Non-linear relationship between pulse pressure and the risk of pre-diabetes: a secondary retrospective Chinese cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

Previous research has shown that pulse pressure (PP) has a significant role in the start and development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. However, there is little proof that PP and pre-diabetes mellitus (Pre-DM) are related. Our study aimed to investigate the relationship between PP and incident pre-DM in a substantial cohort of Chinese participants.

Design

The 'DATADRYAD' database (www.Datadryad.org) was used to retrieve the data for this secondary retrospective cohort analysis.

Participants

Data from 182 672 Chinese individuals who participated in the medical examination programme were recorded in this retrospective cohort study between 2010 and 2016 across 32 sites and 11 cities in China.

Setting

PP assessed at baseline and incident pre-DM during follo
