For Anglo females, the prevalence was 13/1,000 compared with 62/1,000 for Hispanic females, accounting for nonresponse. Previously undiagnosed non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was also higher among Hispanics. There was a 2.1-fold excess of confirmed non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus among Hispanic males and a 4.8-fold excess among Hispanic females, consistent with the excess non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus among Hispanics reported from comparable studies. Non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus is a major chronic disease problem for persons of Hispanic ethnicity. 相似文献

While studies have consistently shown that in the USA, non-Hispanic Blacks (Blacks) have higher diabetes prevalence, complication and death rates than non-Hispanic Whites (Whites), there are no studies that compare disparities in diabetes mortality across the largest US cities. This study presents and compares Black/White age-adjusted diabetes mortality rate ratios (RRs), calculated using national death files and census data, for the 50 most populous US cities. Relationships between city-level diabetes mortality RRs and 12 ecological variables were explored using bivariate correlation analyses. Multivariate analyses were conducted using negative binomial regression to examine how much of the disparity could be explained by these variables. Blacks had statistically significantly higher mortality rates compared to Whites in 39 of the 41 cities included in analyses, with statistically significant rate ratios ranging from 1.57 (95 % CI: 1.33–1.86) in Baltimore to 3.78 (95 % CI: 2.84–5.02) in Washington, DC. Analyses showed that economic inequality was strongly correlated with the diabetes mortality disparity, driven by differences in White poverty levels. This was followed by segregation. Multivariate analyses showed that adjusting for Black/White poverty alone explained 58.5 % of the disparity. Adjusting for Black/White poverty and segregation explained 72.6 % of the disparity. This study emphasizes the role that inequalities in social and economic determinants, rather than for example poverty on its own, play in Black/White diabetes mortality disparities. It also highlights how the magnitude of the disparity and the factors that influence it can vary greatly across cities, underscoring the importance of using local data to identify context specific barriers and develop effective interventions to eliminate health disparities. 相似文献

Interaction between cigarette smoking and diabetes mellitus in the prediction of death attributed to cardiovascular disease 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
Previous studies have shown that the increased risk of cardiovascular disease in adults with diabetes is independent of heart disease risk factors and have suggested that the effect of these risk factors is similar in diabetics compared with nondiabetics. To determine whether there was interaction between diabetes and the classic heart disease risk factors (cholesterol, blood pressure, and cigarette smoking) in the prediction of cardiovascular death, the etiologic fraction due to interaction was assessed in a nine-year follow-up of 2,620 older Caucasian adults (60-79 years) who resided in Rancho Bernardo, California, 8.7% of whom had diabetes by history of fasting hyperglycemia. In these older adults, the frequency of categoric hypertension, hypercholesterolemia, or current cigarette smoking did not differ significantly among diabetics compared with nondiabetics. Overall, the age-adjusted relative cardiovascular mortality risk among diabetics was similar to that in nondiabetics for all risk factors except cigarette smoking, for which the relative risk for diabetics was 2.2 compared with 1.2 for nondiabetics. High cholesterol and systolic blood pressure levels showed no interaction with diabetes, but cigarette smoking had a large and significant interaction with diabetes, such that an estimated 65% of the cardiovascular disease deaths among diabetics could be attributed to the interaction of diabetes and cigarette smoking. If confirmed, these data have important implications for the prevention of cardiovascular death in older diabetics. 相似文献

Mexican Americans are the largest subgroup of Hispanics, the largest minority population in the United States. Stroke is the leading cause of disability and third leading cause of death. The authors compared stroke incidence among Mexican Americans and non-Hispanic Whites in a population-based study. Stroke cases were ascertained in Nueces County, Texas, utilizing concomitant active and passive surveillance. Cases were validated on the basis of source documentation by board-certified neurologists masked to subjects' ethnicity. From January 2000 to December 2002, 2,350 cerebrovascular events occurred. Of the completed strokes, 53% were in Mexican Americans. The crude cumulative incidence was 168/10,000 in Mexican Americans and 136/10,000 in non-Hispanic Whites. Mexican Americans had a higher cumulative incidence for ischemic stroke (ages 45-59 years: risk ratio = 2.04, 95% confidence interval: 1.55, 2.69; ages 60-74 years: risk ratio = 1.58, 95% confidence interval: 1.31, 1.91; ages >or=75 years: risk ratio = 1.12, 95% confidence interval: 0.94, 1.32). Intracerebral hemorrhage was more common in Mexican Americans (age-adjusted risk ratio = 1.63, 95% confidence interval: 1.24, 2.16). The subarachnoid hemorrhage age-adjusted risk ratio was 1.57 (95% confidence interval: 0.86, 2.89). Mexican Americans experience a substantially greater ischemic stroke and intracerebral hemorrhage incidence compared with non-Hispanic Whites. As the Mexican-American population grows and ages, measures to target this population for stroke prevention are critical. 相似文献

PURPOSE: We sought to examine whether prehypertension is associated with increased cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality risk and whether the association of blood pressure with CVD outcome is modified by social demographics or hypertension treatment and control. METHODS: Data from the Third National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey and mortality follow-up through 2000 were used to estimate the relative risk of death from CVD associated with hypertension and prehypertension, after adjusting for confounding and modifying factors. RESULTS: Compared with normotension, the relative risks of CVD mortality were 1.23 (95% confidence interval [95% CI] 0.85-1.79, p=0.26) for prehypertension, 1.64 (95% CI 1.11-2.41, p=0.01) for hypertension, 1.74 (95% CI 1.28-2.49, p=0.007) for uncontrolled hypertension, and 1.15 (95% CI 0.79-1.80, p=0.53) for controlled hypertension. Hypertensive adults <65 years and non-Hispanic blacks had a 3.86-fold and a 4.65-fold increased CVD mortality risk respectively. Age, gender, and race/ethnicity stratified analyses showed no associations between prehypertension and CVD mortality. However, blood pressure at a high range of prehypertension (130-139/84-89 mmHg) was associated with increased risk of CVD mortality (hazard ratio 1.41, p<0.05) relative to blood pressure less than 120/80 mmHg. CONCLUSIONS: This study supports a strong, significant, and independent association of elevated blood pressure with CVD mortality risk. Hypertension continued to greatly increase CVD morality risk, particularly among persons <65 years and non-Hispanic blacks. Treatment and control of hypertension eliminated the excess CVD mortality risk observed among the hypertension population. 相似文献

The risk of renal death is examined in the United States population 15 years of age and older with and without diabetes. The renal mortality rate is 174.6 per 100,000 among people with diabetes and 42.5 per 100,000 among people without diabetes. The relative risk of renal mortality is 4.1 for diabetics, age-adjusted relative risk, 2.6. The risk of renal mortality is highest in young people with diabetes. Rates of renal mortality are higher than previously believed among Whites with diabetes and among women with diabetes. 相似文献

The authors examined the association between waist circumference and mortality among 154,776 men and 90,757 women aged 51-72 years at baseline (1996-1997) in the NIH-AARP Diet and Health Study. Additionally, the combined effects of waist circumference and body mass index (BMI; weight (kg)/height (m)(2)) were examined. All-cause mortality was assessed over 9 years of follow-up (1996-2005). After adjustment for BMI and other covariates, a large waist circumference (fifth quintile vs. second) was associated with an approximately 25% increased mortality risk (men: hazard ratio (HR) = 1.22, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.15, 1.29; women: HR = 1.28, 95% CI: 1.16, 1.41). The waist circumference-mortality association was found in persons with and without prevalent disease, in smokers and nonsmokers, and across different racial/ethnic groups (non-Hispanic Whites, non-Hispanic Blacks, Hispanics, and Asians). Compared with subjects with a combination of normal BMI (18.5-<25) and normal waist circumference, those in the normal-BMI group with a large waist circumference (men: > or =102 cm; women: > or =88 cm) had an approximately 20% higher mortality risk (men: HR = 1.23, 95% CI: 1.08, 1.39; women: HR = 1.22, 95% CI: 1.09, 1.36). The finding that persons with a normal BMI but a large waist circumference had a higher mortality risk in this study suggests that increased waist circumference should be considered a risk factor for mortality, in addition to BMI. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the joint effect of cigarette smoking and alcohol consumption on mortality. METHODS: A population-based cohort of 66,743 Chinese men aged 30-89 in Shanghai, China recruited from 1996 to 2000. Lifestyle data were collected using structured questionnaires. As of November 2004, follow-up for the vital status of 64,515 men was completed and death information was further confirmed through record linkage with the Shanghai Vital Statistics Registry. Associations were evaluated by Cox regression analyses. RESULTS: 2514 deaths (982 from cancers, 776 from cardiovascular diseases (CVD)) were identified during 297,396 person-years of follow-up. Compared to never-smokers, both former and current smokers had significantly elevated mortality from any cause, CVD, and cancer; risk increased with amount of smoking. Intake of 1-7 drinks/week was associated with reduced risk of death, particularly CVD death (hazard ratio (HR): 0.7, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.5, 1.0), whereas intake of >42 drinks/week was related to increased mortality, particularly cancer-related death (HR: 1.7, 95% CI: 1.1, 2.5). The HR for total mortality associated with moderate alcohol consumption increased from 0.8 (95% CI: 0.6, 1.0) for non-smokers to 1.0 (0.9, 1.2) for moderate smokers and 1.4 (95% CI: 1.2, 1.7) for heavy smokers. Heavy drinkers and heavy smokers had the highest mortality (HR: 1.9, 95% CI: 1.6, 2.4). CONCLUSIONS: Light and moderate alcohol consumption reduced mortality from CVD. This beneficial effect, however, was offset by cigarette smoking. 相似文献

BACKGROUND: The association of physical inactivity and elevated body mass index (BMI) with cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk is well established. The relationship of dietary caloric intake and CVD risk is less certain. METHODS: The epidemiologic follow-up of the First National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (1971-1992) was examined to determine the relationship of caloric intake, BMI, and physical activity to CVD mortality. Of 14,407 participants, 9790 subjects aged 25 to 74 years met inclusion criteria. The CVD mortality rate was the outcome. RESULTS: During the 17 years of follow-up, there were 3183 deaths, 1531 of which were due to CVD (9.11/1000 person-years). People with relatively less physical activity, lower caloric intake, and who were overweight (BMI 25 to 29.9 kg/m(2)) and obese (BMI > or =30 kg/m(2)) had a less favorable baseline CVD risk profile than did those who were more active and of normal weight and had greater caloric intake. Age- and race/ethnicity-adjusted CVD mortality rates were highest among those with the least physical activity and lowest caloric intake, and who were overweight or obese. Moreover, subjects of normal weight who exercised most were more likely to have high caloric intake and lower CVD mortality (5.9 vs 14.7 per 1000 person-years, p =0.01) than subjects who were obese and exercised least. In Cox regression analysis, controlling for relevant CVD risk factors, least physical activity was independently associated with increased CVD mortality (hazard ratio=1.32, 95% confidence interval [CI]=1.13-1.53); and obesity was associated with increased CVD mortality (hazard ratio=1.24, 95% CI=1.06-1.44). Although highest dietary caloric intake was associated with reduced CVD mortality (hazard ratio=0.83, 95% CI=0.74-0.93), after adjusting for physical activity and BMI, there was no significant association of highest caloric intake with CVD mortality (hazard ratio=0.91, 95% CI=0.81-1.01). CONCLUSIONS: In this large general population sample, lower levels of physical activity and obesity were independently associated with decreased CVD survival. Moreover, when BMI, physical activity, and other relevant characteristics were taken into account, caloric intake was not related to CVD mortality. 相似文献

The objective of the study reported here was to assess the association between air pollution and daily diabetes mortality in Shanghai. Death records were collected for all individuals who lived in the Zhabei district of Shanghai and died from diabetes from January 1, 2001, to December 31, 2002. The authors used a time-series approach to study the acute effects of air pollution on diabetes mortality after controlling for long-term trends, weather variables, and day of the week. Each increase of 10 microg/m3 in PM10, SO2, or NO2 was found to correspond, respectively, to a 1.006 (95 percent CI: 1.000-1.012), 1.011 (95 percent CI: 0.990-1.032), or 1.013 (95 percent CI: 1.000-1.026) relative risk of diabetes mortality in Shanghai. The air pollutants also were observed to have a greater effect on diabetics than on nondiabetics. These findings provide new evidence for the association between air pollution and diabetes mortality risk, and suggest that diabetics are more susceptible to air pollution than are nondiabetics. 相似文献

PURPOSE: Although personality traits may contribute to risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD), inconsistent findings have prompted efforts to refine their measurement to include only the hostile and aggressive components. Data are sparse on the "social avoidance" (SA) subscale that measures more indirectly negative traits such as shyness. Thus, we sought to examine the association between SA and CVD, coronary heart disease (CHD), and non-CVD death. METHODS: A total of 2107 men (ages 40-55 years) free of baseline CVD were enrolled in 1957 in the Western Electric Study. SA was measured at study entry using the four-item subscale of the Cook-Medley hostility scale to divide the cohort into four groups according to the degree of social avoidance. CHD mortality, CVD mortality, and non-CVD mortality were determined by death certificate. RESULTS: After 30 years of follow-up, SA was associated with CVD mortality for the highest vs. the lowest SA group in age-adjusted models (hazard ratio 1.39; 95% confidence interval [95% CI] 1.04-1.84) and after adjustment for traditional CVD risk factors (hazard ratio 1.49; 95% CI 1.12-2.00). After further adjustment for measures of hostility, the findings were similar. Findings for CHD mortality were similar. However, there was no significant association between SA and non-CVD mortality. CONCLUSIONS: Social avoidance is associated with CVD mortality but not with non-CVD mortality in middle-aged men. These findings suggest the hypothesis that social avoidance might promote CVD through physiologic, non-behavioral mechanisms. 相似文献

BackgroundPrevious dietary studies and current dietary guidelines have mainly focused on dietary intake and food patterns. Little is known about the association between eating behaviors such as meal frequency, skipping and intervals, and mortality.ObjectiveThe objective was to examine the associations of meal frequency, skipping, and intervals with all-cause and cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality.DesignThis was a prospective study.Participants/settingA total of 24,011 adults (aged ≥40 years) who participated in the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey 1999-2014 were included in this study. Eating behaviors were assessed using 24-hour recall. Death and underlying causes of death were ascertained by linkage to death records through December 31, 2015.Main outcome measuresThe outcomes were all-cause and CVD mortality.Statistical analyses performedMultivariable Cox proportional hazards models were used to estimate adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) of all-cause and CVD mortality.ResultsDuring 185,398 person-years of follow-up period, 4,175 deaths occurred, including 878 cardiovascular deaths. Most participants ate three meals per day. Compared with participants eating three meals per day, the multivariable-adjusted HRs for participants eating one meal per day were 1.30 (95% CI 1.03 to 1.64) for all-cause mortality, and 1.83 (95% CI 1.26 to 2.65) for CVD mortality. Participants who skipped breakfast have multivariable-adjusted HRs 1.40 (95% CI 1.09 to 1.78) for CVD mortality compared with those who did not. The multivariable-adjusted HRs for all-cause mortality were 1.12 (95% CI 1.01 to 1.24) for skipping lunch and 1.16 (95% CI 1.02 to 1.32) for skipping dinner compared with those who did not. Among participants eating three meals per day, the multivariable-adjusted HR for participants with an average interval of ≤4.5 hours in two adjacent meals was 1.17 (95% CI 1.04 to 1.32) for all-cause mortality, comparing with those having a meal interval of 4.6 to 5.5 hours.ConclusionsIn this large, prospective study of US adults aged 40 years or older, eating one meal per day was associated with an increased risk of all-cause and CVD mortality. Skipping breakfast was associated with increased risk of CVD mortality, whereas skipping lunch or dinner was associated with increased risk of all-cause mortality. Among participant with three meals per day, a meal interval of ≤4.5 hours in two adjacent meals was associated with higher all-cause mortality. 相似文献

Objectives
Diabetes and obesity each increases mortality, but recent papers have shown that lean Asian persons were at greater risk for mortality than were obese persons. The objective of this study is to determine whether an interaction exists between body mass index (BMI) and diabetes, which can modify the risk of death by cardiovascular disease (CVD).Methods
Subjects who were over 20 years of age, and who had information regarding BMI, past history of diabetes, and fasting blood glucose levels (n=16 048), were selected from the Korea Multi-center Cancer Cohort study participants. By 2008, a total of 1290 participants had died; 251 and 155 had died of CVD and stroke, respectively. The hazard for deaths was calculated with hazard ratio (HR) and 95% confidence interval (95% CI) by Cox proportional hazard model.Results
Compared with the normal population, patients with diabetes were at higher risk for CVD and stroke deaths (HR, 1.84; 95% CI, 1.33 to 2.56; HR, 1.82; 95% CI, 1.20 to 2.76; respectively). Relative to subjects with no diabetes and normal BMI (21 to 22.9 kg/m2), lean subjects with diabetes (BMI <21 kg/m2) had a greater risk for CVD and stroke deaths (HR, 2.83; 95% CI, 1.57 to 5.09; HR, 3.27; 95% CI, 1.58 to 6.76; respectively), while obese subjects with diabetes (BMI ≥25 kg/m2) had no increased death risk (p-interaction <0.05). This pattern was consistent in sub-populations with no incidence of hypertension.Conclusions
This study suggests that diabetes in lean people is more critical to CVD deaths than it is in obese people. 相似文献18.
PurposeTo identify risk factors (RF) for diabetes within a multiethnic cohort and to examine whether race–ethnicity modified their effects.MethodsParticipants in the Northern Manhattan Study without diabetes at baseline were studied from 1993 to 2014 (n = 2430). Weibull regression models with interval censoring data were fit to calculate hazard ratios and 95% confidence intervals for incident diabetes. We tested for interactions between RF and race–ethnicity.ResultsDuring a mean follow-up period of 11 years, there were 449 diagnoses of diabetes. Being non-Hispanic black (HR 1.69 95% CI 1.11–2.59) or Hispanic (HR 2.25 95% CI 1.48–3.40) versus non-Hispanic white, and body mass index (BMI; HR 1.34 per SD 95% CI 1.21–1.49) were associated with greater risk of diabetes; high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HR 0.75 95% CI 0.66–0.86) was protective. There were interactions by race–ethnicity. In stratified models, the effects of BMI, current smoking, and C-reactive protein (CRP) on risk of diabetes differed by race–ethnicity (p for interaction < 0.05). The effects were greater among non-Hispanic whites than non-Hispanic blacks and Hispanics.ConclusionsAlthough Hispanics and non-Hispanic blacks had a greater risk of diabetes than whites, there were variations by race–ethnicity in the association of BMI, smoking, and CRP with risk of diabetes. Unique approaches should be considered to reduce diabetes as traditional RF may not be as influential in minority populations. 相似文献

PurposeThe association between glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), medication use/adherence, and mortality stratified by race/ethnicity was examined in a national cohort of veterans with type 2 diabetes.MethodsA total of 892,223 veterans with diabetes in 2002 were followed through 2006. HbA1c category was the main exposure (i.e., HbA1c <7%, HbA1c 7%–8% [reference], HbA1c 8%–9%, and HbA1c >9%). Covariates included age, sex, marital status, rural/urban residence, geographic region, number of comorbidities, and diabetes medication use/adherence (i.e., adherent, medication possession ratio ≥80%; nonadherent; and nonusers). HbA1c and medication use/adherence varied over time, and Cox regression models accounting for time-varying variables were used.ResultsIn nonmedication users, HbA1c greater than 9% predicted higher mortality risk relative to HbA1c of 7%–8% in non-Hispanic whites (hazard ratio [HR], 1.55; 95% confidence interval [95% CI], 1.43–1.69), non-Hispanic blacks (NHB) (HR, 1.58; 95% CI, 1.34–1.87), and Hispanics (HR, 2.22; 95% CI, 1.75–2.82). In contrast, in nonadherent medication users, HbA1c less than 7% predicted higher mortality risk in NHB (HR, 1.12; 95% CI, 1.05–1.20), whereas HbA1c greater than 9% only predicted mortality in non-Hispanic whites (HR, 1.11; 95% CI, 1.06–1.16). In adherent medication users, HbA1c less than 7% predicted higher mortality in NHB (HR, 1.18; 95% CI, 1.07–1.31), whereas HbA1c greater than 9.0% predicted higher mortality risk across all race/ethnic groups.ConclusionWe found evidence for racial/ethnic differences in the association between glycemic control and mortality, which varied by medication use/adherence. 相似文献

We examined the incidence of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in children 0-17 years of age in Colorado from 1978 to 1988. Cases were ascertained from a statewide registry based on physician surveillance. A total of 1,376 children were diagnosed during this interval in a population averaging 860,000 children. The degree of ascertainment was estimated to be 93.3%. The age-adjusted incidence rate of insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus was 14.8/100,000 person-years. The rate was lower in individuals of Spanish origin (Hispanics) (8.7/100,000 person-years) compared with non-Hispanic individuals (15.5/100,000 person-years) (incidence rate ratio = 0.6, 95% confidence interval = 0.4-0.8). Incidence rates were higher in winter and lower in summer for children 5-17 years old. Children diagnosed before the age of 5 years showed no significant seasonal pattern, although peak incidences were observed in autumn and spring. No temporal trend in diabetes incidence was observed overall or by ethnic group. The increasing insulin-dependent diabetes incidence reported by registries in Europe during this time period was not observed in Colorado. 相似文献
