Abstrakt:	Context: Diabetes is a heterogenic disease and distinct clusters have emerged, but the implications for diverse populations have remained understudied. Objective: Apply cluster analysis to a diverse diabetes cohort in the U.S. Deep South. Design: Retrospective hierarchical cluster analysis of electronic health records from 89,875 patients diagnosed with diabetes between January 1, 2010, and December 31, 2019, at the Kirklin Clinic of the University of Alabama at Birmingham, an ambulatory referral center. Patients: Adult patients with ICD diabetes codes were selected based on available data for 6 established clustering parameters (GAD-autoantibody; HbA1c; BMI; Diagnosis age; HOMA2-B; HOMA2-IR); ∼42% were Black/African American. Main Outcome Measure(s): Diabetes subtypes and their associated characteristics in a diverse adult population based on clustering analysis. We hypothesized that racial background would affect the distribution of subtypes. Outcome and hypothesis were formulated prior to data collection. Results: Diabetes cluster distribution was significantly different in Black/African Americans compared to Whites (P<0.001). Black/African Americans were more likely to have severe insulin deficient diabetes (SIDD) (OR 1.83, CI 1.36-2.45, P<0.001), associated with more serious metabolic perturbations and a higher risk for complications (OR 1.42, 95% CI 1.06-1.90, P=0.020). Surprisingly, Black/African Americans specifically had more severe impairment of beta cell function (HOMA2-B, C-peptide) (P<0.001), while not being more obese or insulin resistant. Conclusions: Racial background greatly influences diabetes cluster distribution and Black/African Americans are more frequently and more severely affected by SIDD. This may further help explain the disparity in outcomes and have implications for treatment choice. (© The Author(s) 2024. Published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Endocrine Society.
