Obesity is one of the comorbidities widely occurred among type 2 diabetes patients. It is one of the most modifiable risk factors for the prevention of other comorbid conditions such as diabetic nephropathy and cardiovascular disease. The aim of this study was to recognize eating behaviour, physical activity, and other related factors, also their correlation with obesity as comorbidity among type 2 diabetes patients. Using cross-sectional design, data were collected from purposively selected 133 members of “PROLANIS” in Jatinegara Primary Health Care, East Jakarta. Food intake was assessed by 1x24 hours food recall and FFQ, physical activity by GPAQ. The result showed 63,9% of adult with type 2 diabetes were obese (BMI ≥25 kg/m2), fat intake was higher than recommendation (30,77±9,06%), but mean energy intake was insufficient compared to energy requirement (62,06±23,67%). The prevalence of obesity among adults with type 2 diabetes is found associated with nutrition knowledge, level of education, and length of suffering type 2 diabetes. Nutrition education is important to reduce the prevalence of obesity among adults with type 2 diabetes.

Abstract Background: Consumption of a varied diet reduces the risk of developing a deficiency or excess of any one nutrient. One of the three corner stones of diabetes management is diet and therefore, dietary diversity is key among diabetes patients. Objective: The objective of this study was to establish the impact of nutrition education on the dietary diversity scores (DDS) among type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: Kant et al method was used for scoring dietary diversity. Data were analyzed using the statistical package for social sciences (SPSS version 21). Pair sample t-test was used to compare total DDS after and before nutrition education. P< 0.05 was considered as statistically significant.Subjects: One hundred type 2 diabetic patients were randomly selected and divided into two groups of intervention and control (50 patients in each group) to participate in the study. Data were collected using a pre-tested questionnaire before and after intervention every after one month for a period of four months of intervention.Results: The average age of patients who participated in the study was 48 (40–51) years. Most of the patients were females (65.39%), compared to males (34.01%). At the end of the study period of four months, DDS in the control group decreased from 40.08% to 38.49% (p=0.064) while in the intervention group, DDS increased from 35.30 % to 54.20% (p<0.001). Conclusion: Dietary diversity increased after nutrition education among type 2 diabetes patients.Trial registration: The study was registered and approved on 17th April 2013 by the Research and Ethics committee of Mulago Hospital and Institutional Review Board of Mulago hospital (Protocol MREC 113).

Background: Obesity and type 2 diabetes constitute major public health issues in modern societies worldwide. These two forms frequently coexist, and statistics show that 60–90% of all patients with type 2 diabetes are or have been obese. Obesity is generally considered to be a strong risk factor for the development of type 2 diabetes mellitus in future.Objectives: This study aims to assess the prevalence of obesity among type 2 diabetes patients attending diabetic clinic in Nepalgunj Medical College Teaching Hospital.Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted at NGMCTH, kohalpur, Nepal during the period from October 2013 to March 2014. The present study comprised of a total of 385 type 2 diabetic subjects whose BMI was measured during the visit to the diabetic clinic. Respondents' height, weight, age, sex and duration of diabetes were taken as the study variable.Results: Out of total, 51.4% were female and 48.6% were male who attended the clinic. The mean age of the study population was 56.20±11.95 (95% CI; 54.47-57.92) of which 38% were overweight, 4.2% were obese and 55.8% had normal BMI. The proportion of overweight in total population is 37.1% where female type 2 diabetes proportion (41.4%) was comparatively higher than male(32.6%). 4.2 % of the total type 2 diabetes were obese and above(p=0.014).Conclusions: High prevalence of overweight and obesity in type 2 diabetics is associated with other serious complications. Ways to control prevent obesity and overweight should be stressed and made known to people of all ages in the population.Journal of Nepalgunj Medical College Vol.12(1) 2014: 25-28
