BACKGROUND: Sleep deprivation in individuals with diabetes mellitus type 2 is more prevalent than in ordinary people. At present, the adverse effects of diabetes type 2 people with sleep disorders and sleep deprivation on blood sugar control are irrefutable. Thorough assessments covering the whole structure should be of concern in health-care treatment. It is precipitated and delivered to the physical, mental health, and social environment, but no systematic review or minimal data were published. Furthermore, it may significantly affect the system more than existing research. AIM: An integrative review aims to clarify the results or consequences of sleep disturbance/deprivation or insomnia symptoms among diabetes mellitus type 2 patients. METHODS: The writers implemented a literature search in PubMed, CINAHL, and Medline using the terms DM type 2, insomnia, adult, effect, DM, sleep disturbance, sleep disorder, and a consequence between 2012 and 2022. Inclusion criteria selected through considering the entire article, and providing an abstract, were 20 articles. RESULTS: Integrative data extraction and information were analyzed thematically. Identified were nine ideas: Association with blood sugar control, blood pressure control, risk of CVD, diabetes self-care behavior, weight gained and Obstructive Sleep Apnea (OSA), lifestyle and physical activity, mood/depression and anxiety symptoms, daily calories distribution, cholesterol/triglyceride, and liver enzyme levels. CONCLUSION: The adverse effects of sleep deprivation in type 2 diabetes significantly affect all pathophysiologically, mentally, and lifestyle modifications, including diabetes self-care.
