ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
A prospective study about the association between serum ferritin concentration and diabetes mellitus showed that higher risk of diabetes was found in men in higher concentration of serum ferritin. The aims of this study is to examine the association between serum ferritin concentration and the risk of diabetes mellitus in healthy Korean in hospital-based samples.METHODS:
In a volunterred healthy population(n=14,782), who underwent health examination in Samsung Medical Center, from January to December 1997, serum ferritin and glucose were determined.RESULTS:
After adjusting for age, BMI, serum triglyceride concentration, and multiple logistic regression analysis showed that those in the highest quartile had increased risk of diabetes mellitus (OR men 2.26(95% CI 2.41-2.95, p=0.0001), women 3.03(95% CI 2.51-3.67, p=0.0001), compared with those in the lowest quartile.CONCLUSION:
In studied population, elevated serum ferrtin concentration was associated with an increaed risk of diabetes.
