Worldwide trends in diabetes since 1980
BACKGROUND: One of the global targets for non-communicable diseases is to halt, by 2025, the rise in the age-standardised adult prevalence of diabetes at its 2010 levels. We aimed to estimate worldwide trends in diabetes, how likely it is for countries to achieve the global target, and how changes in prevalence, together with population growth and ageing, are affecting the number of adults with diabetes. METHODS: We pooled data from population-ba…
PS38 Sarcopenic Obesity and Risk of All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Older Men
Background Sarcopenic obesity refers to the age-associated loss of muscle mass coupled with high adiposity levels. Although it is known that both obesity and low muscle mass are associated with increased mortality, few studies to date have examined the combined effects of sarcopenia and obesity on all-cause or cardiovascular mortality. We examined the relationship between sarcopenic obesity and all-cause and cardiovascular mortality in older men.…
OP86 More Rapid Decline in CHD Incidence among Scottish Towns than among English towns from the 1980S to the 2000s
Background The incidence of coronary heart disease (CHD) has declined in the UK since the late 1970s. However, regional differences in this decline are unknown. We investigate the change in CHD incidence from the period 1980–1988 to 2000–2008 according to UK region. We also examine regional differences in changes in established coronary risk factors over these periods Methods The British Regional Heart Study recruited 7735 men between 1978 and 19…
OP16 How is Objectively Measured Physical Activity Associated with Falls and fear of Falling in Older Community Dwelling Men
Background Falls are a major cause of disability in older age and fear of falling (FOF) may limit physical activity. Associations between falls, fear of falling and objectively measured physical activity (PA) has been little studied, particularly in community-dwelling older adults. Methods The study sample was men participating in a prospective, population-based cohort study in 24 British towns provided questionnaire information on a history of f…
