Prior investigations of the relationships between religious denomination and diabetes and obesity do not consider the nuance within black faith traditions. This study used data from the National Survey of American Life (n = 4344) to identify denominational and religious attendance differences in obesity and diabetes among black Christian men and women. Key findings indicated that black Catholics and Presbyterians had lower odds of diabetes than Baptists. Black men that attended church almost daily were nearly twice as likely to be obese than those that never attend services. These results indicate that denomination and gender should inform faith-based and placed health promotion approaches.
先前有关宗教教派与糖尿病和肥胖之间关系的研究并未考虑到黑人信仰传统中的细微差别。本研究使用了来自美国生活全国调查（n=4344）的数据，以确定黑人基督教男女中肥胖和糖尿病的教派和宗教参与差异。主要发现表明，与浸礼会相比，黑人天主教徒和长老会教徒患糖尿病的几率较低。几乎每天都去教堂的黑人男性肥胖的可能性几乎是从不参加礼拜的人的两倍。这些结果表明，教派和性别应该为基于信仰和场所的健康促进方法提供信息。
