ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the prevalence and risk factors of impaired glucose regulation (IGF) in health check-up populations in Tianjin.Methods A total of10126 individuals were assigned to group according the1999 World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for diabetes mellitus ( DM ).Clinical characteristics and the prevalence of DM were compared between the groups. Student's t test,Chi-square test and logistic regression were used for data analysis.Results The incidence of IGR was much higher in male than in female (x3 =136.2,P ＜0.05).Abnormal glucose metabolism showed an increasing trend with age ( P＜0.05 ).In logistic regression analysis,age,male,family history of DM,overweight/obesity,hypertension,hypertriglyceridemia and hyperuricemia were risk factors of IGR.Conclusion Age,male,overweight/obesity,family history of DM,hypertension,hypertriglyceridemia and hyperuricemia could be risk factors of IGR.Early screening and intervention may help to prevent the development of DM.
