To determine the prevalence of pre-diabetes and diabetes and its associated risk factors in adult population.
The cross-sectional population-based study was conducted from January to March 2018 in urban and rural areas of Swat, Pakistan, and comprised subjects aged 20-89 years. After a minimum 10-hour overnight fast, blood glucose was tested for pre-diabetes and diabetes according to the World Health Organization recommendations. Data was analysed using SPSS 21.
Of the 1447 subjects, 837 (58%) were females and 610 (42%) males. The largest age group was 20-29 years with 322 (22.3) subjects. Pre-diabetes was found in 309 (21.4%) subjects and diabetes in 138 (9.52%). Higher age, urbanisation, family history of diabetes, weight, exercise, hypertension, monthly income and education were found to be significant risk factors for pre-diabetes and diabetes (p<0.05).
Every 10th resident of Swat was found to have diabetes, and every one in five had pre-diabetes.

本横断面基于人群的研究于 2018 年 1 月至 3 月在巴基斯坦斯瓦特的城乡地区进行,纳入年龄在 20-89 岁的研究对象。受试者禁食至少 10 小时后,根据世界卫生组织的建议检测血糖以确定糖尿病前期和糖尿病。使用 SPSS 21 进行数据分析。
在 1447 名研究对象中,837 名(58%)为女性,610 名(42%)为男性。最大的年龄组是 20-29 岁,有 322 名(22.3%)研究对象。309 名(21.4%)研究对象存在糖尿病前期,138 名(9.52%)存在糖尿病。较高的年龄、城市化、糖尿病家族史、体重、运动、高血压、月收入和教育程度被发现是糖尿病前期和糖尿病的显著危险因素(p<0.05)。
斯瓦特每 10 个居民中就有 1 人患有糖尿病,每 5 人就有 1 人患有糖尿病前期。
