Pediatric Primary Care 1. False. Proximity to the patient is also an important factor. A general surgeon practicing in a small town might be the best person to handle a suspected case of appendicitis, for example. 2. False. Although some third party payors have standards written into their contracts with physicians, and the American Academy of Pediatrics has created a standard, not all pediatricians adhere to these standards. 3. True. Many factors are involved, including the training of the primary care pediatrician and past experience with similar cases. 4.d 5.e Chapter I.2. Growth Monitoring 1. BMI (kg/m 2) = weight in kilograms divided by the square of the height in meters. 2. First 18 months of life. 3. a) If the child's weight is below the 5th percentile, or b) if weight drops more than two major percentile lines. 4. 85th percentile. 5. 30 grams, or 1 oz per day. 6. At 5 years of age. Those who rebound before 5 years have a higher risk of obesity in childhood and adulthood.

  • Prevalence and Determinants of Diabetes and Prediabetes In
    Hariri et al. BMC Endocrine Disorders (2021) 21:135 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12902-021-00790-x RESEARCH Open Access Prevalence and determinants of diabetes and prediabetes in southwestern Iran: the Khuzestan comprehensive health study (KCHS) Sanam Hariri1†, Zahra Rahimi2†, Nahid Hashemi-Madani3, Seyyed Ali Mard4, Farnaz Hashemi1, Zahra Mohammadi1, Leila Danehchin5, Farhad Abolnezhadian6,7, Aliasghar Valipour8, Yousef Paridar9, Mohammad Mahdi Mir-Nasseri10, Alireza Khajavi11, Sahar Masoudi1, Saba Alvand1, Bahman Cheraghian12, Ali Akbar Shayesteh13, Mohammad E. Khamseh3* and Hossein Poustchi1* Background: The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is postulated to have the highest increase in the prevalence of diabetes by 2030; however, studies on the epidemiology of diabetes are rather limited across the region, including in Iran. Methods: This study was conducted between 2016 and 2018 among Iranian adults aged 20 to 65 years residing in Khuzestan province, southwestern Iran. Diabetes was defined as the fasting blood glucose (FBG) level of 126 mg/dl or higher, and/or taking antidiabetic medications, and/or self-declared diabetes. Prediabetes was defined as FBG 100 to 125 mg/dl. Multinomial logistic regression models were used to examine the association of multiple risk factors that attained significance on the outcome. Results: Overall, 30,498 participants were recruited; the mean (±SD) age was 41.6 (±11.9) years. The prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes were 30.8 and 15.3%, respectively. We found a similar prevalence of diabetes in both sexes, although it was higher among illiterates, urban residents, married people, and smokers. Participants aged 50– 65 and those with Body Mass Index (BMI) 30 kg/m2 or higher were more likely to be affected by diabetes [RR: 20.5 (18.1,23.3) and 3.2 (3.0,3.6)].

Methods: We conducted a population-based, cross-sectional survey in GanSu province of northwest China. A representative sample of 31417 adults, aged 20-74 years, from 14 regions participated in the study. After an overnight fast, a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) 75 g glucose load was conducted among participants without a self-reported history of diagnosed diabetes. Questionnaire survey, physical examination and serum lipid level were also conducted in the study. Results: The rough prevalence of diabetes in adults in Gansu province of northwest China was 10.6% (12.3% among men and 9.2% among women) and the age-standardized prevalence of diabetes is 9.0%.

  • Impact of Genetic Factors on the Age of Onset for Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus in Addition to the Conventional Risk Factors

The onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus results from a complex interplay between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle risk factors. Our study aims to evaluate the joint effect of T2DM associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the age of onset for T2DM in combination with conventional risk factors (such as sex, body mass index (BMI), and TG/HDL-C ratio) in the Hungarian population. This study includes 881 T2DM patients (Case population) and 1415 samples from the Hungarian general population (HG). Twenty-three SNPs were tested on how they are associated with the age of onset for T2DM in the Case population and 12 of them with a certified effect on the age of T2DM onset were chosen for an optimized genetic risk score (GRS) analysis.
