Significant Difference

Previous longitudinal studies have demonstrated that blood pressure measurements at home (HBP) in the wakening- up display stronger predictive power for death, and vascular complications in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) than clinic blood pressure measurements (CBP). The leading cause of death was cancer. Patients with T2DM have associated with cancer, and high CBP is a risk factor for cancer. Therefore, this study investigated whether HBP or CBP is related to cancer event in patients with T2DM for 10 years. At baseline, 400 Japanese patients with T2DM were classified as hypertensive (HT) or normotensive (NT) based on HBP and CBP. Mean (± SD) duration was 95 ± 35 months. Primary and secondary endpoints were death and cancer, respectively. Differences in outcome between HT and NT were analyzed using survival curves from Kaplan-Meier analysis and log-rank testing. Associated risk factors were assessed using Cox proportional hazards. On basis of HBP, death and event of cancer were significantly higher in HT than in NT. The leading cause of death was cancer. On basis of CBP, there was no significant difference in the incidence of death and event of cancer between patients with HT and NT at baseline. Associated risk factor for cancer was T2DM. Home morning HT may be reflected more keenly state of cancer than clinic HT, which may be superior to clinic NT. When we meet with such patients, it is important that cancer may be one of many causes for morning HT in Japanese patients with T2DM.

Objective: This study aims to analyze the blood cadmium level and prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus in the general population and explore the correlation between blood cadmium levels and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods: From February to December 2017, a multistage, random cluster sampling method was adopted to conduct this cross-sectional epidemiological survey of permanent residents aged >18 years in Nanchang, Jiangxi province (including one urban area, Changdong district and one county, Jinxing county). Blood cadmium levels and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes in the population were analyzed, and the correlation between blood cadmium levels and the incidence of type 2 diabetes was analyzed. Results: The average blood cadmium content of the population in Nanchang (Changdong town, Jinxian county) was 2.91 ± 0.08 ug/L, and the prevalence of type 2 diabetes was 9.2%. The average blood cadmium content of the population in Jinxian county was higher than that of the population of the Changdong district. The results of multivariate regression analysis indicate that high blood cadmium levels are a risk factor for type 2 diabetes. Conclusions: Elevated levels of cadmium in human blood may be a risk factor for type 2 diabetes.
