Abstract
España se ha convertido en una sociedad rápidamente envejecida. El conocimiento de su salud y de sus enfermedades crónicas es cada vez más importante, ya que estas enfermedades forman parte importante de la mortalidad y de la carga de enfermedad (Pluga y Abellan, 2003; López et al., 2006). Este grupo de población es particular, con características propias y especiales, como elevados niveles de discapacidad, fragilidad, estado funcional, la comorbilidad acompañante y la elevada prevalencia de ciertas enfermedades crónicas, entre las que destaca la diabetes mellitus (DM) tipo 2 (Landman et al., 2010). La DM es la quinta enfermedad más prevalente en el anciano, constituyendo la enfermedad endocrina más frecuente y uno de los principales problemas de salud en este grupo poblacional (King et al., 1998; Meneilly, 2006; Zarowitz et al., 2006; Rizvi, 2007; International Diabetes Federation, 2013). La mortalidad y el tiempo de supervivencia de una enfermedad son dos de los indicadores más importantes de salud pública, cuya información se utiliza como un instrumento de planificación sanitaria para poder determinar la implantación de nuevas medidas de prevención o tratamiento (Villarejo Galende, 2012). No son muy numerosos los estudios de mortalidad y diabetes en los ancianos, siendo escasos en nuestro país...

This group of population is particular, with own and features special, as high levels of disability, frailty, functional status, comorbidity companion, and the high prevalence of certain chronic diseases, notably type 2 diabetes mellitus (Landman et al., 2010). The diabetes mellitus is the fifth disease more prevalent in the elderly, constituting the most common endocrine disease and one of the main health problems in this population group (King et al., 1998; Meneilly, 2006; Zarowitz et al., 2006; Rizvi, 2007; International Diabetes Federation, 2013). Mortality and survival of an illness are two of the most important indicators of public health, whose information is used as an instrument of health planning, in order to determine the implementation of new measures of prevention of treatment (Villarejo Galende, 2012). Studies of mortality and diabetes in the elderly, being rare in our country and are not very numerous. The objectives of this study have been analyzing the all cause mortality in patients with diabetes, in a study of prospective, longitudinal, based on the census, the center of Spain, during a follow-up periord of 13 years, to know the survival as well as sociodemographic characteristics and investigate factors related to mortality and diabetes in this group of elderly patiens...
