In Asia, diabetes-associated death due to cardiorenal diseases were 2-3 times higher in women than men which might be due to gender disparity in quality of care and health habits.
Adults with type 2 diabetes (T2D) from 11 Asian countries/areas were assessed using the same protocol (2007-2015). We compared treatment target attainment (HbA < 7%, blood pressure [BP] < 130/80 mmHg, risk-based LDL-cholesterol, lack of central obesity [waist circumference <90 cm in men or <80 cm in women), use of cardiorenal-protective drugs (renin-angiotensin system [RAS] inhibitors, statins), and self-reported health habits including self-monitoring blood glucose (SMBG) by gender. Analyses were stratified by countries/areas, age of natural menopause (<50 ≥50 years), and comorbidities (atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease [ASCVD], heart failure, kidney impairment [eGFR < 60 mL/min/1.73 m]).
Among 106,376 patients (53.2% men; median (interquartile range) diabetes duration: 6.0 (2.0-12.0) years; mean ± SD HbA 8.0 ± 1.9%; 27% insulin-treated), women were older and less likely to receive college education than men (28.9% 48.8%). Women were less likely to smoke/drink alcohol and were physically less active than men. Women had lower BP (<130/80 mmHg: 29.4% 25.7%), less general obesity (54.8% 57.8%) but more central obesity than men (77.5% 57.3%). Women were less likely to have ASCVD (12.8% 17.0%) or heart failure (1.3% 2.3%), but more likely to have kidney impairment (22.3% 17.6%) and any-site cancer than men (2.5% 1.6%). In most countries/areas, more men attained HbA <7% and risk-based LDL-cholesterol level than women. After adjusting for potential confounders including countries and centres, men had 1.63 odds ratio (95% CI 1.51, 1.74) of attaining ≥3 treatment targets than women.
Asian women with T2D had worse quality of care than men especially in middle-income countries/areas, calling for targeted implementation programs to close these care gaps.

在亚洲,女性因心肾疾病导致的糖尿病相关死亡人数比男性高2至3倍,这可能是由于护理质量和健康习惯方面的性别差异所致。
采用相同方案(2007 - 2015年)对来自11个亚洲国家/地区的成年2型糖尿病(T2D)患者进行评估。我们比较了治疗目标达成情况(糖化血红蛋白<7%、血压[BP]<130/80 mmHg、基于风险的低密度脂蛋白胆固醇、无中心性肥胖[男性腰围<90 cm或女性腰围<80 cm])、心肾保护药物(肾素 - 血管紧张素系统[RAS]抑制剂、他汀类药物)的使用情况以及自我报告的健康习惯,包括按性别划分的自我血糖监测(SMBG)。分析按国家/地区、自然绝经年龄(<50岁与≥50岁)以及合并症(动脉粥样硬化性心血管疾病[ASCVD]、心力衰竭、肾功能损害[eGFR<60 mL/min/1.73 m²])进行分层。
在106376例患者中(53.2%为男性;糖尿病病程中位数(四分位间距):6.0(2.0 - 12.0)年;糖化血红蛋白均值±标准差8.0±1.9%;27%接受胰岛素治疗),女性比男性年龄更大,接受大学教育的可能性更低(分别为28.9%和48.8%)。女性吸烟/饮酒的可能性较低,身体活动也比男性少。女性血压较低(<130/80 mmHg:29.4%与25.7%),总体肥胖较少(54.8%与57.8%),但中心性肥胖比男性更多(77.5%与57.3%)。女性患ASCVD(12.8%与17.0%)或心力衰竭(1.3%与2.3%)的可能性较小,但患肾功能损害(22.3%与17.6%)和任何部位癌症的可能性比男性更高(2.5%与1.6%)。在大多数国家/地区,达到糖化血红蛋白<7%和基于风险的低密度脂蛋白胆固醇水平的男性比女性更多。在调整包括国家和中心等潜在混杂因素后,男性达到≥3个治疗目标的优势比为1.63(95%CI 1.51,1.74),高于女性。
亚洲T2D女性的护理质量比男性差,尤其是在中等收入国家/地区,需要有针对性的实施计划来缩小这些护理差距。
