Burden of diabetes attributable to dietary cadmium exposure in adolescents and adults in China.

ABSTRACT: At present, the health risk assessment of cadmium exposure has become a major focus of environmental health research. However, there is still a lack of systematic research on the burden of diabetes (DM) attributable to dietary cadmium exposure in adolescents and adults in China. Using the top-down method, the blood cadmium level (B-Cd) of Chinese adolescents and adults from 2001 to 2023 was combined with the relative risk (RR) of cadmium-induced diabetes to calculate the population attribution score (PAF). Subsequently, PAF was used to assess the disease burden (DB) of diabetes caused by cadmium exposure, expressed in disability adjusted life years (DALYs), and attribution analysis was carried out for cadmium exposure from different sources. The average blood cadmium concentration in Chine
