dc.description.abstractThis research entails, the differential incidence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus between male and female using Beta-Binomial and Negative Binomial models. From the previous works done we discovered that Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus incidence is at increase level in the Region and Localities across the country.In view of this we intend to study gender sensitivity to Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Secondary data for a period of 10 years were collected from medical records of General Hospital, Ifaki-Ekiti. Beta-Binomial and Negative Binomial models were used to fit the Type 2 Diabetes mellitus between male and female patients and to estimate the parameter of both model on type 2 diabetes mellitus between male and female patients.The two models were compared in term of goodness of fit and best fit using AIC with appropriate confidence interval obtained for the two fitted models . The study revealed that Beta-Binomial out performed Negative Binomial model in fitting the incidence of Type 2 Diabetes mellitus. Therefore, the result shows that Beta-Binomial is a good compound distribution to fit a model on type 2 diabetes mellitusen_US
