Objectives The study aims at determining the prevalence of prediabetes and diabetes and at ascertaining some concomitant risk factors among males in Saudi Arabia. Methods A population-based cross-sectional study including 381 Saudi adult males from different institutions was recruited. Odds ratios for diabetes risk and risk factors were calculated using log-binomial and multinomial logistic regression, using STATA version 12. Results The participants included 381 diabetic males with a median age of 45 years, average body mass index of 25 ± 40 kg/m2, whereas waist circumferences ranged from 66 to 180 cm in the male study population. In addition, 27.82% had normal BMI, 32.28% were overweight, and 36.22% were obese. Around 36% had higher waist circumference, that is, >102 cm. Age, BMI, marital status, and educational attainment were statistically significant predictors for prediabetes and diabetes. Conclusion This study found that the prevalence of diabetes and prediabetes was 9.2% and 27.6%, respectively, for male Al-Kharj study population. The factors that increase the risk of diabetes and prediabetes include older age, obesity and overweight, being married, smoker, and having a civilian job and less education. All these factors were found statistically significant except smoking status and job type. In order to evaluate the causal relationship of these factors, prospective studies are required in future.

Aims: To assess the level of knowledge about colorectal cancer screening methods among the population in Saudi Arabia. Study Design: A cross-sectional study Place and Duration of Study: General Surgery Department, between January 2021 and November 2022. Methodology: This was a cross-sectional, survey-based study conducted in Saudi Arabia. Data was collected using a predesigned self-administered online questionnaire. Inclusion criteria include Saudi male and female between 18-65 years in Saudi Arabia. Then data were analyzed by the SPSS program, version 25 at a level of significance of 0.05. Results: A total of randomly taken 794 participants who filled our questionnaire according to the inclusion criteria. Most of our participants (67.1%) were females and 32.9% of them were males. Only 17.5% of the participants were less than 20 years old, 62.5% of them were between 20 and 30 years old and 20% were more than 30 years old. Most of our participants (58.3%) were university educated, Conclusion: CRC screening were not well known in Saudi Arabia. Educational programs are compulsory and should target people at risk.
