“…[8][9][10] Além disso, outros fatores de risco associados à RD são: hipertensão arterial sistêmica (HAS), a qual apresenta maior frequência na população com DM; idade no momento do diagnóstico da diabetes; nefropatia diabética; sexo; tabagismo; dislipidemia e obesidade. [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19] Portanto, torna-se importante o acompanhamento de pacientes que apresentem DM e hipertensão quanto aos seus hábitos de vida e controle da doença.…”

Objetivo: avaliar a presença de fatores de risco bem como hábitos de vida relacionados ao desenvolvimento de retinopatia em uma população diabética. Métodos: Foram entrevistados pacientes participantes do grupo Hiperdia em um posto de saúde sobre os hábitos de vida e fatores de risco para retinopatia. Resultados: Foi observada uma frequência de participação no grupo irregular, 29 participantes (93,55%) apresentaram IMC aumentado, 28 (90,3%) responderam que faziam uso de medicação para o controle da pressão arterial, 17 (54,8%) apresentaram alteração da pressão arterial. Observou-se baixo nível de escolaridade, conhecimento da patologia e comprometimento com os cuidados exigidos. Conclusão: Através do melhoramento da atenção primária e do fortalecimento do autocuidado, pode-se melhorar a qualidade de vida dos pacientes e diminuir os gastos públicos.

Abstract. There is limited information on the burden of diabetic nephropathy in developing countries. This study aimed to determine the prevalence of and factors associated with nephropathy among diabetic patients attending an outpatient clinic in Harare, Zimbabwe. In an analytical cross-sectional study, diabetic patients were consecutively enrolled and a questionnaire administered, clinical assessment conducted, and blood samples collected for human immunodeficiency virus testing and measurement of lipids, creatinine, fructosamine, and glycosylated hemoglobin levels. Urine samples were collected for determination of albumin and creatinine levels, which were used to categorize albuminuria. A total of 344 diabetic patients were enrolled. Overall, just over a third (35.8%) of patients had moderately increased albuminuria and 9.0% had severely increased albuminuria giving an overall prevalence of nephropathy of 44.8%. Prevalence of moderately increased albuminuria was slightly higher (36.5% versus 33.3%) and severely increased albuminuria slightly lower (8.8% versus 9.5%) in type 2 than type 1 diabetes patients, but the difference was not statistically significant (P = 0.866). Higher fructosamine and retinopathy were associated with nephropathy in both univariate and multivariate analysis {higher fructosamine (odds ratio [OR] = 1.00, confidence interval [CI] = 1.00-1.01), and retinopathy (OR = 2.80, CI = 1.64-4.97)}. We report a higher prevalence of moderately increased albuminuria and a lower prevalence of severely increased albuminuria compared with findings reported a decade ago among type 1 and type 2 diabetes mellitus patients attending the same clinic. High fructosamine and retinopathy were independent predictors of nephropathy.

“…to 21.7%[56].The high prevalence was observed in rural areas could be due to setbacks in diagnosis, poor self-care, poor health-seeking behavior[64]. It has been documented that approximately one in every ve diabetic individuals has diabetic retinopathy in the rural Indian population[72][73][74].…”

Background Diabetes is progressively becoming a vital chronic disease burden worldwide, mainly in developing countries such as India; this necessitates a shift in healthcare priorities and advanced data on the epidemiology and impact of diabetes to help plan and prioritize health programs. We systematically reviewed the literature on diabetes prevalence and its complications in India. Methods This systematic review focuses on diabetes prevalence and complications in India from January 2000 to September 2021. Literature searches were conducted using electronic databases. Results Diabetes prevalence ranged from 2.02% in rural Madhya Pradesh to 40.3% in Tamil Nadu. Diabetes prevalence was significantly higher in urban areas than in rural areas. The prevalence of pre-diabetes varied across Indian states ranging from 2.4% in Meghalaya to 47.6% in Delhi. The prevalence of chronic diabetes complications ranged from 4.8–21.7% for retinopathy, 0.9–62.3%% for nephropathy, and 10.5–44.9% for neuropathy. Conclusions Diabetes is a significant and widespread health problem in India. Dissimilarity in the prevalence of diabetes between individual states is observed. Most diabetes patients experience chronic complications of diabetes. Consequently, it is essential to map the urgent preventive approach to reduce the further increase in areas with high prevalence.
