Diabetes mellitus (DM) has several musculoskeletal manifestations, but was never found to be associated with TB. Purpose: To explore the association between DM and TB, based on a large database. The secondary aim was to explore the influence of gender and insulin usage on the occurrence of TB. Study design: cross-sectional study. Methods: A population-based cohort consisting of 60,610 patients (55,428 without DM and 5182 with DM), of whom 5418 were diagnosed with TB. A logistic regression model was applied to estimate propensity scores. Results: The odds of individuals with DM being diagnosed with TB were 55.8% higher compared to the odds of patients without DM (OR: 1.558, 95% CI: [1.429, 1.70], p &lt; 0.0001). We found that insulin users had a lower risk of TB than patients not using insulin (log-rank p &lt; 0.0001). Females are 3.3 times more likely to have TB than males (RR: 3.337, 95% CI: [3.115, 3.584], p &lt; 0.0001). Conclusions: DM is a risk factor for developing TB. Insulin had a protective effect against TB, suggesting that better glycemic control might prevent this painful infliction.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/jcm12196174","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,24]],"date-time":"2023-09-24T10:48:31Z","timestamp":1695552511000},"page":"6174","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Diabetes Mellitus Is a Possible Risk Factor for the Development of Trochanteric Bursitis\u2014A Large-Scale Population-Based Study"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Assaf","family":"Kadar","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Roth|McFarlane Hand and Upper Limb Centre, St. Joseph\u2019s Health Care London, Western University, London, ON N6A 4V2, Canada"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Ron","family":"Itzikovitch","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Independent Researcher, Kfar Saba 4424309, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Yaniv","family":"Warschawski","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tel-Aviv University, Tel-Aviv 4424309, Israel"},{"name":"Division of Orthopaedic Surgery, Tel Aviv Medical Center, Tel-Aviv 6423906, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4126-0573","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Samuel","family":"Morgan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Medicine, Tel-Aviv University, Tel-Aviv 4424309, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Shai","family":"Shemesh","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Samson Assuta Ashdod University Hospital, 7 Ha\u2019Refua Street, Ashdod 7747629, Israel"},{"name":"Faculty of Health Sciences, Ben Gurion University, Beer-Sheva 8410501, Israel"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Canoso, J.J., and Katz, J.
