Introduction: Type 2 diabetes mellitus is the commonest form of diabetes affecting more than 90% of the diabetic population worldwide. The prevalence of type 2 diabetes and its complications are increasing in the world, including developing nations like Nepal. This study aimed to determine the association between the lifestyle risk factors and the risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus in Nepalese population. Methods: This is hospital based cross sectional observational study done in the urban area of Nepal. Records of clients coming for the general health checkup in Grande International Hospital were evaluated in this study. Comparisons of the lifestyle factors in participants having and not having type 2 diabetes mellitus were done. Results: Significant associations with diagnosis of diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 were seen in age (P ≤ 0.001), associated hypertension (P ≤ 0.001), dyslipidemia, family history of DM (P ≤ 0.001), alcohol use (P ≤ 0.001), and tobacco use (P ≤ 0.001). Logistic regression analysis showed that the odds of having diabetes were high in age group above 40 (OR – 6.9, CI 3.82 – 12.47), history of hypertension (OR- 3.84, CI 2.42 – 6.08), tobacco users (OR-2.26, CI 1.12 – 4.53), alcohol users (OR-3.99, CI 2.47 – 6.44), family history of DM (OR-2.44, CI 1.53 – 3.89), and abdominal obesity in both males (OR-3.9, CI 2 – 7.4) and females (OR-9.6, CI 3.78 – 24.35). Conclusions: The modifiable risk factors - obesity, smoking and alcohol use carry significant risks of developing type 2 diabetes. These red flag signs call for urgent attention to look for and rectify the modifiable risk factors in Nepalese population to prevent diabetes.

“…When analyzing the insulin therapy practice of people with DM, it was found that most did not perform the steps appropriately. In this regard, studies claim that sociodemographic and clinical characteristics influence this process (5,(13)(14)(15)(16)(17) . There was a prevalence of female patients, corroborating with the current situation which shows the increase in DM in women, especially because they seek health services more than men, adding to the chances of diagnosis (13) .…”

“…Regarding the social support network, the majority did not live alone, and were married or in a stable relationship. Thus, having family members or a social network is a support which facilitates follow-up of the therapy (16) . However, a study showed that if the person with DM has many responsibilities at home such as taking care of children/older adults, they tend to not perform insulin therapy properly due to lack of time (13) .…”

RESUMO Objetivo Analisar a insulinoterapia realizada por pessoas com diabetes na Atenção Primária em Saúde. Método Estudo transversal, descritivo e quantitativo. A coleta de dados foi realizada por meio de entrevista, utilizando-se formulário com variáveis sociodemográficas, clínicas e etapas da insulinoterapia. Foram calculadas frequências absoluta e relativa, razão de prevalência e foi usado o teste de qui-quadrado, sendo significante o p < 0,05. Resultados A amostra foi composta de 150 pacientes. A maioria era do sexo feminino (66,7%), faixa etária de 50-85 anos (79,3%) e havia analfabetos (16,7%). Destacou-se o diabetes tipo 2 (62,0%) com complicações (42,7%), em uso de hipoglicemiantes orais e insulina. Seringas/agulhas (83,1%), lancetas (85,5%), fitas reagentes (91,0%) e frascos de insulina (93,8%) foram armazenados incorretamente pela maioria. No preparo, aplicação e transporte predominou a forma correta. Resíduos foram descartados incorretamente. Na análise geral das etapas da insulinoterapia, a maioria a realizava de forma inadequada (93,3%). Variáveis sociodemográficas e clínicas não influenciaram na prática insulinoterápica, mas na análise intragrupo houve diferença significante para realização incorreta em alguns grupos. Conclusão A insulinoterapia foi realizada de forma inadequada na maioria dos casos.

Early diagnosis and life style modification among high risk group can decrease the burden of disease. This study was done to find out the random blood sugar level and assess the relationships between body mass index (BMI), waist hip ratio (WHR) and random blood sugar among the study population. Methods: A cross sectional study was done using retrospective data collected at the health camp conducted during month of October 2018. The study area was Nagarjun and Chandragiri municipalities of Kathmandu district. The data was analyzed using SPSS version 21. The chi square test was used to assess relation between BMI,WHR and Random blood sugar. Results: The number of participants in this study was 274. Majority of the participants, (92.7%) had random blood sugar level 200mg/dl or less. Those having RBS of more than 200mg/dl were 7.3%. Among all participants, 16.06% were obese. Further the obese participants showed high waist hip ratio in 81.8% and 9.1% of them had moderate or low waist hip ratio. Further, 46 participants showed diabetic blood sugar level and were either overweight (39.13%) or obese (28.26%). Conclusions: This study concluded that those who had diabetic blood sugar level or high waist hip ratio had increases BMI.
