Article Synopsis
- * Data from a long-term study were analyzed, revealing that while higher relative HGS was linked to lower odds of developing diabetes in both elderly men and women, these findings were not statistically significant.
- * Key predictors of new-onset diabetes included age, BMI, household income, and lifestyle factors, suggesting that overweight and obesity play a crucial role in diabetes risk among older adults.
Although different gender associations between self-rated health (SRH) and mortality have been reported, the results of the respective studies have been inconsistent and little is known about the cause-specific relation of mortality with SRH by gender. Therefore, to evaluate the gender differences in all-cause or specific causes of mortality by SRH, this retrospective cohort study was conducted using the data of 19,770 Korean adults aged 50 years and over who underwent health screening at Seoul National University Hospital between March 1995 and December 2008. SRH was surveyed using a simple questionnaire, and the all-cause mortality and cause-specific mortality were followed up from baseline screening until December 31, 2016.
