We sought to estimate the prevalence of obesity and central obesity, and their association with type 2 diabetes mellitus in the Canarian community of Guía.
Population-based study.
A random sample of 691 subjects over 30 y old (stratified by age and sex) was studied. DATA AND MEASURES: Age, sex, family history of diabetes and medication use were obtained, height, weight and waist circumference were measured and standard oral glucose tolerance tests were performed
The prevalences of obesity/central obesity were 36.5%/66.5% (women) and 23.6%/32.0% (men). The prevalence of diabetes was 21.0% (women) and 18.4% (men). These rank among the highest in Europe. Bivariate analyses show a strong association of both obesity and central obesity with diabetes mellitus (P<0.001), but in a multivariate model, waist circumference (P<0.001) but not body mass index (P=0.212) was retained as an independent predictor of diabetes.
The prevalences of obesity, central obesity and diabetes in our community are extremely high, and central obesity is a better predictor of diabetes than obesity.
我们试图估算在瓜伊亚加那利人群体中肥胖症和中心性肥胖症的患病率,以及它们与2型糖尿病的关联。
基于人群的研究。
对691名30岁以上的受试者(按年龄和性别分层)进行随机抽样研究。数据与测量指标:记录年龄、性别、糖尿病家族史和用药情况,测量身高、体重和腰围,并进行标准口服葡萄糖耐量试验。
肥胖症/中心性肥胖症的患病率在女性中为36.5%/66.5%,在男性中为23.6%/32.0%。糖尿病的患病率在女性中为21.0%,在男性中为18.4%。这些患病率在欧洲位居前列。双变量分析显示,肥胖症和中心性肥胖症均与糖尿病有很强的关联(P<0.001),但在多变量模型中,腰围(P<0.001)而非体重指数(P=0.212)被保留为糖尿病的独立预测因子。
我们社区中肥胖症、中心性肥胖症和糖尿病的患病率极高,并且中心性肥胖症比肥胖症是更好的糖尿病预测因子。
