Association of ideal cardiovascular health metrics and incident type 2 diabetes mellitus among an urban population of Iran: One decade follow up in the Tehran Lipid and Glucose Study.

ABSTRACT:

Aims/introduction

To evaluate the association between ideal cardiovascular health metrics (ICVHM) and incident type 2 diabetes mellitus among Iranian men and women.

Materials and methods

The study population included 7,488 Iranian adults aged ≥20 years (4,236 women) free from diabetes at baseline. The ICVHM was defined according to the American Heart Association's 2020 impact goals. The multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression analysis was used to calculate the hazard ratios (HRs) for ICVHM both as continuous and categorical variables.

Results

Over the median of 9.1 years of follow-up, we identified 922 new cases of type 2 diabetes mellitus (526 women). Body mass index <30 kg/m² , untreated systolic/diastolic blood pressure <120/80 mmHg in both sex
