ABSTRACT
Diabetes mellitus (DM) is associated with increased fracture risk in White adults. However, the impact of DM on fractures in Black adults is unknown. This systematic review and meta-analysis investigated the association between DM and fractures in adults of African ancestry. MEDLINE, Scopus, CINAHL and Embase databases were searched from their inception up to November 2023 for all studies in the English language investigating the epidemiology of fractures (prevalence, incidence, or risk) in Black men and women (age ≥ 18 years) with type 1 or type 2 DM. Effect sizes for prevalence of previous fractures (%) and incident fracture risk (hazard ratio [HR]) were calculated using a random-effects model on Stata (version 18.0). There were 13 eligible studies, of which 12 were conducted in Black adults from the United States, while one was conducted in adults of West African ancestry from Trinidad and Tobago. We found no fracture data in Black adults with DM living in Africa. Five studies were included in a meta-analysis of incident fracture risk, reporting data from 2926 Black and 6531 White adults with DM. There was increased risk of fractures in Black adults with DM compared to non-DM (HR = 1.65; 95 % confidence interval [CI] 1.14, 2.39). The risk of fractures was also higher in White adults with DM compared to non-DM (HR = 1.31; 95 % CI 1.06, 1.61) among these studies. Five studies were included in a meta-analysis of fracture prevalence, of which three also reported fracture prevalence in White adults. There were 175 previous fractures among 993 Black adults with DM and 384 previous fractures among 1467 White adults with DM, with a pooled prevalence of 17.5 % (95 % CI 15.4, 19.6) and 25.8 % (95 % CI 4.8, 46.8), respectively. Our results indicate a high burden of fractures in Black adults with DM.
