Identification of Risk Factors for Type II Diabetes in Almadinah Almunawara, The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

چکیده
The goal of this study is to identify the risk factors of type II diabetes (T2D) in Al Madinah in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Data were collected from the Primary Health Care Center (PHCC) of Al Madinah, KSA, from 2009 to 2014. The data are grouped or summarized, where the patients have different types of diabetes. The dependent variable is the type of T2D, and the independent variables (risk factors) are age (145+ years), gender (male and female), and nationality (Saudis and non-Saudis). A multinomial logit model is used since the response, a nominal categorical variable, has four levels measured on nominal scale: ‘diabetes during pregnancy & delivery’, ‘diabetes with other complications’, ‘diabetes without complications’, and ‘acetone diabetes’. The results from the fit of multinomial logit model show that all predictors are statistically significant (p> 0.05).
