Background: Dyslipidemia is highly prevalent in Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM). It plays a major role in the pathogenesis for diabetic complications. This study intends to exemplify the pattern of dyslipidemia prevalent in T2DM patients attending tertiary care centre of Eastern Nepal. Material and methods: This is a hospital based cross-sectional study conducted in the T2DM patients visiting the routine biochemistry laboratory for their routine blood investigations. 226 patients were included who fulfilled the inclusion criteria. Biochemical parameters were analyzed in routine biochemistry laboratory in cobas c311 autoanalyzer. Results: Out of the 226 T2DM patients, 51% were female and 49% were male respectively. The mean age group was 54.15 ± 12.62 years. Mean value of, HbA1c level, total cholesterol, TG, HDL and LDL was 8.16 ± 2.59 %, 289.04 ± 47.83, 297.77 ± 119.64, 35.62 ± 12.64 140.88 ± 40.58 respectively. HbA1c was significantly correlated with the lipid profile in T2DM patients (p < 0.05). Conclusion: The findings from the present study depicts that the prevalence of dyslipidemia is higher in T2DM in our centre with hypertriglyceridemia being the major type of dyslipidemia in these patients. In addition, male exhibited higher rate of dyslipidemia compare to their female counterparts respectively.

To analyze the correlation between functional health literacy (FHL) and self-efficacy (SE) in people with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. Cross-sectional study was conducted among September and October 2019, with 196 people with type 2 diabetes. Data were collected using the Functional Literacy in Health instrument (B-TOFHLA) and the Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale for Patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (DMSES). Bivariate analysis was used to verify the relationship among the constructs. Most diabetics showed an average B-TOFHLA score of 74.75, considered adequate, and self-efficacy of 4.07, high. The association between SE and FHL in the bivariate analysis found no statistical significance ( p > .05), in the same sense as the B-TOFHLA score and the DMSES domains ( p > .05). Constructs were not related to each other in terms of skills arising from judgments and decisions with motivational confidence by the investigated audience.

ABSTRACT Objective: to investigate the association between resilience and sociodemographic variables and the health of people with chronic kidney disease and / or type 2 diabetes mellitus. Method: a cross-sectional observational study performed with 603 people with chronic kidney disease and / or type 2 diabetes mellitus. A tool to collect socio-demographic and health data and the Resilience Scale developed by Connor and Davidson were applied. A descriptive and multivariate analysis was performed. Results: the study participants had on average 61 years old (SD= 13.2), with a stable union (52.24%), religion (96.7%), retired (49.09%), with primary education (65%) and income up to three minimum wages. Participants with kidney disease showed less resilience than people with diabetes. Conclusion: the type of chronic illness, disease duration, body mass index and religious beliefs influenced the resilience of the study participants.
