“…Diabetic is a series of metabolic diseases distinguished by persistently elevated blood sugar levels because a pancreatic lack or inadequate amount of insulin or an inability of the body to utilise insulin. blood glucose concentrations stay high, causing different organ damage because of the uncontrolled DM (Almetahr et al, 2020). To help regulate diabetes needs to make physical-activities contribute to a decrease in the consequences of DM on the human body, so that's simply means that patients need to follow the different behaviours' of self-care which their health professionals to them (Alhaiti et al, 2020;Alzaylaee et al, 2022).…”

Background: It's been proved that daily activity increases insulin sensitivity, general health, and risk profiles of cardiovascular disease. Therefore; physical activities help to reduce the effects of diabetes on the human body.Unfortunately, the physical level is low among diabetic patients and this might be due to a lack of understanding about the value of exercise. The object of this paper is to assess knowledge and awareness of daily activity importance among diabetic patients in KSA. Methods: The observational study was done in KSA. A total of 380 diabetic patients are included in the study, all of whom live in Saudi Arabia. All the patients were answering a questionnaire that assesses their knowledge about the importance of physical activities.Eventually, data was analyzed by SPSS to identify their knowledge level. Results: There were 380 participants in the investigation, with 60.5% of them being female. The participants' ages varied from 18 to 76 years old, making up 43.7% of the sample. There was a 62.2% average knowledge score. The knowledge of physical activity was significantly associated with the type of diabetes, family history of diabetes, having dyslipidaemia, and having kidney disease. Conclusion: In this investigation, we discovered that the sampled people with diabetes had rather low levels of knowledge about physical exercise. More people with T1DM, those with favourable disease history, and people without dyslipidaemia or renal disease were shown to have better knowledge.

Background Hierarchical diagnosis and treatment has been gradually implemented throughout the China. Primary physicians are the main force in primary-level medical and health services, which means that standardized training of primary-level doctors is indispensable. Objectives Evaluation of the effect of primary physician training on standardized management of diabetes, and comparison of the effects of different training models. Method The study selected 24 community health service centers from 4 cities in Liaoning Province, and consisted of two groups: primary physicians (n = 2083) who received training; and patients with diabetes (n = 585) in community health service centers. Short-term training effects on primary physicians were assessed through diabetes knowledge tests at baseline and at the end of training; the long-term effects of training on patients with diabetes were assessed by questionnaires at baseline and 1 year after training. The differences in training effects between different training models were compared. Complication screening results were also assessed. Results After training, the primary physicians’ knowledge of diabetes diagnosis and treatment improved (p < 0.05). The complication screening rate of local diabetes patients increased from 22.2% before training to 27.7% 1 year after training (p = 0.033). There were significant differences in the training effect between different training models (p = 0.038). The short-term intensive training group demonstrated the greatest training effect, primary physicians under this training model are more likely to conduct standardized screenings for patients (OR = 1.806, 95%CI 1.008–3.233), and the complication screening rate was the highest (37.6%). Conclusion This study shows that training of primary physicians is an effective way to improve the standardized management of diabetes, by improving the ability of primary physicians to manage diabetes in a standardized manner, so that patients in primary hospitals receive more comprehensive diagnosis and treatment services. Compared with scattered training throughout the year, short-term intensive training was found to be more effective.
