Determining the sex specific prevalence as well as risk of developing type II diabetes in a community.

In a Cape York community with a population of 31357 (male- female ratio=49:51) at the beginning of 2003 there were 4,908 female type II diabetics and 3,093 male type II diabetics. At the beginning of 2005, there were an additional 304 female type 2 diabetics and an additional 213 male type II diabetics.

1) describe what was the sex-specific prevalence of type 2 diabetes in the community at the beginning of 2003?

2) describe what was the sex-specific prevalence of type 2 diabetes in the community at the beginning of 2005?

3) describe what is the most appropriate measure of the incidence of diabetes in this scenario?

4) Compute the risk (i.e. measure of Incidence identified in part three) of developing type II diabetes among females in this community.

5) Compute the risk (i.e. measure of Incidence identified in part three) of developing type II diabetes among males in this community.
