摘要

背景:古巴裔美国人的2型糖尿病患病率很高，这使他们面临心血管疾病(CVD)的风险，并增加了医疗费用。古巴裔美国人的生活方式对心血管疾病的危险因素知之甚少。本研究调查了患有和不患有2型糖尿病的古巴裔美国人可改变的心血管疾病危险因素。方法:收集和评估n=79和n=80患有和不患有2型糖尿病的古巴裔美国人的社会人口统计学、人体测量学、血压、体力活动、饮食摄入和生化参数。结果:14%的糖尿病患者和24%的非糖尿病患者参加了推荐水平的体育活动。超过90%的人摄入的饱和脂肪超过了建议的摄入量。35%的人曾经或现在是吸烟者。讨论:古巴裔美国人有几种可能增加心血管疾病风险的生活方式因素。他们的饮食因素与血胆固醇和体重有关，这已被证明会影响医疗费用。这些发现可能用于设计古巴裔美国人预防心血管疾病和2型糖尿病的方案。

Do dietary factors contribute to medical cost for Cuban Americans with and without type 2 diabetes?

Background: Cuban Americans have a high prevalence of type 2 diabetes, placing them at risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and increased medical costs. Little is known regarding the lifestyle risk factors of CVD among Cuban Americans. This study investigated modifiable CVD risk factors of Cuban Americans with and without type 2 diabetes.

Methods: Sociodemographics, anthropometrics, blood pressure, physical activity, dietary intake, and biochemical parameters were collected and assessed for n=79 and n=80 Cuban Americans with and without type 2 diabetes.

Results: Fourteen percent with diabetes and 24 percent without diabetes engaged in the recommended level of physical activity. Over 90 percent had over the recommended intake of saturated fats. Thirty-five percent were former or current smokers.

Discussion: Cuban Americans had several lifestyle factors that are likely to increase the risk of CVD. Their dietary factors were associated with blood cholesterol and body weight, which has been shown to impact on medical expenses. These findings may be used for designing programs for the prevention of CVD as well as type 2 diabetes for Cuban Americans.
