Abstract:
Objective To investigate the prevalence and influencing factors of pre-diabetes among adult residents in Jilin province and to provide a reference for prevention and control of diabetes.
Methods We conducted a cross-sectional survey among 4 168 permanent residents aged ≥18 years selected using multi-stage stratified cluster sampling between June and August 2013. Questionnaire interview, physical examination, and laboratory test were adopted in the study.
Results Among the participants, 1 162 were diagnosed with pre-diabetes, and the prevalence rate of the condition was 27.88%. The results of unconditional logistic regression analysis showed that aged elder than 40 years, hypertension, abdominal obesity, low total cholesterol (TC), high triglyceride (TG), and low high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) were risk factors of pre-diabetes in the participants.
Conclusion The prevalence of pre-diabetes is high among adult residents in Jilin province and the residents at elder age, with hypertension, abdominal obesity, higher total cholesterol and triglyceride, and low high-density lipoprotein cholesterol are the key populations for intervention of pre-diabetes.
