目标/假设。我们的目的是根据年龄和性别评估加拿大糖尿病的危险因素，并建议预防和控制策略。这项研究基于加拿大1996年至1997年的全国人口健康调查，该调查涉及69494名12岁及以上的参与者。分析糖尿病患病率与年龄、性别、体重指数、显性体重状况、能量消耗、体力活动、吸烟、饮酒、收入、婚姻状况、受教育程度和城乡居民的关系。在男性和女性中，糖尿病的患病率随着年龄和体重指数的增加而增加，并且与能量消耗成反比。现在和以前的吸烟者与糖尿病的高患病率有关。在经常饮酒或曾经饮酒的人中没有观察到任何影响。糖尿病患病率与收入成反比，尤其是在女性中。年龄在35岁到之间的单身女性的糖尿病患病率高于同龄已婚女性。未发现糖尿病患病率与教育水平有关。未发现城乡户口对糖尿病患病率有影响。所有年龄段的女性和男性都应将体重指数分别保持在25公斤/米(2)和27公斤/米(2)以下，以避免超重。他们应该保持适度的体力活动水平。糖尿病患者应该彻底戒烟。糖尿病预防和控制战略应针对低收入群体中的妇女。
Aims/hypothesis. We aimed to assess the risk factors for diabetes mellitus, by age and sex in Canada and to recommend prevention and control strategies.Methods. This study was based on the Canadian 1996-1997 National Population Health Survey which comprised 69494 participants aged 12 years and over. The prevalence of diabetes mellitus was analysed in relation to age, sex, body mass index, overt weight status, energy expenditure, physical activity, smoking, drinking, income, marital status, education and rural or urban residence.Results. The prevalence of diabetes increased with age and body mass index and increased inversely with energy expenditure in both males and females. Current and former smokers were associated with a higher prevalence of diabetes. No effect was observed in regular or former drinkers. Prevalence of diabetes increased inversely with income, especially among women. Women who were single and 35 to 64 years old had a higher prevalence of diabetes than women of the same age who were married. The prevalence of diabetes was not found to be related to the level of education. Urban or rural residence was not found to have an effect on the prevalence of diabetes.Conclusion/interpretation. Women and men of all ages should avoid becoming overweight, by maintaining their body mass index below 25 kg/m(2) and 27 kg/m(2), respectively. They should maintain a moderate level of physical activity. Patients with diabetes should give up smoking completely. Diabetes prevention and control strategies should be targeted for women in low income groups.
