TABLE 3.
Diabetes Population Risk Tool (DPoRT) risk estimates and inequity across income quintiles and household education levels for Canada 2017/18 to 2027/28, before and after an intervention that results in a 5% relative risk reduction (Canada. 2017/18).
| Income quintile | Baseline | After intervention c | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Target population group: 2 | Target population group: 3 | Target population group: 4 | ||
| Lowest (1) | 10.5% | 10.5% | 10.5% | 10.0% |
| Low-middle (2) | 10.6% | 10.6% | 10.5% | 10.1% |
| Middle (3) | 10.0% | 9.9% | 10.1% | 9.8% |
| High-middle (4) | 9.7% | 9.5% | 9.7% | 9.5% |
| Highest (5) | 8.7% | 8.5% | 8.7% | 8.5% |
| Inequity Q5−Q1 (absolute) a | 1.8% | 2.0% | 1.8% | 1.5% |
| Inequity (relative) b | 17.0 | 19.0 | 17.1 | 15.0 |
| Household education | ||||
| Less than secondary (1) | 15.2% | 15.2% | 15.2% | 14.5% |
| Secondary graduation (2) | 11.5% | 11.5% | 11.4% | 10.9% |
| Post-secondary (3) | 8.6% | 8.4% | 8.5% | 8.3% |
| Inequity 1–3 (absolute) a | 6.6% | 6.8% | 6.7% | 6.2% |
| Inequity (relative) b | 43.4 | 44.7 | 44.1 | 42.8 |
a
Absolute inequity: risk difference between the most and least disadvantaged groups.
b
Relative inequity: risk difference between the most and least disadvantaged groups, divided by the risk of the most disadvantaged group.
c
Interventions were applied to population group 2 (at least one high-risk factor in lifestyle domain), group 3 (at least one high-risk factor in socioeconomic/structural domain), or group 4 (at least one high-risk factor in both lifestyle and socioeconomic/structural domains).
