The highest risk was identified in the female sex. The BMI ≥ 25 Kg / m2 had an OR of 5.0 (95% CI: 2,610 - 9,578, p <0.0005), abdominal perimeter ≥ 80 cm in women presented an OR of 8.0 (95% CI: 3,645 - 10,321, p <0.0005), use of antihypertensives OR 9.32 (95% CI: 2.285 - 37.976, p of 0.002), family history OR 11.31 (95% CI: 3.951 - 32.362, p <0.0005), physical activity OR 0.33 (95% CI 0.126-0.861, p 0.023). Conclusions: the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus with a FINDRISC score greater than or equal to 12 was 31.1%.
