Creatinine to Body Weight Ratio Is Associated with Incident Diabetes: Population-Based Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT: We investigated the association between creatinine to body weight (Cre/BW) ratio and incident diabetes. In this cohort study, 9659 men and 7417 women were follow up mean (SD) 5.6 (3.5) years and 5.4 (3.4) years, respectively. For men, tertile 1 (T1; n = 3176), Cre/BW < 0.01275; tertile 2 (T2; n = 3258), 0.01275 ≤ Cre/BW < 0.0148; and tertile 3 (T3; n = 3225), Cre/BW ≥ 0.0148; and for women, T1 (n = 2,437), Cre/BMI < 0.0118; T2 (n = 2,516), 0.0118 ≤ Cre/BMI < 0.014; and T3 (n = 2477), Cre/BMI ≥ 0.014. Among them, 362 men and 102 women developed diabetes. The hazard ratios (HRs) of incident diabetes in the T2 group was 0.56 (95% CI 0.44-0.71, p < 0.001) in men and 0.61 (0.38-0.99, p = 0.045) in women and in the T3 group was 0.42 (0.32-0.54, p < 0.001) in men and 0.55 (0.34-0.89, p = 0.014) i
