Prevalence of diabetes mellitus and associated risk factors in kindergarten and school personnel in Zagreb, Croatia

Diabetes mellitus is one of the major global public health problems. Despite the importance of education from the earliest age, data on the prevalence of diabetes and related risk factors in kindergarten and school personnel are limited. The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of diabetes and its main risk factors in kindergarten and school personnel in Zagreb, Croatia. The study included 7, 908 subjects from 95 kindergartens, 118 elementary schools and 58 high schools. Diabetes was present in 8.34% of men and 3.48% of women, but only half of patients were diagnosed (47% of women and 54% of men). Additionally, 12.64% of men and 6.77% of women were found to have impaired fasting glucose. Logistic regression revealed that older age, male sex, higher body mass index, physical inactivity, high school employment in contrast to kindergarten employment and positive family history of diabetes were significant predictors of diabetes status (p<0.001). Diabetes mellitus is commonly unrecognized in Zagreb, Croatia, even in the population that is supposed to support health promotion and diabetes prevention among children. In order to improve their quality of life and try to influence effectiveness of health education, wider inclusion of that population in screening programs might be reconsidered.
