“…One hundred and sixty-two adults with T2DM, 21 years and older, attending the outpatient clinic of OOUTH and able to grant an interview were consecutively recruited during the study period (March 2016 to May 2017). Sample size was determined with the assumption of moderate effect size at significant criterion of 0.05 with the formula N = 8K + 40, where N is the sample size and K is the number of variables 15. To achieve statistically significant prediction using Poisson regression analysis at α = 0.05 with 10 variables, the calculated sample size is 120:[8 × 10 + 40].…”

Summary Background Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a public health issue associated with a high prevalence of disability. Studies on disability profile in terms of reduction in body structure and function, personal activities and societal participation, defined as ‘global disability’, are scarce among people living with T2DM in Nigeria. Objectives To assess the prevalence of global disability and its predictors among Nigerian living with T2DM. Methods A cross-sectional analysis of 162 patients diagnosed with T2DM and attending a tertiary health facility was performed for global disability measure and function. Their clinical and socio-demographic data were obtained. Poisson regression analysis was applied to assess the predicting factors of disability. Results A mean global disability score of 22.1 was reported among the participants, varying from moderate to high in each item. About 25.0% had mild disability, while 60.5% reported moderate to severe disability. Elevated glycosylated haemoglobin, fasting blood glucose, systolic blood pressure, age, disease duration and marital status predicted disability. A unit increase in HbA1c, systolic blood pressure and 1 month increase in DM duration had more disability reported estimates [1.062 (CI=1.050–1.075), 1.005 (CI=1.002–1.007) and 1.001 (CI=1.000–1.002) times, respectively]. Married participants were 1.13 (CI=1.02–1.23) times more likely to be disabled than unmarried. Conclusions There is mild to moderate burden and risk of global disability among Nigerian living with T2DM. Age, DM duration, marital status, fasting blood glucose, glycosylated haemoglobin and systolic hypertension significantly predicted disability. Funding None declared

Antes da seleção, o tamanho da amostra foi determinado com base na fórmula n=40 + 8M, onde n=tamanho da amostra e M=número de variáveis (13) . Neste estudo, as variáveis desfecho são a qualidade de vida e o índice de sobrecarga do cuidador modificado.…”

Objective: to analyze the caregiver burden and the quality of life of informal caregivers of children with cerebral palsy. Methods: the cross-sectional survey involved 109 caregivers of children with cerebral palsy recruited from physiotherapy clinic at a tertiary hospital. The quality of life and caregiver burden were assessed using the Personal Wellbeing Index Scale and the Modified Caregivers’ Strain Index, respectively. Data were analysed using descriptive and inferential statistics. Results: the mean strain index and quality of life scores of the participants were 11.85 ± 5.72 and 64.68 ± 8.03 respectively. The majority (67.9%) of the caregivers had fair personal well-being, while about one-third (33.0%) had high caregiver’s strain. Child’s age (B=2.454; p<0.005) and caregivers’ occupation (B= -2.547; p=0.001) were predictors of caregiver strain. Conclusion: caring for children with cerebral palsy imposed a substantial burden on the caregivers and child’s age and caregivers’ occupation were predictor variables.

“…Although factors associated with DRSCA have received a lot of research attention, as shown by a meta‐synthesis (Schulman‐Green, Jaser, Park, & Whittemore, ), there is no sufficient explanation for non‐adherence to self‐care activities (Blackburn et al, ). Therefore, interest in exploring the role of psychological resources for promoting DRSCA among patients with T2DM has recently emerged (Al‐Hassan, Al‐Akour, & Aburas, ). It is suggested that researchers should also consider patients’ inner strengths (Schiavon, Marchetti, Gurgel, Busnello, & Reppold, ; Wu et al, ).…”

AimThis study aimed to explore how social support (external factor), optimism (internal factor) and their interaction associated with diabetes‐related self‐care activities (DRSCA) over 3 months among people with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM).DesignBoth questionnaire‐based and telephone‐based survey were used. The data were collected face to face, the first time by questionnaire and the second time by telephone.MethodsOne hundred and fifty‐five patients completed valid survey questionnaires (response rate was about 70% in the first and 62% in the second round). The association of social support and optimism with subsequent DRSCA was examined after adjusting for demographics and disease information.ResultsBased on results, optimism was significantly associated with subsequent DRSCA. In the dimensions of social support, objective social support and support use were significantly associated with subsequent DRSCA. The results showed that the mediation of optimism between the dimensions of social support and DRSCA was not significant after controlling for covariates. The results also indicated that social support and optimism played directly an important role in improving diabetes‐related self‐care activities.
