dc.description.abstract | There is evidence indicating the ingestion of arsenic may predispose the development of diabetes mellitus in arsenic-endemic areas in Taiwan. However, the prevalence of diabetes and related vascular diseases in the entire southwestern arseniasis-endemic and nonendemic areas remains to be elucidated. We used the National Health Insurance Database for 1999-2000 to derive the prevalence of non-insulin-dependent diabetes and related vascular diseases by age and sex among residents in southwestern arseniasis-endemic and nonedemic areas in Taiwan. The study included 66,667 residents living in endemic areas and 639,667 in nonedemic areas, all ? 25 years of age. The status of diabetes and vascular diseases was ascertained through disease diagnosis and treatment prescription included in the reimbursement claims of clinics and hospitals. The prevalence of non-insulin-dependent diabetes, age- and and gender-adjusted to the general population in Taiwan, was 7.5% (95% confidence interval, 7.4-7.7%) in the arsenisis-endemic areas and 3.5% (3.5-3.6%) in the nonendemic areas. Among both diabetics and nondiabetes, higher prevalence of microvascular and macrovascular diseases was observed in arseniasis-endemic than in the nonedemic areas. Age- and gender-adjusted prevalence of microvascular disease in endemic and nonedemic areas was 20.0% and 6.0%, respectively, for diabetic, and 8.6% and 1.0%, respectively. for diabetics, and 12.3% and 5.5% for nondiabetics. Arsenic has been suggested to increase the risk of non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and its related micro- and macrovascular diseases. | - |
