Trends in the Prevalence of Type 2 Diabetes Among Royal Thai Army Personnel and Associated Factors From 2017 to 2021

Abstract: Background: Diabetes is one of the essential noncommunicable diseases associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis and cardiovascular diseases. However, limited information is available regarding type 2 diabetes (T2D) among Royal Thai Army (RTA) personnel. Objectives: The present study aimed to determine the prevalence of T2D among RTA personnel and its associated factors. Methods: We carried out a serial cross-sectional study from 2017 to 2021. A total of 235,491 active-duty RTA personnel … Show more

“…(8) At the same time, current tobacco use prevalence among Thai women was 2.6% and 2.8% in the NHES V and VI. (7,8) Recent studies in Thailand unveiled that active-duty Royal Thai Army (RTA) personnel faced a high risk for CVD (9,10) , especially metabolic risk factors, such as high blood pressure (BP) (11) , hyperglycemia (12) , high total cholesterol (TC) (13) , and hypertriglyceridemia. (14) Furthermore, RTA personnel have seen a noticeable increase in the predicted 10-year CVD risk from 2017 to 2021.…”
