We determined which sociodemographic, socioeconomic, and clinical factors were associated with diabetes screening in the American Diabetes Association's (ADA) recommended screening groups for Asian Americans. Subjects and methods: We included Asian Americans from the 2015 and 2017 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System who fit the ADA's diabetes screening guidelines and responded to a diabetes screening question. Logistic regression models were created to examine associations between sociodemographic, socioeconomic, and clinical factors and diabetes screening in Asian Americans. Results: Being a college graduate and having high blood pressure were associated with higher levels of diabetes screening for the two screening groups. A trend of decreased diabetes screening with less educational attainment was observed in both screening groups. Conclusion: Diabetes screening in Asian Americans is influenced by socioeconomic and clinical factors. Additional work is needed to identify other Asian American-specific cultural factors that may have an impact on the decision to seek diabetes screening. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: N holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
