In DM Belt versus non-DM Belt
% of excess
DM Belt vs. non-DM Belt DM risk
Models Controlled covariates OR (95 %CI) accounted for
M1 Base model: Age, sex 1.221 (1.17–1.27)
M2 M1 + Race/ethnicity 1.209 (1.16–1.26) 5.43
M3 M2 + Urban 1.204 (1.15–1.26) 7.69
M4 M3 + SES 1.174 (1.12–1.23) 21.27
M5 M4 + lifestyle related 1.137 (1.08–1.20) 38.01
M6 M5 + HTC and HTN 1.098 (1.04–1.16) 55.66

SES: Socioeconomic status, measured by Insurance, education, annual house-hold income. Lifestyle: BMI, smoking, vegetables and fruit intake, and physical activity. HTC: Hypercholesterinemia. HTN: Hypertension % of the excess diabetes risk in DM Belt vs. non-DM Belt, was accounted for by controlling covariates using SAS survey logistic regression model.
