Although the reported prevalence of diabetes in Sub-Saharan Africa is low (3.8%), approximately 75% of all people with diabetes are unaware they have the disease and therefore receive no treatment (<xref rid="R2" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>). Moreover, the largest proportional increase in prevalence is expected to occur in Sub-Saharan Africa (<xref rid="R1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>). In Uganda, prevalence of diabetes in adults has been estimated at 7.4% in rural areas (<xref rid="R3" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>) and 8.1% in urban areas (<xref rid="R4" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>). This situation challenges a country already heavily burdened with communicable diseases, financial constraints, and limited medical resources for diabetes care (<xref rid="R5" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>,<xref rid="R6" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>).</p><p>Lifestyle-related factors play an important role in the development of T2D (<xref rid="R7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>,<xref rid="R8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>), and studies from both middle- (<xref rid="R9" ref-type="bibr">9</xref>,<xref rid="R10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>) and high-income countries (<xref rid="R11" ref-type="bibr">11</xref>,<xref rid="R12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>) show that T2D can be prevented or delayed through a balanced diet, increased physical activity, and weight loss. However, it remains unclear how this evidence should be translated into effective and feasible population-wide interventions in low-, middle-, and high-income countries.</p><p>In many low-income countries like Uganda, daily life is focused around the family and the household. In households in which 1 member has T2D, that member may affect household knowledge and lifestyle practices and thus influence cardio-metabolic risk for other household members. The genetic inheritance of T2D is clearly established (<xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>,<xref rid="R14" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>), but few studies have examined the effect of household sharing on the risk factors for T2D and related cardio-metabolic conditions of people without T2D (<xref rid="R13" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>,<xref rid="R15" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>–<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>).</p><p>Because the household environment in rural Uganda could be an important factor in either increasing risk or decreasing risk for chronic diseases, we compared the cardio-metabolic risk factors of people without diagnosed diabetes who live in diabetic households with those who live in nondiabetic households.</p></sec><sec sec-type="methods"><title>Methods</title><p>This cross-sectional study comprised 90 households of which half included a person with diagnosed T2D. All households were within the Kagando Hospital catchment area (defined as within a travel time of 15 minutes by walking to 1 hour by vehicle to the hospital). Kagando Hospital is a rural, private, not-for-profit health facility located in Kasese District in southwestern Uganda. The Kasese population is young (57.5% aged 18 years or younger) (<xref rid="R19" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>). Households comprise 1 to 3 generations. The fertility rate is high (7.4%) (<xref rid="R20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>), and polygamy is common. The district is mountainous, and 75.3% of the inhabitants live in rural areas; small-scale farming of cassava, plantain, mango, and cash crops such as coffee is the main occupation (<xref rid="R20" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>). The majority of people live in houses made of mud or sun-dried bricks with an iron sheet roof, no electricity, and no piped water. Kagando Hospital serves a population of 400,000 and operates a weekly diabetes clinic with diabetes education focused on medication, diet, physical activity, and smoking cessation.</p><p>A household was defined as a place where people live together and share food on a daily basis. Households with a resident with diabetes were selected from 354 diabetes patients’ records at the Kagando Hospital diabetes clinic, of which 79 fulfilled the following inclusion criteria at the patient level: the patient had lived with a diagnosis of diabetes for at least 2 years, had attended at least 2 diabetes clinic consultations, and was aged 40 years or older at diagnosis. The inclusion criteria for participation at the household level were that the household contained at least 3 members aged 13 years or older and at least 2 generations (children and parents or children and grandparents) lived in the household. Households were excluded if 1 household member had a diagnosis of HIV/AIDS or type 1 diabetes or had active tuberculosis, severe mental illness, alcoholism, or drug addiction. Six diabetic households did not meet these criteria and were excluded from the study.</p><p>Nondiabetic households were evaluated by the same inclusion and exclusion criteria as diabetic households with the additional requirement that no household member had received a diagnosis of T2D. We used a random sampling plan to select nondiabetic households. To sample a nondiabetic household, we visited the fifth house to the left of a diabetic household, facing the front of the diabetic household. If the visited household included a person within 5 years of age of the person with T2D in the diabetic household and the household overall met our inclusion criteria, the household was invited to participate in the study. If no one in this age range lived in the household or if the household did not fulfill our inclusion criteria, we visited the next house to the left to find out if this household fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The sampling process continued until a nondiabetic household meeting all the criteria was identified.</p><p>Of 100 households invited to participate (45 with a resident with diabetes and 55 without), 90 households with a total of 437 residents agreed to participate (response rate 97.5%). The 45 household residents with diagnosed T2D had attended an average of 21 consultations (range 2–64) at the diabetes clinic over 2 to 9 years, beginning when the hospital began keeping files on the patients at the diabetes clinic. To compare risk factors for cardio-metabolic diseases between households with and without a resident with diagnosed diabetes, the 45 people who already had a diagnosis of diabetes were excluded, yielding a sample of 392 participants without diagnosed diabetes.</p><p>Household members were examined in their own home. Informed written consent was obtained from all participants, and the study was approved by the Uganda National Council of Science and Technology, the Makerere University School of Medicine Research and Ethics Committee, St Francis Hospital Nsambya, and Kagando Hospital.</p><sec><title>Measurements</title><p>Following an overnight fast, hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) was measured with an Afinion AS100 Analyzer (Axis Shield PoC, Norway), and fasting plasma glucose (FPG) (mmol/L) was measured with an Accu-check Aviva glucose meter (Roche Diagnostics, Switzerland). Diabetes was defined as HbA1c ≥6.5% (<xref rid="R21" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>) or FPG ≥7.0 mmol/l (<xref rid="R22" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>), and high risk of diabetes as HbA1c ≥5.7% or FPG ≥6.1 mmol/l.</p><p>Blood pressure (BP) was measured with an Omron M6 HEM7211E (Omron Global, Kyoto, Japan) in sitting position after at least 10 minutes of rest and hypertension was defined as the presence of antihypertensive therapy, or a systolic BP at or above 140 mm Hg, or a diastolic BP at or above 90 mm Hg, averaged over the last 2 blood pressure levels (<xref rid="R23" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>).</p><p>Body weight was measured to the nearest 0.1 kg with the participant wearing light clothes (SECA flat scale model 876, SECA UK), and height was measured to the nearest 0.1 cm (SECA portable stadiometer, model 213, SECA UK). Body mass index (BMI) (weight [kg]/height [m<sup>2</sup>]) was categorized for adults according to the World Health Organization (WHO) classifications (<xref rid="R24" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>) and for adolescents aged from 13 to 19 years according to WHO Child Growth Standards (<xref rid="R25" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>). Overweight and obese individuals were grouped together because of few observations in the obese group (n = 13).</p><p>Waist circumference was measured midway between the iliac crest and the costal margin following a quiet expiration with SECA ergonomic circumference measuring tape 201 (SECA UK) and was used to calculate waist:height ratio (WtHR) (<xref rid="R26" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>). On the nondominant arm, mid–upper-arm circumference was measured with SECA ergonomic circumference measuring tape and used with the triceps brachii skinfold thickness (Harpenden Caliper, model RH15-9-LR, Baty International) to calculate upper-arm fat area (UFA) according to Frisancho (<xref rid="R27" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>). WtHR and UFA were used as continuous variables.</p><p>Aerobic capacity was estimated on the basis of an 8-minute step test with heart rate measurements (Polar RS100) every 30 seconds followed by 2 minutes of rest with heart rate measurements every 15 seconds, and the measurements were managed according to the Cambridge protocol (<xref rid="R28" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>). In data analyses, participants who could not perform or complete at least 4 minutes of the step test were coded as unfit with the exception of those who were pregnant, had recently given birth, or had an acute illness.</p><p>A modified version of the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (<xref rid="R29" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>) was used to assess physical activity level. Socioeconomic status (SES), education, family history of diabetes, and smoking habits were also assessed by questionnaire. A food frequency questionnaire was developed on the basis of observation studies at markets, small shops, cooking sessions in private households, and informal interviews with people in the study setting. This questionnaire determined consumption of cooking oils and the staple foods cassava (root and flour), maize flour, sweet potatoes, potatoes, plantains, sorghum, and rice, all staples that are high-glycemic index foods associated with the development of T2D (<xref rid="R30" ref-type="bibr">30</xref>). A questionnaire capturing knowledge about diabetes was developed on the basis of observational studies conducted at the diabetes clinic at Kagando Hospital. The questionnaire score ranged from −32 to 32, with the maximum indicating all questions were correct.</p><p>All questionnaires were either developed for or adapted to local cultural patterns and were translated into the local language, Lukonjo, and back-translated into English. All questionnaires went through a pilot study to test participants’ understanding, interpretation, and perception of the questions. Trained local assistants and the first author (J.N.) conducted physical examinations, and local assistants conducted all questionnaires.</p></sec><sec><title>Statistical analysis</title><p>Our primary analyses compared the HbA1c; FPG; hypertension; smoking; anthropometric-, diet-, and physical activity-related risk factors; and diabetes-related knowledge of household residents aged 13 years or older in diabetic households who had not previously received a diagnosis of diabetes with those in nondiabetic households.</p><p>Key covariates in the analyses were sex, age, pregnancy, SES, and education. Age was calculated on the basis of date of birth. In cases of unknown birth year, we used a locally developed event calendar with major events in the study setting taking place between 1933 and 2002. The participants were then asked to link their birth year and other major biographic milestones to the events in calendar in order to determine the year of birth.</p><p>A principal component analysis (<xref rid="R31" ref-type="bibr">31</xref>) of employment, land size, housing condition, value of domestic animals, education level of the head of household, and value of household possessions was performed to determine SES at the household level, and all residents within the same household were assigned the same SES.</p><p>A general mixed model was used to model outcome variables as a function of living in a household with a member with diagnosed T2D. Household was used as a random effect to account for within-household clustering. Differences in categorical variables were tested by using ordinal logistic regression adjusted for confounding and clustering at the household level. We also tested for interactions with the main outcome variables and the interaction between household and age and sex, respectively; we grouped residents into 2 age groups (<30 y and ≥30 y). A univariate model was used to test the association between diabetes-related knowledge and different cardio-metabolic risk factors. All continuous variables were transformed in the statistical analyses; means were then back-transformed by using the geometric mean. Thus, results are presented as mean values and interquartile range (25th and 75th percentiles) for households with and without a resident with a diagnosis of diabetes.</p></sec></sec><sec sec-type="results"><title>Results</title><sec><title>Characteristics of participants in diabetic and nondiabetic households</title><p>Overall, SES and educational level were higher in diabetic households than in nondiabetic households (<italic>P</italic> = .001 vs <italic>P</italic> = .003), but no differences in sex or age existed between the 2 types of households (<italic>P</italic> = .27 and <italic>P</italic> = .92). To compare risk factors for cardio-metabolic diseases between diabetic households and nondiabetic households, the 45 persons with diagnosed T2D were excluded, yielding a final sample of 392 participants. Of those without diagnosed diabetes, 27 met the criteria for diabetes, and 131 were at high risk of diabetes. The number of participants with undiagnosed diabetes or at high risk for diabetes did not differ significantly between household types, and their data were not excluded from the further analysis.

These findings were most pronounced among younger people (13– <30 y), where HbA1c was lower in diabetic households. Among older people (30–92.5 y), smoking prevalence was lower in diabetic households. Furthermore, males in diabetic households had lower HbA1c.</p><p>The magnitude of difference in smoking prevalence (11.6 percentage points) is likely to be associated with important differences in risk for diabetes, heart disease, and pulmonary disease (<xref rid="R32" ref-type="bibr">32</xref>). This potential advantage in cardio-metabolic risk profile is further strengthened by the 0.44 mmol/L difference in FPG observed between diabetic and nondiabetic households. A longitudinal study from South Africa found that people progressing from no diabetes to diabetes had FPG 0.30 mmol/L higher than those who did not progress to diabetes (<xref rid="R33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>). On the other hand, the same South African study (<xref rid="R33" ref-type="bibr">33</xref>) found that people progressing from no diabetes to diabetes had HbA1c% 0.30 higherthan those not progressing to diabetes, which is slightly higher than the 0.15 to 0.21 difference in HbA1c% observed among young individuals and males in our study.</p><p>The favorable cardio-metabolic risk factor profile is also consistent with US studies that found greater weight loss and decreased energy intake in untreated spouses of people participating in lifestyle interventions (<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>,<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>). In contrast, another US study found that relatives of a person with T2D were more obese, despite having a higher awareness of diabetes risk factors, than those without a family history of diabetes (<xref rid="R34" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>). However, the relatives in that study (<xref rid="R34" ref-type="bibr">34</xref>) did not share a household and daily life with the person with T2D as in our study and the published intervention studies (<xref rid="R16" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>,<xref rid="R18" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>).</p><p>The higher level of diabetes-related knowledge and education in the diabetic households may play a role in the decreased risk factor levels shown in the present study. However, we observed no association between diabetes-related knowledge and risk factors for cardio-metabolic diseases. Furthermore, including diabetes-related knowledge as a covariate in the analyses of HbA1c, FPG, and smoking did not considerably diminish the difference in these variables between the 2 types of households. The lack of an association between knowledge and improved cardio-metabolic risk factor profile is consistent with an evaluation study by Yoder et al, which found no clear relationship between changes in knowledge and changes in behaviors (<xref rid="R35" ref-type="bibr">35</xref>).</p><p>Thus, it remains possible that habits, behaviors, cooking practices, and social pressure favoring exercise and nonsmoking affect health behaviors in residents of diabetic households without affecting diabetes knowledge per se. Therefore, our results and the existing literature suggest that diabetes-related education or T2D in the family alone are not sufficient to facilitate a change in practice. Instead, it may be the combination of education and sharing daily life that is important. Future studies should examine whether this combination of factors is important in other settings, such as in urban Sub-Saharan Africa or other low-income countries.</p><p>Smoking cessation was also recommended at the diabetes clinic, and 12 of the people with diagnosed T2D reported they were former smokers (results not reported because we excluded people with diagnosed T2D). These people’s smoking cessation may have affected other members of the diabetic household and thereby explains the lower number of smokers in these households.</p><p>Diabetic households had a higher SES, which could have increased the intake of more expensive food items not produced by the household itself, such as cooking oil. However, we found no difference in cooking oil use between the 2 types of households, although 3 diabetic households reported not using oil at all. We observed no effect of SES or education adjustment on the association between type of household and diabetes-related knowledge.</p><p>Our study had some limitations. First, the cross-sectional design prevents confirmation that diabetes status caused the favorable risk factor status in diabetic households, because cardio-metabolic risk factor status before the person’s diabetes diagnosis is unknown. However, given that 1 person in each diabetic household had T2D, it is unlikely that diet was healthier and physical activity levels were higher in diabetic households before the person was diagnosed with diabetes.</p><p>Nutritional data were estimated by using a household-level variable that assumed that everyone aged 13 years or older consumed the same number of servings, which may not be the case. Finally, the people with T2D were selected from a private not-for-profit hospital and had attended a minimum of 2 consultations at the diabetes clinic. Therefore, these people may have higher SES and may not be representative of Ugandans with T2D in general.</p><p>In conclusion, this study found that young residents (13–<30 y) of a diabetic household were at lower risk for cardio-metabolic diseases than their counterparts from nondiabetic households. Furthermore, people aged 30 years or older from diabetic households were not at higher risk than the same age group from nondiabetic households despite their shared daily life, environment, and perhaps even genes with a person with diagnosed T2D. We are not aware of other studies reporting a more favorable cardio-metabolic risk factor profile in residents of diabetic households than those living in a nondiabetic household, whether from Africa or from other parts of the world where diabetes has been much more researched. The results suggest that people benefit from sharing a household with a person with T2D who has received diabetes-related education. The potential cardio-metabolic benefits may occur as unintended spill-over effects. Thus, diabetic households may be a potential avenue for primary prevention of T2D in countries with limited resources for addressing the increasing burden of diabetes. Further research needs to focus on exploiting the potential of the household — both households with and without a chronic disease — for health promotion in general and prevention of cardio-metabolic diseases specifically.</p></sec></body><back><ack><title>Acknowledgments</title><p>Dr. Nielsen’s PhD fellowship was partly funded by Novo Nordisk Fonden (grant no. 29847).
