      in Saudi Arabia: A Web-Based Cross-Sectional Survey Study.

AB  - Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a chronic disease with ever-increasing 
      prevalence worldwide. In our study, we evaluated the prevalence of the risk of 
      developing T2DM in Saudi Arabia and investigated associations between that risk 
      and various sociodemographic characteristics. To those ends, a web-based 
      cross-sectional survey of Saudi nationals without diabetes, all enrolled using 
      snowball sampling, was conducted from January 2021 to January 2022. The risk of 
      developing T2DM was evaluated using a validated risk assessment questionnaire 
      (ARABRISK), and associations of high ARABRISK scores and sociodemographic 
      variables were explored in multivariable logistic regression modeling. Of the 
      4559 participants, 88.1% were 18 to 39 years old, and 67.2% held a college or 
      university degree. High ARABRISK scores were observed in 7.5% of the sample. 
      Residing in a midsize city versus a large city was associated with a lower 
      ARABRISK risk score (p = 0.007), as were having private instead of governmental 
      insurance (p = 0.005), and being unemployed versus employed (p < 0.001). By 
      contrast, being married (p < 0.001), divorced or widowed (p < 0.001), and/or 
      retired (p < 0.001) were each associated with a higher ARABRISK score. A large 
      representative study is needed to calculate the risk of T2DM among Saudi 
      nationals.
