Abstract Background: Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is one of the chronic non-communicable diseases that has currently been very common, in particular Diabetes Mellitus type 2 that threatens public health. It has been included in the category of the six biggest causes of worldwide death, but self-control of treatment and obedience to self-care is still low. One of the influencing factors is related to the lack of knowledge. Providing ongoing health education is one of the solutions or efforts to strengthen knowledge in type 2 diabetes. The aim was to identify the various health education methods currently used by nurses and their impacts on type 2 DM. The method used is a literature review. The literature was searched on data based on Scopus, Web of Science, SAGE, CINAHL with the keywords methods or interventions, education, health, nursing, and type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Fifteen (15) pieces of literature were considered to meet the criteria inclusion. Results: Three (3) types of health education methods used by nurses were identified: 1). Direct health education refers to providing education by nurses to patients through training, coaching, interviews, Focus Group Discussion (FGD), and home visits; 2). Indirect Health Education - using mobile phones; 3). The mix of direct health education and the use of mobile phone-based applications is carried out with the application of mobile health technology and nurse health coaching. The impact of providing health education by nurses to type 2 diabetic patients: increasing of knowledge, behavioral change on preventing diabetes complications, increasing self-efficacy, increasing self-care activities (diet management, physical activity, monitoring blood sugar levels, and foot care). Conclusion: various methods of health education carried out by nurses currently have a positive impact on improving and increasing self-care management and efforts to prevent complications in type 2 diabetes.

AIM: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of short-term education on glycemic control (glycated hemoglobin [HbA1c] and fasting blood sugar [FBS]) among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients attending to primary health care (PHC) in Medan Johor of North Sumatera, Indonesia. METHODS: The study was performed on type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in Johor PHC, Medan of North Sumatera, on 40 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. We took the samples of all the patients of type 2 diabetes mellitus who attend PHC in Medan Johor. The patients received for 3 months intervention by education. An educational course of diabetes together with exercise training and nutritional education was designed for the study population in order to increase the patients’ knowledge and attitude toward diabetes and to increase their participation in the self-monitoring of glycemic control. Samples of FBS and HbA1c were recorded for each patient at the time of the baseline survey, then health education was conducted to the diabetic patients of both sexes attending PHC. The patients received standard advice on diet management and variation about activity. We put HbA1c <6.5% as cut limit for the control of diabetes mellitus. RESULTS: All 40 type 2 diabetes patients completed the educational course. The mean of age of the samples is 62.53 years old, the mean of body mass index was 24.81 kg/m, and the mean of waist size was 92.15 cm. Before the education, the mean of FBS level was 238.83 mg/dl and the mean of Hba1c value is 8.90%. After education, the FBS was 216.88 mg/dl, the mean of HbA1c value was 8.74%. CONCLUSION: The effect of health education in Johor Public Health Care Medan city reduced glycemic control (FBS) in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients, North Sumatera, Indonesia.

COVID-19 is a pathogenic virus that caused a pandemic outbreak in December 2019. The impact of this virus may be severe in the patients having co-morbidities like diabetes, hypertension, Chronic Kidney Disease, cardiovascular disease, etc. Aim and Objectives: This study Aims in Assessing the impact of COVID-19 on Diabetic and Hypertensive patients as well as COVID-19 patients without any co-morbidities. Objective of this is to evaluate the association between COVID-19 and its risk factors (diabetes and hypertension) and to evaluate whether the severity of the symptoms in COVID-19 patients is due to comorbidities or past medications. Methodology: A Retrospective study was conducted in SRM Hospital (Medical Records Department) for a period of 3 Months with the study population 670 at the age group of 25, known case of Diabetes and Hypertension. Cases of Pregnant women are excluded from the study. The patients were grouped into 4 categories 1) control group (patient without any co-morbidities) 2) diabetic patients 3) Hypertensive patient 4) Diabetic+Hypertension patient and studied their prescribing pattern by collecting the past medication history. Results and Discussion: There is a significant decrease in a lymphocyte in covid-19 Type 2 diabetic patients in our study. These results suggest that different mechanism exists for hypertension and diabetes mellitus as risk factors for covid-19. It is also known that these patients have impaired immune response to many infections [30]. In our retrospective study, we collected 670 covid-19 cases. It consists of 12.5% of diabetic patients and 6.6% of hypertensive patients. This study compared COVID-19 patients without any comorbidity (neither Type 2 diabetes mellitus nor hypertension) with covid- 19 patients with comorbidities (Type 2 diabetes mellitus and hypertension). COVID-19 patients with T2DM have an increased level of D-dimer compared to non-T2DM patients. Conclusion: Diabetic and hypertensive patients affected with COVID-19 are low in our study. Out of the total study population, only 12.5% are diabetic, 6.56% are hypertensive, and 9.25% were both diabetic and hypertensive. But when comparing in terms of severity, hypertensive and diabetic patients have severe effects than the control patients. In simpler terms, not every person who has diabetes and hypertension are affected with COVID-19, but those who were affected by COVID-19 showed more severity than the patients who don't have any comorbidities

Previous studies have analyzed the impact of diabetes mellitus on labor market participation by men and women, but gender difference between type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and employment has not been the focus. This study aims to explore gender differences between T2DM and employment status. Data from the Korea Health Panel Study, 2013–2015 were analyzed by distinguishingT2DM and non-diabetes (N = 11,216). The empirical model was established and the generalized two-stage least squares (2SLS) was estimated, controlling for endogeneity. A family history of diabetes, as an instrumental variable, was related to an individual’s genetic predisposition to develop diabetes. The estimated results for the 2SLS showed the interaction effects between T2DM and employment. T2DM had a statistically significant and negative effect on employment for women only. The comparison with non-diabetes showed that women with T2DM had a lower probability of employment by 51.9% (p < 0.05). Exposing gender bias in employment suggests that healthcare policies and disease management programs for diabetic patients should adopt gender-specific remedies.

The family has to provide support that can have a positive impact on dietary complience. It can be in the form of being able to control what can be consumed according to the recommendations of health workers during the diet, reminding each other, and providing support to family members who are on a diabetes mellitus diet. To determine the description of family support and dietary complience in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The research method used in this study was a literature review by conducting an online searh from the Medline database source and the Garuda portal. There were 5 articles found that matched the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results showed that 361 respondents (52,7%) had good family support and 432 respondents (63%) had non-adherent dietary compliance levels. Good family support can prevent complications and help treatment so that patients are more enthusiastic and can carry out activites as usual. Dietary non-compliance can delay the patient’s recovery. Familly support, although it is good, does not guarantee that dietary complience will also be good. Other factors can affect dietary complience, such as age, education, and occupation.Keywords: Type 2 diabetes mellitus; family suppor; dietary complience   AbstrakDiabetes mellitus merupakan penyakit kronis yang berhubungan erat dengan pola hidup, penyakit ini banyak dialami oleh penduduk di dunia.

Background: Chronic liver disease occurs due to different etiologies. Most diabetic patients are unaware that the effective control of hyperglycemia might reduce complications and mortality rates. Fatty liver disease is considered a risk factor of hepatic cirrhosis and cancers. Methods and Results: We conducted a case-control study to assess the impact of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) on the liver using a CT scan. A total of 100 patients with T2DM and 96 non-diabetic patients as a control group were selected using a convenient sampling method. There was a significant difference in liver attenuation in diabetic and control groups. The CT attenuation values of the liver, pancreas, and spleen were significantly lower in patients with T2DM than in non-diabetics (P<0.001). There was a significant negative correlation between the duration of T2DM and CT attenuation of the liver, pancreas, and spleen (P<0.01). Conclusion: The CT attenuation of the liver was significantly lower in T2DM than in the non-diabetic patients, and liver attenuation decreased as the duration of T2DM increased.
