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…
The phenotype of type 1 diabetes in sub-Saharan Africa
The phenotype of type 1 diabetes in Africa, especially sub-Saharan Africa, is poorly understood. Most previously conducted studies have suggested that type 1 diabetes may have a different phenotype from the classical form of the disease described in western literature. Making an accurate diagnosis of type 1 diabetes in Africa is challenging, given the predominance of atypical diabetes forms and limited resources. The peak age of onset of type 1 d…
Associations between low HDL, sex and cardiovascular risk markers are substantially different in sub-Saharan Africa and the UK: Analysis of four population studies
INTRODUCTION: Low high-density lipoprotein (HDL) is widely used as a marker of cardiovascular disease risk, although this relationship is not causal and is likely mediated through associations with other risk factors. Low HDL is extremely common in sub-Saharan African populations, and this has often been interpreted to indicate that these populations will have increased cardiovascular risk. We aimed to determine whether the association between HD…
