Plasma Proteomic Markers of Iron and Risk of Diabetes in a Cohort of African American and White American Current and Former Smokers.

Background: Little information is available on iron with diabetes risk among African Americans, a population where both anemia and elevated ferritin are common. We tested whether plasma proteomic measurements of ferritin and transferrin were associated with increased diabetes risk in a cohort of current and former African American (NHB) and Non-Hispanic White (NHW) smokers.

Methods: NHB and NHW participants from the COPDGene study who were free of diabetes (n = 4693) at baseline were followed for incident diabetes.
