A cross sectional study was carried out in six educational institutes. A total of 100 working women were selected as study population. During the two-month study period, Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) was estimated to identify the diabetics and the Impaired Glucose Tolerance (IGT). Information from the study population was collected through pre-tested questionnaire using several anthropometric measurements.
Out of 100 women, 24 were having FBS compatible with IGT or diabetes. The incidence was highest in 46 to 55 yr age group. 75% of women with diabetes or IGT were in higher income group. Body Mass Index was more than 25 kg/m(2) in maximum (75%) women having diabetes or IGT. 92% women with diabetes or IGT had their Waist Hip Ratio >/=0.85. Moreover, orientation towards healthy life style modification to control diabetes and its prevention was poor among the study population.
Prevalence of diabetes and IGT was higher among urban working women and is increasing with increase in age. Obesity plays a major role in development of Type 2 diabetes. Several long- and short-term steps should be taken for promotion of healthy life style modifications to prevent diabetes and emergence of its complications.
1）评估职业女性的总体健康状况和人体测量学参数。2）确定她们中2型糖尿病的患病率。3）评估与糖尿病发生相关的危险因素。4）对她们进行生活方式调整方面的教育。
在六所教育机构开展了一项横断面研究。共选取100名职业女性作为研究对象。在为期两个月的研究期间，通过测定空腹血糖（FBS）来确定糖尿病患者和糖耐量受损（IGT）者。通过使用多种人体测量方法的预测试问卷收集研究对象的信息。
100名女性中，有24人的空腹血糖符合糖耐量受损或糖尿病的标准。发病率在46至55岁年龄组中最高。75%的糖尿病或糖耐量受损女性属于高收入群体。在患有糖尿病或糖耐量受损的女性中，最大比例（75%）的人的体重指数超过25kg/m²。92%的糖尿病或糖耐量受损女性的腰臀比≥0.85。此外，研究对象中对于通过改变健康生活方式来控制糖尿病及其预防的认知较差。
城市职业女性中糖尿病和糖耐量受损的患病率较高，且随年龄增长而增加。肥胖在2型糖尿病的发生中起主要作用。应采取若干长期和短期措施来促进健康生活方式的改变，以预防糖尿病及其并发症的出现。
