BACKGROUND Diabetes is a progressive disease that increases glucose levels in the blood.While studies have shown that patients with pulmonary disease(both obstructive and restrictive pulmonary disease)have a higher prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),there have been more studies on restrictive patterns than chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.AIM To assess whether restrictive and obstructive pulmonary diseases are associated with T2DM in Koreans.METHODS For our analysis,we used data from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.A total of 2830 subjects were included in this study.Spirometry results were categorized into three patterns:Normal,restrictive pulmonary disease(RPD),and obstructive pulmonary disease(OPD).RESULTS The factors used as diabetic indicators(i.e.homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance,homeostatic model assessment of beta-cell function,glycated hemoglobin,and fasting insulin)were among the highest in RPD but not in OPD.Based on multivariate logistic regression analysis,subjects with RPD were found with an increased odds ratio[OR:1.907,95%confidence interval(CI):1.110-3.277]for T2DM compared with subjects with normal pulmonary function,whereas in patients with OPD,the OR had not increased.Model 4,which adjusted for the variables that could affect diabetes and pulmonary disease,showed a significant increase in the T2DM OR to RPD(OR:2.025,95%CI:1.264-3.244).On the other hand,no statistically significant difference was shown in OPD(OR:0.982,95%CI:0.634-1.519).CONCLUSION RPD,not OPD,is highly associated with T2DM regardless of the risk factors of various T2DMs that can be confounds.
