The contribution of maternal glucose to birth weight is smaller in Uganda (sub-Saharan Africa) than in Afro-Caribbean or white ethnicity mother–child pairs from outside Africa
INTRODUCTION: Glucose is a major determinant of fetal growth, but its relative contribution in different ethnic groups or populations is not fully understood. The Hyperglycaemia and Adverse Pregnancy Outcome (HAPO) Study established a relationship between glucose and birth weight in multiple ethnic groups. However, the HAPO Study did not include any cohorts from sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), where 17% of the world population lives. This study aims to…
Waist circumference and glycaemia are strong predictors of progression to diabetes in individuals with prediabetes in sub-Saharan Africa
Sub-Saharan Africa is projected to have the highest increase in the number of people with diabetes worldwide. However, the drivers of diabetes in this region have not been clearly elucidated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the incidence of diabetes and the predictors of progression in a population-based cohort with impaired fasting glucose (IFG) in Malawi. We used data from an extensive rural and urban non-communicable disease survey. One …

Development of a brief, reliable and valid diet assessment tool for impaired glucose tolerance and diabetes
Objective Dietary advice is fundamental in the prevention and management of type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Advice is improved by individual assessment but existing methods are time-consuming and require expertise. We developed a twenty-five-item questionnaire, the UK Diabetes and Diet Questionnaire (UKDDQ), for quick assessment of an individual’s diet. The present study examined the UKDDQ’s repeatability and relative validity compared with 4 d food diar…
Cooperative and Competitive Relationships Between Leaders and Subordinates
It has been argued that leadership research questionnaires should be based upon a theoretical position that has considerable experimental support for its causal relationships. This study drew upon the experimentally supported theory of cooperation and competition to develop measures of three different kinds of leader orientation: cooperative, competitive, and individualistic. These measures were used by 310 medical laboratory technicians from 10 …
