Factors Influencing the Pedigree Function of Gestational Diabetes in Pima Indian Women
Keywords:
Body mass index (BMI), Diabetes pedigree function (DPF), Gamma model, Joint generalized linear models (JGLMs), Likelihood functionAbstract
Objectives
Diabetes pedigree function (DPF) calculates diabetes likelihood depending on the subject’s age and his/her diabetic family history. Very little is known about the determinants of DPF for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and normal women. The article focuses on the determinants of DPF for GDM and normal (non-diabetes) women.
Results
It has been derived that mean DPF is directly linked to age (p=0.0334), subject’s type (p=0.0006), triceps skin-fold thickness (TSFT) (p=0.0083), insulin level (p=0.0032), the joint interaction effect of body mass index (BMI) and glucose level (BMI×Glucose) (p=0.0624), while it is inversely linked to pregnancy’s number (p=0.0217), glucose level (p=0.0724) and BMI (p=0.1173). Moreover, the variance of DPF is partially inversely linked to pregnancy’s number (p=0.1159) and directly to the joint interaction effect of diastolic blood pressure (DBP) and pregnancy’s number (i.e., DBP×pregnancy’s number) (p=0.1304).
Conclusion
It concludes that DPF is not only based on age and subject’s diabetic family history, while it depends on many factors as stated above.
So, for computing DPF, the above factors should be included in it.
