Retrospective study of lifestyle and incidence of Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus at Arcamanik Health Center Bandung City

Abstract

Diabetes mellitus affected 1.8 percent of people in West Java Province, with an incidence rate of 4,761 cases in the city of Bandung. The purpose of this study was to look at the effects of body mass index, nutrition, and physical activity on the occurrence of type 2 diabetes mellitus. An analytical study with a control case design was employed in the investigation. The study was carried out in the Arcamanik Health Center’s working area. In this study, the case population consisted of all type 2 diabetes patients, whereas the control group consisted of all individuals who did not have diabetes mellitus. The sample size was 100 people. The chi-square test is used to analyse data. Body mass index was found to be connected with the incidence of type 2 diabetes (p =0.013), diet was found to be associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes (p=0.003), and physical activity was found to be associated with the incidence of type 2 diabetes (p=0.016). Body mass index, nutrition, and physical activity are all risk factors for type 2 diabetes. Obese persons must improve their physical activity, maintain their food, and lose weight to avoid a rise in the prevalence of type 2 diabetes.
