Objective: To identify the occurrence of Diabetes Mellitus (DM), risk factors, stress and health-care activities performed by diabetic nursing workers. Methods: This is a descriptive study with 418 professional nurses, working at a university hospital. Data were collected through a semistructured instrument and were analyzed using the frequency distribution, the chi-square test (p <0.05) and the odds ratio. Results: Most of the professionals were female and had between 20 and 30 years of age. All risk factors for DM were present, including the factors that can be modified. It was found a larger proportion of diabetic workers that had: overweight; arterial hypertension and capillary blood glucose altered, when compared to those without the disease. It was not found an increased likelihood of developing DM among nursing workers who reported stress. The workers with DM did not attend to the monthly follow up(69.2%); they were treated in private services (70%); and, they did not participate in educational activities (92.3%). Conclusion: It is necessary to develop health actions aimed to the workers, in order to prevent DM.

Métodos: Estudo descritivo realizado com 418 profissionais de enfermagem de um hospital universitário. Os dados foram coletados por meio de instrumento semiestruturado e analisado, utilizando-se a distribuição de freqüência, teste qui-quadrado (p<0,05) e odds ratio. Resultados: A maioria dos profissionais era do sexo feminino e possuia de 20 a 30 anos de idade. Todos os fatores de risco para DM estavam presentes, inclusive, os passíveis de modificação. Houve maior proporção de trabalhadores diabéticos com: sobrepeso; hipertensão arterial e glicemia capilar alterada, quando comparados aos que não tinham essa doença. Não se observou maior chance de desenvolver DM entre os trabalhadores de enfermagem que referiram estresse. Os trabalhadores com DM não faziam acompanhamento mensal (69,2%); eram atendidos em serviços particulares (70%), e nem participavam de atividades educativas (92,3%). Conclusão: Faz-se necessário desenvolver ações em saúde direcionadas aos trabalhadores, visando a prevenção do DM.

Background. Obesity has been cited as a public health problem in both developing and developed countries. There is evidence that rates of obesity have increased among healthcare workers (HCWs) in South Africa (SA), especially those who do night shifts, with a negative effect on health. Perceptions of body weight contribute significantly to the desire to lose weight or not to do so. Objective. To determine perceptions of HCWs regarding their own body weight in selected public hospitals in Mpumalanga Province, SA. Methods. The study design was a cross-sectional survey. A total of 210 HCWs were sampled. Data were collected using self-administered questionnaires. Anthropometric measurements such as weight and height were objectively measured and body mass indices (BMIs) were calculated. Results. Of the sample of HCWs 82.4% were females, with a mean age of 37.8 years. About half (51.9%) were obese and 21.4% were overweight. They tended to misperceive their body weight compared with actual BMI classification, with the majority of obese and overweight individuals considering themselves to be of normal weight. Conclusions.The results indicate that HCWs misclassify their own body weight, which is a risk factor for obesity. It is important to focus on the health of this group of workers, on whom the health of South Africans depends and who should be the drivers of healthy living for all. Correct classification of their own body weight will encourage people to take action in a bid to combat their own and others' obesity.
