Key result
Higher T2DM prevalence is linked to increased hypertension cases across South Sulawesi districts.
Why the study?
The spatial variation of type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension and their potential linkage had not been explored in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia.
Observational (n=3,093)
Effect estimate: Coefficient 0.005
p-value: p=< 0.001
There is a significant spatial relationship between type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension in South Sulawesi, Indonesia, which can inform public health planning and interventions.
Association may support regional cardiometabolic surveillance; leaves open causality and applicability to individual-level interventions.
The spatial variation of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and hypertension and their potential linkage were explored in South Sulawesi Province, Indonesia. The Global Moran's I and regression analysis were utilized to identify the characteristics involved. The methods were performed based on T2DM and hypertension data from 2017 and 2018 acquired from Social Health Insurance Administration in Indonesia. The spatial variation of T2DM and hypertension showed that the prevalence rate of T2DM and hypertension tends to occur randomly (p = 0.678, p = 0.711, respectively). By utilizing Generalized Poisson Regression Analysis, our study showed a significant relationship between T2DM and hypertension (p ≤ 0.001). This research could help policy makers to plan and support projects with the aim of overcoming the risk of T2DM and hypertension.

Zainuddin et al. (2023) conducted an observational in Type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension (n=3,093). Type 2 diabetes mellitus was evaluated on Number of hypertension cases (Coefficient 0.005, p=< 0.001). The prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus had a significant positive relationship with the number of hypertension cases (coefficient 0.005, p < 0.001) across 24 districts in South Sulawesi, Indonesia.
