Five hundred and five subjects retired for medical reasons in 1987. Two hundred and ninety-nine were male and 206 female. Thirty (5.94 per cent) subjects had diabetes of whom 4 were insulin-treated. Twelve of these subjects retired because of diabetes and diabetic complications; 10 retired because of the former and other pathology and 8 retired because of other pathology but had diabetes incidentally at the time of assessment. The expected prevalence of diabetes in the 20-69-year-old group from recent population studies is 9.2-10.1/1000 population. The figure of 59.4/1000 is significantly greater than this. Excluding those who had diabetes incidentally at the time of assessment reduces this figure to 43.6/1000 which still remains significant. After age-standardization the results remain significant. Morbidity from diabetes as assessed by numbers of retirements with diabetes indicates that this is greater than expected.
1987年，505名受试者因健康原因退休。其中男性299名，女性206名。30名（5.94%）受试者患有糖尿病，其中4名接受胰岛素治疗。这些受试者中有12人因糖尿病及糖尿病并发症退休；10人因糖尿病及其他疾病退休；8人因其他疾病退休，但在评估时偶然发现患有糖尿病。根据近期人群研究，20至69岁人群中糖尿病的预期患病率为每1000人9.2至10.1例。59.4/1000这一数字显著高于预期。排除评估时偶然发现患有糖尿病的人后，这一数字降至43.6/1000，但仍具有显著性。年龄标准化后，结果仍然具有显著性。通过因糖尿病退休人数评估的糖尿病发病率表明，这一发病率高于预期。
