Overview of adverse childhood experiences with the age of diabetes diagnosis: Examination of the 2021 BRFSS.
Background: Previous research has linked the manifestation of multiple chronic diseases that are frequently due to health behaviors to adverse childhood experiences (ACEs). Despite this, the link between ACEs and the age of diabetes mellitus (DM) diagnosis is scarce. As such, our primary objective was to evaluate and describe the impact of ACEs on the age at diagnosis utilizing the data from the 2021 Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS). Our secondary objective was to analyze the relationship between various demographic factors and the Type II DM diagnosis age.
