Abstract
Introduction: The incidence of blood glucose spikes is reported not to be high in young people in their 20s in Japan, but the incidence of blood sugar spikes in their twenties are increasing since 1995. Objective To explore the complex developmental factors predicting blood sugar spikes in adolescents. METHODS: The effects of developmental factors predicting blood sugar spikes in their twenties were analyzed by a retrospective cohort study. The predictive factors were birth weight, age 3 years old (BW), 12 years old BW, 15 years old BW. Existence of exercise habits in high school, existence of physical inactivity in 20's, vegetables and fruits in their 20's meal, presence of breakfast intake in 20's, existence of blood sugar spikes (GS) in their twenties . We analyzed using a logistic regression model with the presence of obesity as a dependent variable. Results: 67 subjects (mean age 21 ±0.4 years old, 51% women) were included in the analysis. The frequency of blood sugar spikes was 13.4% (1.079 - 78.219). After adjusting individual factors of influence on blood sugar spike, the best predictive model is composed of 12 year old sex, sex, constant (error). The only significant predictor was the BW of 1.222 (1.038 - 1.438) at the age of 12. Gender 0.05 (0.003 - 0.831), Constant 0.0098. Differences in effect by gender were indicated. Interestingly enough, the intake of vegetables and fruits, weight at birth, BW at 3 and 15 years old, exercise habits at high school, physical activity in 20's, breakfast intake habits in 20's, 20 GS is a blood sugar spike It is related to prediction. The impact of Japan's economic depression around 2008 may have an impact on the spread of cheap dextrose food imported from traditional Japanese cuisine. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggested that possibly indicating the weight of 12-year-old adolescents around 2008 as a developmentally complex factor predicting a 20-year-old adolescent blood glucose spike.
