Qatar’s immigrants at higher risk of diabetes by Nature Research (16552612)

“…Because T2D is often associated with obesity, one might predict that the Arab participants, who had, on average, markedly higher body mass index (BMI) and waist circumference measures than the others, would exhibit high levels of glycated haemoglobin. The results, however, suggest that Qatar’s immigrant population has a significantly increased risk of having undiagnosed T2D, and that glycated haemoglobin levels could be a useful diagnostic tool for early detection of the disease. …”
