 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.

BACKGROUND: Diabetes is the leading cause of morbidity and mortality amongst the people of Pakistan. In 2015, 7 million people had diabetes and the number is still on raise. Family history of diabetes, high body mass index, and other sociodemographic factors are the risk factors of diabetes. Persistent exposure to excessive glucose may be a reason behind diabetic complications like nephropathy, neuropathy, retinopathy, cardiomyopathy and gestational diabetes mellitus.METHODS: For the evaluation of laboratory parameters, 600 blood samples were collected at Akhuwat Diabetic Centre and from Jinnah Hospital, Lahore. Demographic data of the participants was collected by filling a questionnaire. Lipid profile, liver enzymes, and renal function tests were performed and statistical analysis was done.RESULTS: Type 2 diabetes mellitus among other types is the most prevalent form of diabetes in our population. Family history of diabetes (p=0.002), Body Mass Index (>25) p<0.001, high cholesterol (p=0.04), high triglyceride p<0.001, high LDL p<0.001 and low HDL p<0.001 are significantly associated with the incidence of diabetes. Hypertension among the other comorbidities is more common in diabetic patients.CONCLUSION: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus is highly prevalent in the local population. Improved lifestyle and proper medical monitoring can help to manage diabetes in our population.

Type 2 diabetes mellitus is reaching epidemic proportions among children and adolescents. School health fairs offer an opportunity to identify children with risk factors for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus. This study identified selected risk factors (i.e., high-risk racial/ethnic group, obesity, elevated blood pressure, elevated casual blood glucose, elevated total cholesterol, and the presence of acanthosis nigricans) for development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in rural children with or without a family history of diabetes during annual school health fairs. Of the children screened, 40% (673) presented with two or more of the identified risk factors for type 2 diabetes mellitus. The presence of multiple risk factors in participants reporting a positive family history of diabetes mellitus versus those with no family history was not statistically significant. Based on the study results, factors other than family history may be more predictive for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in rural school children.

Background and Aims: Individuals with prediabetes, impaired fasting glucose (IFG) and/or impaired glucose tolerance (IGT), have approximately 50% risk to develop type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) within ten years. This paper examines risk factors for development of T2DM in individuals with prediabetes. Materials and Methods: A total of 2816 individuals were randomly selected and completed a careful physical examination and an oral glucose tolerance test. IFG and IGT was defined according to WHO. A representative sample of 1327 individuals were re-examined in a follow-up study after ten years. This study focuses on the participants who were diagnosed with prediabetes, IFG (n=67) and/or IGT (n=89) at baseline and who were re-examined at follow-up. Insulin resistance was estimated by HOMA-ir (Homeostatic Model Assessment for Insulin Resistance). Differences between the participants with prediabetes who developed T2DM and those who did not, were analyzed with general linear models and adjusted for age, sex and BMI. The risk to progress to T2DM in ten years was explored using binary logistic regression, adding the risk-factors one after another. Results: Of the 156 individuals with prediabetes 28% progressed to T2DM. Individuals who developed T2DM had higher BMI (α=3.2kg/m 2 , P<0.001), higher HbA1c (α=0.2 mmol/mol, P=0.047), higher C-reactive protein (α=3.3 mmol/L, P=0.040) and also significantly higher HOMAir (α=2.8, P<0.001) at base-line. The risk to develop T2DM increased in a step-wise manner in individuals with prediabetes when successively adding the risk-factors. Having a BMI ≥30kg/m 2 , a known family history for T2DM, HbA1c ≥37mmol/mol, HOMAir ≥2.8 and a low level of physical activity increased the risk to develop T2DM 5.6 times. Table 1. Conclusion: In individuals with prediabetes, those with additional risk-factors like obesity, HbA1c and HOMAir above mean values, family history for T2DM and a low level of physical activity require extra attention and intensive lifestyle interventions should be initiated.

Background: The prevalence of Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2 DM) in children and adolescents is on the increase, therefore, prevention and early detection are important.Objective: To assess for easily identifiable risk factors (overweight/obesity, hypertension, Impaired Fasting Glucose (IFG) and family history of diabetes) for T2DM in adolescents in public secondary schoolsResult: Eight hundred and eighty adolescents aged 10 to 19 years were screened and 124(14.1%) were overweight/obese. 457 (51.9%) of students had none of the risk factors while 272(30.9%) had at least one risk factor. Using the American Diabetes Association criteria for identification of those at risk for T2DM, 21(2.4%) were identified. The frequency of presence of risk factors was more in females (3.3%), mid adolescent age group (3.1%) and those with positive family history of diabetes. These findings were however not statistically significant. There was a statistically significant association between presence of hypertension and impaired fasting glucose and risk factor for type 2 DM.Conclusion: The significant risk factors identified in this study were prehypertension/hypertension and impaired fasting blood glucose.Key words: Adolescence, Risk factors, Type 2 diabetes mellitus

Abstract BACKGROUND: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a condition of increase in blood glucose levels, due to impaired synthesis and/or secretion of insulin. Family history of DM is one of the non-modifiable risk factors for someone to suffering DM. Individual knowledge, attitude, and practice towards DM also affects a person to suffering DM. AIM: This study aims to determine the relationship between family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and knowledge, attitude, and practice regarding T2DM among medical students at the Universitas Sumatera Utara. METHODS: This study was an online questionnaire-based observational study. It was involved 370 medical students from batches of 2017, 2018, and 2019 at the Universitas Sumatera Utara during the period from April-October 2020. Data was collected using a questionnaire containing questions and statements regarding knowledge, attitude, and practice of respondents towards T2DM. The questionnaire also contains questions about respondents' family history of T2DM. The relationship between family history of T2DM and knowledge, attitude, and practice toward T2DM among medical students in the Universitas Sumatera Utara were analyzed using the Chi Square test, with SPSS version 24. RESULTS: From the 370 Universitas Sumatera Utara medical students were being respondents in this study, it was shown that good and poor knowledge scores toward T2DM were 50.8% and 49.2% respectively. The attitude scores were 53.5% and 46.5% respectively. The practice scores were 47.8% and 52.2% respectively. There were 197 students (53.2%) who have a family history of suffering from T2DM and 173 students (46.8%) did not have. The results of the analysis test between data showed that there was a significant relationship between a family history of T2DM with knowledge of T2DM (p = 0.002, RP = 1.921, 95% CI = 1.270-2.906), attitudes (p = 0.005, RP = 1.815, 95% CI = 1.200-2.745) and practice (p = 0.001, RP = 2.092, 95% CI = 1.380-3.173). CONCLUSION: In this study it is shown that the medical students have good knowledge and attitudes towards T2DM but it’s not in line with practice. A family history of T2DM is a factor that influences behavior, attitude, and practice towards T2DM in medical students at the Universitas Sumatera Utara.

It is generally accepted that the early detection of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is important to prevent the development of complications and comorbidities, as well as premature death. The onset of type 2 diabetes mellitus results from a complex interplay between genetic, environmental, and lifestyle risk factors. Our study aims to evaluate the joint effect of T2DM associated single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on the age of onset for T2DM in combination with conventional risk factors (such as sex, body mass index (BMI), and TG/HDL-C ratio) in the Hungarian population. This study includes 881 T2DM patients (Case population) and 1415 samples from the Hungarian general population (HG). Twenty-three SNPs were tested on how they are associated with the age of onset for T2DM in the Case population and 12 of them with a certified effect on the age of T2DM onset were chosen for an optimized genetic risk score (GRS) analysis. Testing the validity of the GRS model developed was carried out on the HG population. The GRS showed a significant association with the age of onset for T2DM (β = −0.454, p = 0.001) in the Case population, as well as among T2DM patients in the HG one (β = −0.999, p = 0.003) in the replication study. The higher the GRS, the earlier was the T2DM onset. Individuals with more than eight risk alleles will presumably be diabetic six and a half years earlier than those with less than four risk alleles. Our results suggest that there is a considerable genetic predisposition for the early onset of T2DM; therefore, in addition to conventional risk factors, GRS can be used as a tool for estimating the risk of the earlier onset of T2DM and stratifying populations at risk in order to define preventive interventions.
