3. Incidence
The epidemiology of diabetes in elderly people is not well
understood.
The estimated annual incidence of diabetes was 8.6 cases
per thousand for elderly Canadians.
Incidence decreased with age, from 9.5 for subjects 65–
74 years of age, to 7.9 for those 75–84 years of age and
then to 3.1 for those 85 years of age and older.
Diabetes was associated with death (relative risk 1.87,
95% confidence interval 1.59–2.19) and admission to an
institution (relative risk 1.58, 95% confidence interval
1.28–1.94).
