Diabetic Mellitus causes many complications and profoundly affects patients’ lives, impacting their physical, psychological, and social well being. These complications are debilitating and significantly impair their quality of life. However, little is known about the quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus in West Java Province, Indonesia, a gap addressed by this study. A cross-sectional survey was conducted in a sample of 73 adult diabetes patients in the outpatient department of a general public hospital in West Java. The survey questionnaire included demographic data and the World Health Organisation (WHO) quality of life markers. The results indicate that of of 73 patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus agreed to join this study, 76.7% were age over 45 years old and 68% were female. The majority of the patients with type 2 diabetic mellitus reported a poor quality of life in 3 domains, physical domain (64.4%), psychological domain (53.4%), and environmental domain (52.1%). The social domain seems more favourable, with 54.8% of respondents reporting a good quality of life. This study indicates the importance of achieving better disease management to improve patient’ quality of life.   Keywords: Type 2 diabetic mellitus, quality of life, WHOQOL-BREF

<p>The aim of this research is to analyze the role of daily stress, optimsm and self regulation  toward the quality of life of type 2 individual with diabetic mellitus. The hypothesis of this research are: 1). There is a negative relationship between daily stress and quality of life; 2). Optimsm as moderate relation between daily stress and quality of life; 3). Autonom self regulation as moderate relation between daily stress and quality of life; 4). Controlled self regulation as mediator relation daily stress and quality of life. Research Methodology: The research is conducted among individuals who were diagnosed with type 2 diabetic mellitus in Sardjito Hospital Yogyakarta. There are 64 subjects who completed the research tools (daily stress, optimism, self regulation and quality of life scale) started from January 4th– February 12 2010. The research shows that there is a  negative relation between daily stress and quality of life (r = 0,265; F = 22,304; p = 0,000; p &lt; 0,01; significant). The result of moderate regression analysis shows optimsm is not moderate variable, but autonom self regulation is moderate variable (β = 0,004; p &lt; 0,001; significant). The result of path analysis shows that controlled self regulation is mediator relation of daily stress and quality of life (p = 0,045; p &lt; 0,05; significant). There is a negative significant relation between daily stress and quality of life. Optimism is not significant as moderate variable relation between daily stress and quality of life. Autonom regulation is significant as moderate relation between daily stress and quality of life. Controlled self regulation is significant as mediator relation of daily stress and quality of life.</p><p> </p>

Abstract Background and aims Painful polyneuropathy (PPN) is a disabling complication of diabetes. This study aims to determine its prevalence and relationship with Quality of Life (QoL) in a nationwide prospective cohort of incident recently diagnosed Danish type 2 diabetic patients. Methods We sent a detailed questionnaire on neuropathy, pain and QoL to 6726 patients prospectively enrolled from general practitioners and hospital specialist outpatient clinics into the Danish Centre for Strategic Research in Type 2 Diabetes (DD2) cohort. Patients who reported pain in both feet and a score ≥3 on the Douleur Neuropathique (DN4) questionnaire were considered to have possible PPN. QoL and pain intensity were measured on a numeric rating scale (NRS, 0–10). The Michigan Neuropathy Screening Instrument (MNSI) was used to assess neuropathy. Results A total of 5371 (79.8%) returned a complete questionnaire. 848 (15.8%) recently diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients reported pain in both feet. Of the 619 patients with pain who completed the DN4 questionnaire, 404 (65.2%) had a DN4 score ≥ 3, corresponding to a prevalence in the total population of possible PPN of 10.3%. Mean pain intensity was 5.2 (SD 2.2) and 89% had a MNSI score ≥ 3. Patients with possible PPN had a substantially lower QoL score than those without PPN (median QoL score 6 versus 8 (p < 0.001)), also when correcting for MNSI score. Conclusions Ten percent of newly diagnosed type 2 diabetic patients in Denmark had possible PPN. Patients with PPN had lower QoL than patients without PPN.
