Abstract

The objective of the current study is to investigate the prevalence of undiagnosed dysglycemia and the risk for type 2 diabetes using the FINDRISC questionnaire in adult population in Beni-Suef Governorate. 500 subjects who are aged above 20 years and who are not known diabetics, who are not known on steroids and hormonal therapy and  have not  renal impairment. More than half of the studied population (52.8%) had low to moderate risk to developing type 2 DM, with no statistically significant difference between males and females regarding the total FINDRISC score. Total FINDRISC score was moderately positive correlated with patient's age in years with a person correlation coefficient 0.648 and p-value <0.001. Total FINDRISC score was moderately positive correlated with patient's BMI with a person correlation coefficient 0.648 and p-value <0.001. Total FINDRISC score was strongly positive correlated with blood glucose tests (FBS, 2hPP and Hb A1C) with a person correlation coefficient >0.7 and p-value <0.001.
