Association between living alone and incident type 2 diabetes among middle-aged individuals in Korea: a nationwide cohort study
Abstract We studied the association between living alone and the risk of incident type 2 diabetes in middle-aged individuals using nationwide cohort data from the Korean population. 11,686, 677 middle-aged individuals aged 40–64 years who underwent health examinations by the Korean National Health I...
