To provide 9-year incidence data for type 2 diabetes and hypertension and evaluate the relationship of body mass index (BMI) and waist-hip ratio (WHR) on these comorbidities in an Afro-Caribbean population. A longitudinal, population-based cohort study including 4,631 participants at baseline; 2,793 were reexamined at the 9-year follow-up. Type 2 diabetes was defined by self-reported history and/or GHb measurement; hypertension was defined as systolic blood pressure (BP) ≥140 mmHg and/or diastolic BP ≥90 mmHg and/or use of antihypertensive treatment. Incidence rates were based on persons without such conditions at baseline. The 9-year incidence of hypertension (95% confidence interval) was higher in women [37.5% (34.0, 41.2)] than men [30.6% (26.9, 34.6)], whereas the incidence of diabetes was similar for both genders (14%). Body size was related to both conditions; however, the incidence of hypertension was more strongly associated to WHR, whereas diabetes had a stronger association with BMI. Incidence rates for diabetes and hypertension were high in this cohort and the relationship of BMI and WHR on these co-morbidities was significant. These findings suggest the need to develop tailored interventions and preventive strategies in this Afro-Caribbean and similar high risk populations.
