“…This was similar to the SEARCH for diabetes in youth study which revealed worse glycemic control in T1DM youths who were underweight (<85th Percentile) or normal weight compared to obese subjects 7 ). The findings are not dissimilar to a Romanian study of 662 T1DM patients 8 which revealed that a BMI above the target (>25 kg/m 2 ) was not associated with greater odds of having an HbA1c higher than the standard (>7%) compared to individuals with normal BMI. The reason for this may be that those with a higher BMI have less severe metabolic decompensation and hence easier and less difficult to control diabetes unlike those who are underweight and have absolute loss of insulin which results in catabolic state and significant weight loss.…”

Objective To determine the factors associated with poor glycemic control in children (1‐10 years), adolescents (11‐18 years) and young adults (19‐40 years) with Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus (T1DM) in Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Center (KCMC) in Moshi, Mount Meru Regional Referral Hospital (MMRRH) and Meru District Hospital (MDH) in Arusha, Tanzania. Methods Cross sectional study of 150 participants conducted from January to June 2019, data was collected by structured questionnaire and analyzed using SPSS version 23. Results The mean HbA1c was 12.3 ± 2.2%, 146 had poor glycemic control (HbA1c > 7.5%). BMI, insulin regime and caretaker education were associated with poor glycemic control. There were 16 participants diagnosed in DKA and the most frequently reported complications in the prior 3 months were hyperglycemia (n = 25), DKA (n = 18) and hypoglycemia (n = 4). Conclusions Glycemic control is still very poor particularly in adolescents. Significant associations with glycemic control were higher BMI, insulin regime and guardian education. The study revealed lower prevalence of DKA at diagnosis compared to previous studies.

“…Studi memperkirakan bahwa saat ini sekitar sepertiga populasi dunia kelebihan berat badan atau obesitas. 8 Beberapa penelitian bahkan menunjukkan bahwa risiko diabetes meningkat antara 4,5 dan 9% untuk setiap kilogram kenaikan berat badan. 9 Selain itu, obesitas terbukti menjadi faktor risiko independen untuk dislipidemia dan penyakit kardiovaskular dan penurunan berat badan dianggap sebagai ukuran kunci untuk manajemen DM tipe 2.…”

Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) type 2 is still a serious health problem in the world. Type 2 DM results from ineffective use of insulin by the body. Most people with type 2 diabetes worldwide are the result of being overweight and lacking physical activity. The purpose of this study was to determine the relationship of body mass index and physical activity with the glycemic control of type 2 DM patients.Methods: This study used an observational study with a cross sectional design conducted at the Panti Wilasa Citarum Hospital in Semarang. The population in this study were outpatients at Panti Wilasa Citarum Hospital with a sample of 74 people. The sampling technique was consecutive sampling. Measurement of glycemic levels with HbA1c, body mass index based on weight and height, and physical activity with the PAR-WHO questionnaire. Data analysis uses the Spearman Rank correlation test. Result: From 74 research respondents found 52.7% of respondents had bad glycemic control. There is a relationship between body mass index and poor glycemic control (p = 0.041). There is no relationship between physical activity and poor glycemic control (p = 0.437).Conclusion: The advice given for respondents is to be able to maintain their diet and increase physical activity by exercising regularly.

“…The prevalence of glycaemic control of 58% obtained in this study was higher than 45% obtained by Ufuoma and colleagues in a cross-sectional study aimed at assessing the level of glyceamic control and its determinants among 200 T2DM patients attending a secondary hospital in Warri, Nigeria (23). BMI showed a statistically significant association with glycaemic control (p<0.01) mirroring the report of some authors in Saudi Arabia(16), Hawaii (24), Nigeria (23), Bulgaria (15), India (25) and Malaysia (26) but was inconsistent with some other studies in Turkey (27), Romania (28) and United States (29). The reason for this finding in this study is unclear.…”

Background: Diabetes mellitus is a metabolic disorder that affects carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism. Body mass index (BMI) and waist-to-hip ratio (WHR) are known anthropometric measurements used to access body fat. Good glycaemic control among diabetics has been found to be difficult to achieve. Several factors including increased body fat has been found to affect glycaemic control. Aim: This study aimed to assess the relationship between the anthropometric indices (BMI and WHR) and glycaemic control among adult diabetics attending the general out-patient clinic (GOPC) of Federal Medical Centre Makurdi (FMC) Makurdi. Materials and methods: This was a cross-sectional study of 359 diabetic patients aged between 18 to 77 years. Selected by systematic sampling technique. Data was collected by interviewer-administered questionnaire. Clinical measurements undertaken included body mass index, waist-to-hip ratio and blood pressure. Fasting blood glucose assay was done for all respondents. Data was analysed with the Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 18. Results: The proportion of those with good glycaemic control was 58%. The mean body mass index (BMI) was
