Mortality trends in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in a primary care setting 1994 to 2011 Jelske Dekkers 6th yearmedical student
Introduction • Research question • Patients and methods • Results • Sociodemographiccharacteristics • Mortalityrates • Clinicalpatientcharacteristics • Survival analysis • Conclusion • Discussion • References
Introduction – Diabetes mellitus • Diabetes mellitus • Type 1 • Type 2 90% • Prevalence • 2003: • Men 36/1000 • Women 39/1000 • 2007 • Men 40.1/1000 • Women 41.6/1000
Introduction – Type 2 diabetes • Causes • Betaceldysfunction inadequate production of insulin • Insulinresistance • Associations • Hypertension • ObesityMetabolic syndrome or syndrome X • Hypercholesteromia • Complications • Cardiovascular disease 2-4 timesincreased risk of CVD associated death • Renal disease • Retinal disease • Polyneuropathy
Research question • What is the trend in mortalityrates of type 2 diabetes patientscompared to the mortalityrates of the general Dutch populationfrom 1994 to 2011? • Is there a difference in clinicalcharacteristics of type 2 diabetes patientsfrom 1994 to 2011?
Patients and methods • All type 2 diabetes patients in the NMP/HIS database between 1994 and 2011 • NMP/HIS database • Database of all patientswithchronicillnessestreated (partially) in 9 primary care practices • Includesclinicalpatientscharacteristicsfromevery check up
Patients Patientswith type 2 diabetes (partially) treated in primary care, 1994-2011 N = 3748 Patientswith type 2 diabetes, nottreated in primary care N = 297 Patientswith type 2 diabetes N = 4045 Patients without a known date of diagnosis N = 31 Patientswith type 2 diabetes with a known date of diagnosis N = 4014
Methods – Mortalityrates • Mortalityrates type 2 diabetes patientsforeachyear • All patients • Men • Women • Comparisongroup: general Dutch population, adjustedforage, using CBS Statline Database • Complete population • Men • Women
Methods – Clinicalpatientcharacteristics • Bloodpressure • Body mass index • HbA1c • Total cholesterol • HDL • Calculatedfor 1996, 2001, 2006 and 2011 • Clinicalcharacteristics of the patients in the NMP/HIS database onlypatients (partially) treated in primary care
Conclusion • Mortalityratesdeclinedbetween 1994 and 2011 • Since 2000 there is nodifference in mortality • In 2010 diabeticwomen had a lowermortalityrate • The meanbloodpressure and cholesterollevel have decreasedsignificantlyfrom 1996 to 2011 • In ourstudypopulation 50% of all type 2 diabeticswouldstillbealive 20 yearsafter diagnosis • The first 20 yearsafter diagnosis women have a better survival probabilitythan men • After 20 years, men have a better survival
Discussion • Strengths • Large NMP/HIS database withsociodemographic and clinicalpatientcharacteristics of the majority of ourstudypopulation • Comparisongroup: complete Dutch population • Weaknesses • No clinicalpatientcharacteristics of patientswhoweren’ttreated in primary care possibleunderestimation of clinicalcharacteristics • Transsitionfrom NMP to HIS as primarysource of information in 2006-2008 voids in yearly check ups and information • Second hand information • Only all causemortality, noinformationaboutcardiovascular associated deaths
Discussion • Other studies onthis subject • Mortalityrates of type 2 diabetes patients are declining • Relativemortality risk compared to controlgroup is declining • Most studies stillfound a signifantdifferencebetweenmortalityrates of diabetics and non-diabetics • Greaterstudypopulation • Earlierperiod • Otherhealth care systems • Follow up study • Correlationbetweendecliningmortalityrates and decliningbloodpressure and cholesterol • Clinicalcharacteristics of all type 2 diabetes patients, includingthose of patientsnottreated in primary care
