“…A representative sample was calculated using the sampling formula for a single cross-sectional survey. Sample size was calculated depending on a 29% prevalence of T2DM in females in SA [24], 95% confidence interval, error not greater than 5%, and a nonresponse rate of 20%. The total sample size was 380 females.…”

Despite the benefits of physical activity (PA) for the management of type 2 diabetes Mellitus (T2DM), the topic of PA is poorly addressed in Saudi Arabia (SA), especially in females with T2DM. The present study examined PA and its associated factors in females with T2DM in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. This observational cross-sectional study was performed in a random sample of 372 women with T2DM. A face-to-face interview that covered PA, health and environmental correlates of PA was performed. Discriminant analysis was used to determine which barriers had the greatest impact on PA in these women. The results showed that approximately 26.3% of the study participants met PA recommendations. Multivariate linear regression revealed lower levels of PA were associated with women who had more than three children (β =-0.17) compared to women with no children, older age (β =-0.18), women with a duration of diabetes � 6 years (β =-0.16), women who were obese (β =-0.23), women with no family support (β =-0.20), no friend support (β =-0.13) and no healthcare provider support (β =-0.14). Discriminant analysis indicated that culture and tradition, lack of skills and knowledge, safety, fatigue, lack of time, weather conditions, and lack of facilities were the barriers that differentiated between the women who met and those who did not meet the PA recommendations. The present study suggests that the prevalence of PA is low and number of children, age, duration of diabetes, Obesity, family support, friend support and healthcare provider support are identified correlates of PA. These findings are valuable and should be used to design and implement future PA interventions, especially for women with T2DM. Healthcare providers may improve exercise levels and identify the specific barriers to reaching the recommended level of PA to improve health outcomes for each patient.

Objectives To assess the prevalence of anxiety and depression and to identify their associated risk factors among people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. Methods A cross-sectional, single-centre study that included 300 adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus was conducted at The Diabetic Center of King Saud Hospital in the Qassim region. Anxiety and depression were measured by using the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS). Multivariable analysis using multiple logistic regression was conducted to evaluate the combined effect of various factors associated with anxiety and depression, adjusting for confounding variables. Results Overall, 43.6% (95% CI: 37.9–49.3%) and 34.8% (95% CI: 29–40%) of the participants experienced anxiety and depression, respectively. Anxiety was more common among patients who had poor social support (OR 5.35, P 0.001). Anxiety was less common among retired people (OR 0.36, P 0.048) and those having diabetes for more than ten years (OR 0.39, P 0.006). In contrast, depression was more common among patients who had received moderate (OR 2.47, P 0.031) or low social support (OR 6.62, P 0.000) but less common among those having diabetes for more than ten years (OR 0.44, P 0.022). Conclusion This study showed that the prevalence of anxiety and depression is high among adults with type 2 diabetes mellitus. These results should alert clinicians to identify and treat anxiety and depression as part of multidisciplinary diabetes care. Larger community-based studies are needed to identify the magnitude of these problems and their related factors.

Complications are the factors that determine the length of the day of treatment of diabetes mellitus patients in the hospital such as hypertension, stroke, coronary heart disease, cholesterol, obesity and others. This study aims to analyze differences in Length of Stay (LOS) of patients with diabetes mellitus based on complications in RSUP Dr. Sardjito Yogyakarta.This research is an analytic observational quantitative research with cross sectional design. The population is all people with diabetes mellitus from year 2011-2016 recorded in electronic medical record. All the population used as research sample that is as many as 1,554 people. Independent variables in this study were hypertension, nephropathy, neuropathy, obesity, CHD, stroke, and pulmonary TB. Dependent variable is Length of Stay or long treatment of diabetes mellitus patient. Data analysis was performed using Independent T test. Diabetes mellitus patients at RSUP Dr. Sardjito year 2011-2016 amounted to 1,554 people with a trend that tends to decline. Most patients were aged 56-63 years (27.86%). The incidence of diabetes mellitus is dominated by type 2 with the highest complications being hypertension, nephropathy, and neuropathy. Based on the result of statistical test, there is a significant difference between the average LOS between patients with diabetes mellitus who have hypertension complications with non-hypertensive (p-value = 0.00), neuropathy with non-neuropathy (p-value = 0.00), coronary heart disease with which is not coronary heart disease (p-value = 0.035), and stroke with non-stroke (p-value = 0.032). Conclusions: There is significant difference in mean LOS among patients with diabetes mellitus who have complications of hypertension, neuropathy, coronary heart disease, and stroke with no complications of the disease.
