To assess the relationship between housing stability and type 2 diabetes outcomes using electronic health records.
Cohort study utilizing electronic health records from US health centers (2016-2023).
Analyzed 90,233 individuals, adjusting for socioeconomic and demographic factors.
Evaluated primary outcome of mean hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) and secondary outcomes including blood pressure and LDL cholesterol.
Stable housing was associated with 0.12% lower HbA1c (95% CI, -0.16% to -0.07%; P < .001).
Systolic BP was 0.77 mm Hg lower (95% CI, -1.14 to -0.39; P < .001) and diastolic BP 0.27 mm Hg lower (95% CI, -0.49 to -0.06; P = .01).
No significant reduction in LDL cholesterol was observed (estimated difference -1.46 mg/dL, P = .05).
