Interrelationship among physical activity, quality of life, clinical and sociodemographic characteristics in a sample of Nigerian patients with type 2 diabetes

Abstract: A number of complexities surround the health and well-being of patients with type 2 diabetes. These difficulties relate to self-care efforts and outcomes, and several other factors play regulatory functions. This study was carried out to investigate the inter-relationship among physical activity, quality of life, and clinical and sociodemographic factors in a group of Nigerian patients with type 2 diabetes. The study was conducted at the outpatient clinics of two major healthcare facilities in Ibadan, Southwes… Show more

“…In the present study, patients with T2DM who participated in !7.5 MET-hr/week of PA had higher b coefficients for total QoL and PCS than those who participated in <7.5 MET-hr/week of PA, after adjustment for other variables. This result is consistent with those of previous research (Adeniyi et al, 2015) in which investigators concluded that individuals with moderate-to-high levels of PA (!10 to ! 25 MET-hr/week) had a 0.4-fold risk (95% CI ¼ [0.2, 0.8]) of having a reduced total QoL compared with those who had lower levels of PA (<10 MET-hr/ week).…”

“…Prior research has shown that PA, and not physical inactivity, was positively associated with higher QoL (Adeniyi et al, 2015;Thiel et al, 2017a). In the present study, patients with T2DM who participated in !7.5 MET-hr/week of PA had higher b coefficients for total QoL and PCS than those who participated in <7.5 MET-hr/week of PA, after adjustment for other variables.…”

“…An interventional study in Sandiego, California [39], showed that exercising and adhering to the recommended diet had a positive impact on the HRQOL of patients. Studies in Nigeria and Canada [36,37] are also in line with this finding. As the number of days of foot care increased the psychological and environmental domains of HRQOL also improved.…”

“…This study showed that patients without co-morbidities had a better score in the physical domains of HRQOL than patients with co-morbidities. This is supported by studies in Nigeria and Singapore [34,37]. Moreover, diabetic patients without diabetes-related complications had a better HRQOL in all domains except the psychological domain.…”

“…Among a cohort of Nigerian diabetics, Ojoawo and Ogunbeku (30) reported 33% high physical activity level, 41% moderate level of physical activity and 26% low physical activity level. Oyewole, Odusan (1) and Adeniyi, Ogwumike (31) also found that 31% and 68.7% respectively of diabetic patients in Nigeria were physically inactive. In Rwanda, Kabanda and Phillips (12) found that 39% of people living with diabetes were inactive.…”
