Abstract

Abstract

Objective This study aims to evaluate the association between neighborhood greenness exposure and diabetes mellitus (DM) among adults in Longzihu District, Bengbu City, and to explore the mediating effect of BMI on neighborhood greenness exposure with DM. Methods In 2015, 3 354 adult residents in Longzihu District were recruited. Basic information was obtained by questionnaire survey. Normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and soil adjusted vegetation index (SAVI) values with 1000 m buffers were used to evaluate neighborhood greenness exposure. Binary Logistic regression was conducted to assess the association between neighborhood greenness exposure and DM. In addition, this study assessed the mediating effects of BMI on neighborhood greenness exposure with DM. Results There were significant differences in the prevalence of DM among different groups in NDVI-1 000m (χ²=36.39, P < 0.001) and SAVI-1 000m (χ²=20.14, P < 0.001). In the fully adjusted model, the prevalence of DM in the Q3 group was 0.538 (OR=0.538, 95% CI: 0.388-0.745) and 0.605 (OR=0.605, 95% CI: 0.440-0.833) compared to the Q1 group under NDVI-1 000 m and SAVI-1 000 m, respectively. The BMI mediated 6.42% (95% CI: 1.83%-16.00%) on NDVI-1 000m with DM and 7.43% (95% CI: 2.36%-19.00%) on SAVI-1 000 m with DM. Conclusion The higher the neighborhood greenness exposure, the lower the prevalence of DM. BMI was a mediating factor between neighborhood greenness exposure with DM.
