| Abstract | Chronic inflammation is a well-known risk factor for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). The influence of chronic osteomyelitis (COM), an inflammatory disease, on the risk of developing T2DM remains unknown. This study investigated the risk of developing T2DM among COM patients. Using a retrospective cohort study, we identified 20,641 patients with COM and 82,564 age- and sex-matched controls for comparison from the Taiwan National Health Insurance Database (NHIRD) from 1997 to 2010. We followed up the COM cohort and the comparison cohort to compare the incidences of diabetes (ICD-9-CM code 250) until the end of 2010 or until the patients were censored because of death or withdrawal from the insurance program. The diabetes risk was analyzed using the Cox proportional hazards regression model. The incidence of T2DM was 1.6-fold higher in the group of COM patients than in the comparison group (29.1 vs. 18.2 per 10,000 person-years). The COM patients exhibited a higher diabetes risk [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) = 1.64, 95 % confidence interval (CI) = 1.44–1.87] after controlling for the baseline and comorbidities. Younger and higher income patients exhibited a higher COM-to-reference incidence rate ratio (IRR) for T2DM compared with that of their counterparts. We also observed an increased risk of T2DM in COM patients with comorbidities (aHR = 1.70, 95 % CI = 1.47–1.96) compared with that of their non-COM counterparts. This is the first study to report the association between COM and an increased risk of developing T2DM, particularly among younger and higher income patients. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
