Abstract
Objective: Compare age, gender, clinical and paraclinical characteristics between two groups of family health history positive and negative for diabetes. Patients and methods: Cross-sectional study.

The positive family health history group had age of diabetes onset 5 years lower than the diabetes negative family health history group, this difference was statistically significant with p < 0.05. Clinical and paraclinical characteristics were almost similar with no differences in both groups. Conclusion: There is a difference in the age of onset of type 2 diabetes in the two groups, the group with a negative family health history of diabetes has a higher age of onset of type 2 diabetes than the group with a positive family health history of diabetes
