Abstract

Introduction Maintaining good glycemic control is the main therapeutic target for diabetes mellitus (DM) patients. Nevertheless, due to complex factors, the majority of patients worldwide persist poorly controlled. Hence the study was conducted to determine the association of anthropometric measurement and other factors with glycemic control among type 2 DM patients. Methods An institutional-based cross-sectional study was conducted among 366 type 2 DM patients from October-1 to November 30/2019. Data were collected by a pre-tested structured questionnaire and data abstraction format. The collected data were edited in Epi-data-4.4.1.0 and exported to SPSS-25 for analysis. The degree of association was assessed using logistic regression analysis and expressed in terms of p value and odds ratio with a 95%CI. p value < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results Of the total 366 participants, (66.1%) had poor glycemic control. Increased waist circumference (AOR 2.37, 95% CI 1.28-4.40 for overweight and AOR 3.31, 95% CI 1.28-8.58 for obesity), long duration of DM (AOR 2.12, 95% CI 1.14-3.95 for 5-10 years and AOR 5.67, 95% CI 1.76-11.30 for > 10 years), occupation (AOR 3.74, 95% CI 1.94-7.23 for government employee and AOR 4.90, 95% CI 2.19-10.94 for private employee), and family history of DM (AOR 1.93, 95% CI 1.08-3.43), were significantly associated with poor glycemic control. Conclusion Nearly two-thirds of study participants had poor glycemic control. Increased waist circumference, long duration of DM, occupational status, and family history of DM were independently associated with poor glycemic control. Therefore, type 2 DM patients with these identified factors should be strictly monitored to maintain good glycemic control.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
