This study aimed to describe the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and combinations of multiple chronic conditions (MCCs) that are leading causes of death (LCD) and confirm that disparities exist between groups based on race and sex.
We conducted a retrospective cohort study using 2012 Medicare claims data from beneficiaries with type 2 diabetes over the age of 65 in the state of Michigan.
Female beneficiaries have type 2 diabetes and 1 or more MCCs that are LCD more often than males. Most type 2 diabetes patients have diabetes alone without MCCs, while a large proportion have at least 1 additional chronic condition that is a LCD. One in 3 patients have 3 or more chronic conditions. The most prevalent type 2 diabetes coexisting MCCs are congestive heart failure (CHF), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and chronic kidney disease. Asian/Pacific Islanders have the highest prevalence of type 2 diabetes without MCCs, and the highest prevalence of diabetes plus CHF. While fewer black beneficiaries have diabetes alone or 1 additional MCC, the prevalence of 3 or more MCCs in blacks generally exceeds the prevalence in other races. In beneficiaries with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and CHF are the first new chronic conditions to be diagnosed after an initial type 2 diabetes diagnosis.
Race and sex disparities occur in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes and MCCs that are LCD in Medicare beneficiaries in the state of Michigan.
本研究旨在描述密歇根州 65 岁以上患有 2 型糖尿病的医疗保险受益人群中 2 型糖尿病的患病率和多种合并慢性病(MCC),这些 MCC 是主要的死亡原因(LCD),并确认基于种族和性别的差异确实存在。
我们对密歇根州的医疗保险受益人进行了回顾性队列研究,研究对象为年龄在 65 岁以上患有 2 型糖尿病的患者。
女性受益人群患有 2 型糖尿病和 1 种或更多的 LCD 合并症的比例高于男性。大多数 2 型糖尿病患者仅患有糖尿病而没有合并症,而很大一部分患者至少有 1 种其他的慢性疾病,这些慢性疾病是 LCD。每 3 个患者中就有 3 个或更多的慢性疾病。最常见的 2 型糖尿病共存的 MCC 是充血性心力衰竭(CHF)、慢性阻塞性肺疾病和慢性肾脏病。亚裔/太平洋岛民患有无 MCC 的 2 型糖尿病的比例最高,且患有糖尿病加 CHF 的比例最高。虽然黑人受益人群中仅患有糖尿病或 1 种其他合并症的比例较低,但黑人中 3 种或更多合并症的患病率通常高于其他种族。在新诊断为 2 型糖尿病的受益人群中,慢性阻塞性肺疾病和 CHF 是继初始 2 型糖尿病诊断后首次诊断出的新的慢性疾病。
在密歇根州的医疗保险受益人群中,2 型糖尿病和 MCC 的患病率存在种族和性别差异,这些 MCC 是 Medicare 的主要死亡原因。
