Blood glucose of 2 h after oral administration of 75 g glucose (2 h BG) was measured. WHO criteria were used for the diagnosis of NIDDMand IGT. Meanwhile epidemiological data were collected. Blood pressure, height, weight, waist and hip girths were measured. The crude prevalence was found to be 5. 82% (men 4.62%,woman 6. 69%) for NIDDM, 5. 87% (men 5. 30%, women 6. 29% ) for IGT and 14. 72% (men 16. 50%, women 13. 43 % ) for hypertension in the population obove 20 years of age. Age-adjusted prevalence was 4. 63% for NIDDM, 5. 07 % for IGT and 11. 19% for hypertension. Age increase (>40 years), obesity (BMI≥27) and central fat distribution (WHR≥0.88) were the risk factors for both diabetes and hypertension. The subjects≥40 years of age and obesity were the high risk population of NIDDM, IGT and hypertension. They were the target population for theprevention and treatment of diabetes and hypertension in the community level. High prevalences of NIDDM,IGT and hypertension were observed in the community population in Jiangsu province. To reinforce the prevention and treatment of these disorders in the province is imperative.展开更多
