White cell count trajectory and type 2 diabetes in health management population: a retrospective cohort study.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The purposes of current research were to investigate the time-dependent dynamic alteration of white cell count (WCC) in health management populations and to analyse its association with the type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).

Design

Retrospective cohort research.

Setting

Shengjing Hospital of China Medical University in China's Shenyang.

Participants

The number of non-diabetic subjects (median age: 40 years) totaled 7924 in the present work.

Primary and secondary outcome measures

Assessment and grouping of changes in WCC between 2016 and 2019 were accomplished through group-based trajectory modelling. Newly diagnosed incidence associated with T2DM was estimated based on varying trajectories of WCC by the Kaplan-Meier method. Statistical difference
