[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS BR0xC8kI. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. We assessed educational disparities in smoking rates among adults with diabetes in managed care settings. Methods. We used a cross-sectional, survey-based (2002-2003) observational study among 6538 diabetic patients older than 25 years across multiple managed care health plans and states. For smoking at each level of self-reported educational attainment, predicted probabilities were estimated by means of hierarchical logistic regression models with random intercepts for health plan, adjusted for potential confounders. Results. Overall, 15% the participants reported current smoking. An educational gradient in smoking was observed that varied significantly (P<. across age groups with the educational gradient being strong in those aged to years modest and nonexistent or older. of particular note prevalence smoking observed adults less than a high school education was confidence interval : conclusions. approximately half poorly educated young diabetes smoke magnifying health risk associated early-onset diabetes. targeted public interventions for prevention cessation among people are needed.>
