Population-based county-level estimates for prevalence of DC were obtained from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) for the years 2004-2012 (16). DC prevalence rate was defined as the propor-tion of people within a county who had previously been diagnosed with diabetes (high fasting plasma glu-cose 126 mg/dL, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) of 6.5%, or diabetes diagnosis) but do not currently have high fasting plasma glucose or HbA1c for the period 2004-2012. DC prevalence estimates were calculated using a two-stage approach. The first stage used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to predict high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels (≥126 mg/dL) and/or HbA1C levels (≥6.5% [48 mmol/mol]) based on self-reported demographic and behavioral characteristics (16). This model was then applied to Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data to impute high FPG and/or HbA1C status for each BRFSS respondent (16). The second stage used the imputed BRFSS data to fit a series of small area models, which were used to predict county-level prevalence of diabetes-related outcomes, including DC (16). The EQI was constructed for 2006-2010 for all US counties and is composed of five domains (air, water, built, land, and sociodemographic), each composed of variables to represent the environmental quality of that _domain. Domain-specific EQIs were developed using principal components analysis (PCA) to reduce these variables within each _domain while the overall EQI was constructed from a second PCA from these individual domains (L. C. Messer et al., 2014). To account for differences in environment across rural and urban counties, the overall and _domain-specific EQIs were stratified by rural urban continuum codes (RUCCs) (U.S. Department of Agriculture, 2015). Results are reported as prevalence rate differences (PRD) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs) comparing the highest quintile/worst environmental quality to the lowest quintile/best environmental quality expo-sure metrics. PRDs are representative of the entire period of interest, 2004-2012. Due to availability of DC data and covariate data, not all counties were captured, however, the majority, 3134 of 3142 were utilized in the analysis.

Population-based county-level estimates for diagnosed (DDP), undiagnosed (UDP), and total diabetes prevalence (TDP) were acquired from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) for the years 2004-2012 (Evaluation 2017). Prevalence estimates were calculated using a two-stage approach. The first stage used National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) data to predict high fasting plasma glucose (FPG) levels (≥126 mg/dL) and/or hemoglobin A1C (HbA1C) levels (≥6.5% [48 mmol/mol]) based on self-reported demographic and behavioral characteristics (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). This model was then applied to Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) data to impute high FPG and/or A1C status for each BRFSS respondent (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). The second stage used the imputed BRFSS data to fit a series of small area models, which were used to predict the county-level prevalence of each of the diabetes-related outcomes (Dwyer-Lindgren, Mackenbach et al. 2016). Diagnosed diabetes was defined as the proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who reported a previous diabetes diagnosis, represented as an age-standardized prevalence percentage. Undiagnosed diabetes was defined as proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who have a high FPG or HbA1C but did not report a previous diagnosis of diabetes. Total diabetes was defined as the proportion of adults (age 20+ years) who reported a previous diabetes diagnosis and/or had a high FPG/HbA1C. The age-standardized diabetes prevalence (%) was used as the outcome. The EQI was constructed for 2000-2005 for all US counties and is composed of five domains (air, water, built, land, and sociodemographic), each composed of variables to represent the environmental quality of that domain. Domain-specific EQIs were developed using principal components analysis (PCA) to reduce these variables within each domain while the overall EQI was constructed from a second PCA from these individual domains (L.

Diabetic retinopathy is the leading cause of blindness in the working-age population of the developed world. It is estimated to affect over 93 million people.

retina

The US Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 29.1 million people in the US have diabetes and the World Health Organization estimates that 347 million people have the disease worldwide. Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) is an eye disease associated with long-standing diabetes. Around 40% to 45% of Americans with diabetes have some stage of the disease. Progression to vision impairment can be slowed or averted if DR is detected in time, however this can be difficult as the disease often shows few symptoms until it is too late to provide effective treatment.

Currently, detecting DR is a time-consuming and manual process that requires a trained clinician to examine and evaluate digital color fundus photographs of the retina. By the time human readers submit their reviews, often a day or two later, the delayed results lead to lost follow up, miscommunication, and delayed treatment.

Clinicians can identify DR by the presence of lesions associated with the vascular abnormalities caused by the disease. While this approach is effective, its resource demands are high. The expertise and equipment required are often lacking in areas where the rate of diabetes in local populations is high and DR detection is most needed. As the number of individuals with diabetes continues to grow, the infrastructure needed to prevent blindness due to DR will become even more insufficient.

The need for a comprehensive and automated method of DR screening has long been recognized, and previous efforts have made good progress using image classification, pattern recognition, and machine learning. With color fundus photography as input, the goal of this competition is to push an automated detection system to the limit of what is possible – ideally resulting in models with realistic clinical potential. The winning models will be open sourced to maximize the impact such a model can have on improving DR detection.

Background: Arab Americans are a historically understudied minority group in the United States and their health needs and risks have been poorly documented. We aim to provide an updated comprehensive review of the literature on Arab American physical and mental health and provide suggestions for future work in this field.Methods: A comprehensive review of the English language medical and public health literature published prior to 2017 identified through multiple database searches was conducted with search terms describing Arab Americans and health outcomes and behaviors. The literature was qualitatively summarized by health behavior (vaccination, tobacco use, drug and alcohol use, and physical activity), health outcome (diabetes, mental health, cardiovascular disease, cancer, women's, and child health), and populations at increased risk of poor health outcomes (adolescents and the elderly).Results: The majority of studies identified exploring Arab American health have been published since 2009 with an increase in the number of longitudinal and intervention studies done with this population. The majority of research is being undertaken among individuals living in ethnic enclaves due to the lack of an ethnic or racial identifier that may help identify Arab Americans from population-based studies. Studies highlight the conflicting evidence in the prevalence of diabetes and cardiovascular disease based on study sample, an increased understanding of cancer incidence and barriers to identification, and an increased level of knowledge regarding mental health and sexual health needs in the population. Information on health behaviors has also increased, with a better understanding of physical activity, alcohol and drug use, and vaccination.Conclusion: More research on Arab American health is needed to identify risks and needs of this marginalized population given the current social and political climate in the United States, especially with regard to acculturation status and immigrant generation status. We provide recommendations on approaches that may help improve our understanding of Arab American health.

BackgroundCancer and diabetes are among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Several studies have reported diabetes as a risk factor for developing cancer, a relationship that may be explained by associated factors shared with both diseases such as age, sex, body weight, smoking, and alcohol consumption. Social factors referred to as social determinants of health (SDOH) were shown to be associated with the risk of developing cancer and diabetes. Despite that diabetes and social factors were identified as significant determinants of cancer, no studies examined their combined effect on the risk of developing cancer. In this study, we aim at filling this gap in the literature by triangulating the association between diabetes, indices of SDOH, and the risk of developing cancer.MethodsWe have conducted a quantitative study using data from the Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS), whereby information was collected nationally from residents in the United States (US) with respect to their health-related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and the use of preventive services. Data analysis using weighted regressions was conducted on 389,158 study participants.ResultsOur findings indicated that diabetes is a risk factor that increases the likelihood of cancer by 13% (OR 1.13; 95%CI: 1.05–1.21). People of White race had higher odds for cancer compared to African Americans (OR 0.44; 95%CI: 0.39–0.49), Asians (OR 0.27; 95%CI: 0.20–0.38), and other races (OR 0.56; 95%CI: 0.46–0.69). The indices of SDOH that were positively associated with having cancer encompassed unemployment (OR 1.78; 95%CI: 1.59–1.99), retirement (OR 1.54; 95%CI: 1.43–1.67), higher income levels with ORs ranging between 1.16–1.38, college education (OR 1.10; 95%CI: 1.02–1.18), college graduates (OR 1.31; 95%CI: 1.21–1.40), and healthcare coverage (OR 1.44; 95%CI: 1.22–1.71). On the other hand, the indices of SDOH that were protective against having cancer were comprised of renting a home (OR 0.86; 95%CI: 0.79–0.93) and never married (OR 0.73; 95%CI: 0.65–0.81).ConclusionThis study offers a novel social dimension for the association between diabetes and cancer that could guide setting strategies for addressing social inequities in disease prevention and access to healthcare.

Data for cities, communities, and City of Los Angeles Council Districts were generated using a small area estimation method which combined the survey data with population benchmark data (2022 population estimates for Los Angeles County) and neighborhood characteristics data (e.g., U.S. Census Bureau, 2017-2021 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates). The current Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans is issued by the US Department of Health and Human Services. To meet physical activity guidelines, adults must meet aerobic physical activity guidelines (vigorous activity for at least 75 minutes a week, or moderate activity for at least 150 minutes a week, or a combination of vigorous and moderate activity for at least 150 minutes a week) and muscle-strengthening physical activity guidelines (exercise all major muscle groups on 2 or more days a week).Physical inactivity contributes to our current obesity epidemic and is a major risk factor for heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and many other chronic health conditions. It can be difficult for people to be physically active if their communities do not have available and safe places for recreation.For more information about the Community Health Profiles Data Initiative, please see the initiative homepage.

Abstract (en): Overview: The goal of the project was to develop a unique database linking chronic disease clinical data from an electronic medical record (EMR) of a large academic healthcare system to multi-payer claims data. The longitudinal relational database can be used to study clinical effectiveness of many diagnostic and treatment interventions. The population of patients used consisted of those patients who were attributed to the University of Michigan Health System (UMHS) as continuing care patients, who are also in adjudicated and validated chronic disease registries. Data Access: These data are not available from ICPSR. The data are restricted to use by the principal investigator and cannot be shared. This project concerned AHRQ priority populations, including low income and uninsured patients, older adult patients, and patients with diabetes. The population of patients used consisted of those patients who were attributed to the UMHS as continuing care patients, who were also in adjudicated and validated chronic disease registries. These registries organize EMR diagnostic and management information for patients with physician adjudicated chronic disease diagnoses. Complete claims are available for most of the relevant patient population. Funding insitution(s): United States Department of Health and Human Services.

Data for cities, communities, and City of Los Angeles Council Districts were generated using a small area estimation method which combined the survey data with population benchmark data (2022 population estimates for Los Angeles County) and neighborhood characteristics data (e.g., U.S. Census Bureau, 2017-2021 American Community Survey 5-Year Estimates). Data for this indicator are based on self-reported height and weight. Body Mass Index (BMI) is calculated by dividing a person’s weight in kilograms by the square of their height in meters. Individuals with a BMI ≥ 30 are considered to have obesity. Note, while BMI can be helpful in screening for individuals with obesity or overweight, it does not measure how much body fat an individual has or provide any diagnostic information about their overall health.Obesity is associated with increased risk for heart disease, diabetes, and cancer. Cities and communities can help curb the current obesity epidemic by adopting policies that support healthy food retail and physical activity and improve access to preventive care services.For more information about the Community Health Profiles Data Initiative, please see the initiative homepage.

This map was developed by the University of New Mexico Prevention Research Center in partnership with the Step Into Cuba Alliance and New Mexico Community Data Collaborative. For more information about this map, please contact Andrea Cantarero (arcantarero@unm.edu).The map displays annual death rates per 100,000 population (age-adjusted) due to chronic disease over the 13 year period from 1999 to 2011. Rates are displayed overall as well as for each race/ethnicity and by sex, for all 109 NM Small Area geographies. Death rates are explored in context of the Village of Cuba proposal to increase access to the Continental Divide Trail to better serve the local community as well as the broader Hwy 550 Corridor population.NEW MEXICO STATE AVERAGESRate per 100,000 of Diabetes Deaths: 30.2Rate per 100,000 of Diabetes Deaths, Hispanic: 42.2Rate per 100,000 of Diabetes Deaths, White: 20.3Rate per 100,000 of Diabetes Deaths, Native American: 73.6Rate per 100,000 of Diabetes Deaths, African American: 47.8Rate per 100,000 of Diabetes Deaths, Asian or Pacific Islander: 23.2Diabetes deaths were defined as Diabetes mellitus (ICD10: E10-E14).Data Sources: New Mexico Death Certificate Database, Office of Vital Records and Statistics, New Mexico Department of Health; Population Estimates: University of New Mexico, Geospatial and Population Studies (GPS) Program, http://bber.unm.edu/bber_research_demPop.html.
