Abstract Background Diabetes mellitus causes multiple medical, psychological and sexual problems in both men and women. Sexual dysfunction is one of those problems that lead to a strong social and psychological problem which adversely affect marital relation and treatment outcome. The issue has not been well studied in Ethiopia; therefore, this study aimed to evaluate the prevalence and factors related to sexual dysfunction in adult patients with diabetes mellitus. Methods Facility-based cross-sectional study was conducted among adults with diabetes mellitus on follow-up at diabetic clinics of Mizan-Tepi University Teaching Hospital and Tepi General Hospital. A consecutive sampling technique was employed to select 423 study participants, and data were collected through interviewer-administered questionnaire and patients’ medical chart review. Changes in Sexual Functioning Questionnaire-fourteen items (CSFQ-14) was used to measure sexual dysfunction. Descriptive statistics and binary logistic regression analyses were performed. Two tail tests at α of less 0.05 were used as a level of significance. Results A total of 398 diabetic patients were interviewed, with a 94% response rate. The prevalence of sexual dysfunction was 53.3%. Age of above 41 years (AOR: 3.98, 95% CI 2.32–6.85), lack of formal education (AOR: 3.20, 95% CI 1.60–6.39), divorced or widowed (AOR: 5.28, 95% CI 2.35–11.86), type 2 DM (AOR: 4.52, 95% CI 2.17–9.42), depression (AOR: 4.05, 95% CI 2.32–7.10), complications or co-morbidity (AOR: 2.05, 95% CI 1.18–3.58), and not doing physical activity (AOR: 1.62, 95% CI; 1.47–1.77) were significantly associated with sexual dysfunction among diabetes patients. Conclusions The prevalence of sexual dysfunction was as high as reports from other studies. Therefore, health care providers should include the issue of sexual health in their routine discussions with adult diabetes mellitus patients. Presence of depression, not doing physical activity and having complications or co-morbidity are modifiable factors associated with sexual dysfunction; therefore, they should be attended during care addressing sexual dysfunction.

Diabetic patients have a 1,5 to 3 times higher risk of developing hypertension compared to non-diabetics. The proportion of hypertension in Indonesia in patients with DM is 51.8%. This study aims to determine the relationship between sodium and potassium intake, nutritional status, and physical activity with the incidence of blood pressure in DM patients in Pesanggrahan District Health Center. The study design used was cross-sectional, with a sample of 99 patients obtained from the purposive sampling method. The results showed that the average patient was 57 years old, female, and had been suffering from diabetes for five years. The average sodium and potassium intake are 2401 mg and 1460 mg respectively. The proportion of diabetic patients at the Pesanggrahan District Health Center who had high blood pressure was 83,8% and 78,8% of patients have central obesity, while 75,8% fall into the category of low physical activity. Based on the chi-square test, there is a significant relationship (p=0,000) between sodium intake, nutritional status, and physical activity with systolic blood pressure. There was a significant relationship between sodium intake, nutritional status, and physical activity with diastolic blood pressure (p= 0,000, 0,023, and 0,000).  Keywords: blood pressure, diabetes mellitus, nutrient intake, nutritional status, physical activity

Abstract: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a metabolic disease caused by insulin resistance and beta cell dysfunction. It is ranked as the seventh of top 10 causes of death worldwide, and the highest prevalence of cases is T2DM. The dominant lifestyle that triggers T2DM is diet and physical inactivity. This study was aimed to determine whether lifestyle was a risk factor of T2DM. This was a literature review study using two databases, namely Pubmed and Google Scholar. The keywords used were "lifestyle risk factors and type 2 diabetes mellitus". There were 10 literatures obtained based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results showed that lifestyle such as unhealthy eating pattern and less physical activity significantly influence the risk factors of T2DM. In conclusion, lifestyles such as unhealthy foods and less physical activity are at high risk of suffering from T2DM.Keywords: risk factors, lifestyle, type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM)  Abstrak: Diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2) merupakan penyakit metabolisme yang disebabkan karena resistensi insulin dan disfungsi sel beta pankreas. DM berada diperingkat ke tujuh sebagai 10 penyakit penyebab kematian di dunia, denganDMT2 sebagai prevalensi kasus tertinggi. Pola hidup yang dominan menjadi pencetus DMT2 ialah pola makan dan aktivitas fisik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui gaya hidup sebagai faktor risiko DMT2. Jenis penelitian ialah literature review. Pencarian data menggunakan dua database yaitu Pubmed dan Google Scholar. Dengan kata kunci yaitu “faktor risiko gaya hidup dan diabetes melitus tipe 2”. Setelah diseleksi, didapatkan 10 literatur berdasarkan kriteria inklusi dan eksklusi. Hasil penelitian mendapatkan bahwa gaya hidup seperti pola makan yang tidak sehat dan pola aktivitas fisik kurang secara bermakna berpengaruh terhadap terjadinya faktor risiko DMT2. Simpulan penelitian ini ialah gaya hidup dengan mengonsumsi makanan tidak sehat dan aktivitas fisik yang kurang memiliki risiko tinggi mengalami DMT2.Kata kunci: faktor risiko, gaya hidup, diabetes melitus tipe 2 (DMT2)

Background: Non-infectious disease (NID) has become a public health problem both globally, regionally, nasionally, and locally. One of NID that takes a lot of attention is diabetes mellitus (DM). Risk of complication is higher due to lack of attention to lifestyle including diet. The concept of the glycemic index classifies carbohydrate is considered better in controlling blood sugar. However, some studies say otherwise. Therefore, research needs to be done by combining carbohydrate quantity concept (glycemic load) and glycemic indexObjective: To identify the relationship between estimated dietary glycemic index and glycemic load with blood sugar control, as well as to identify other factors associated with glycemic control of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitusMethod: This is an observational study with cross-sectional design. The population study were all outpatients with type 2 diabetes mellitus in Dr.Sardjito hospital Yogyakarta in 2014. Sampling method using a consecutive sampling with sample size of 79 people. Interviews regarding the identity of the respondents through questionnaires, physical activity (IPAQ), and semi-quantitative food frequency (SQFFQ). Blood sugar control (HbA1C) obtained from respondent’s medical record. The data were processed using univariable analysis (descriptive), bivariate (chi-square), and multivariate (GLM)Results: Most respondents were blood sugar uncontrolled (84,81%). Average of dietary GI and GL was 63,26±3,23 and 127,65±43,02. Bivariate test showed that the dietary GI and GL each has a RP value 1,023 and 1,002, and statistically significant (p<0,05) with HbA1C. The prevalence of uncontrolled blood sugar 4,18 times greater in respondents who doesn’t have appropriate eating schedule. Duration of diabetes, nutritional status, physical activity, and education level did not significantly influence HbA1C (p>0,05)Conclusion: There is a relationship between dietary GI, GL, and eating schedule with blood sugar control (HbA1C), but there was no correlation between duration of diabetes, nutritional status, physical activity, and education level with blood sugar control (HbA1C)

Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM), a chronic metabolic disease prevalent in adults, is also prevalent amongst children, adolescents and young adults. On understanding the molecular basis of diabetes, a significant association is found between telomere length (TL) and type 2 DM.Aim: The aim of the study was to review the available evidence on effect of physical activity and yoga on DM including their effect on TL.Setting: The study was conducted in Bangalore.Method: A number of databases such as Google Scholar, PubMed and Cochrane Review were searched for relevant articles using keywords such as ’diabetes’, ‘type 2 DM’, ‘physical activity’, ‘yoga’, ‘TL’ and ‘telomerase activity’. All types of articles were included for the study, such as randomised controlled trial, systematic reviews, literature review and pilot study. Non-English articles were excluded from the study.Results: Studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of yoga and physical exercise in type 2 DM in various ways, such as reducing fasting blood glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin; improving lipid profile, blood pressure and waist-to-hip ratio; reducing inflammatory, oxidative and psychological stress markers; and improving the quality of life of patients. However, limited information is available on the effect of these interventions on TL in type 2 DM and mechanisms involved.Conclusion: Recent studies have shown positive effects of yoga and physical activity on TL. However, there is a dearth of good-quality studies evaluating the effects of yoga on TL in type 2 DM. Future studies need to be conducted with standard treatment protocols, long-term follow-up, appropriate control groups and large sample size.
