Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a major global health threat worldwide. Obesity and overweight is major risk factor for its development. This study aimed to assess the prevalence and associated factors of overweight/obesity among diabetic outpatients at Jimma Medical Center, Southwest Ethiopia.
Hospital-based, cross-sectional study was conducted during March 02 to June 30, 2020 among systematically selected participants at the study area. Bivariable and multivariable binary logistic regression were used to identify the factors associated with outcome variable. Variables with a p value of<0.25 on bivariable logistic regression were considered candidates for multivariable regression. On multivariable logistic regression variables with p-value of <0.05 were considered as significantly associated with overweight/obesity.
A total of 334 participants with mean age of 51.42 ± 13.33 years were included in the study. The prevalence of overweight/obesity among the study population was 36.2%. According to multivariable logistic regression analysis, residence (AOR = 1.8, 95%CI:1, 3), higher income tercile (AOR = 3.4, 95%CI:1.8, 6.7), family history of overweight and obesity (AOR = 1.9, 95%CI:1.1,3.4), comorbid hypertension (AOR = 2.4, 95%CI:1.4,4) and physical inactivity (AOR = 2.1, 95%CI:1.2,3.5) were significantly associated with overweight/obesity.
There was a high prevalence of overweight/obesity among study participants. It was found that higher income tercile, residence, family history of overweight and obesity, comorbid hypertension and physical inactivity were significantly associated with overweight/obesity.
2型糖尿病是全球主要的健康威胁。肥胖和超重是其发病的主要危险因素。本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚西南部吉马医疗中心糖尿病门诊患者中超重/肥胖的患病率及相关因素。
2020年3月2日至6月30日，在研究区域对系统选取的参与者进行了一项基于医院的横断面研究。采用双变量和多变量二元逻辑回归来确定与结局变量相关的因素。双变量逻辑回归中p值<0.25的变量被视为多变量回归的候选变量。在多变量逻辑回归中，p值<0.05的变量被认为与超重/肥胖显著相关。
共有334名平均年龄为51.42±13.33岁的参与者纳入研究。研究人群中超重/肥胖的患病率为36.2%。根据多变量逻辑回归分析，居住地（调整后比值比[AOR]=1.8，95%置信区间[CI]：1.3）、收入三分位数较高（AOR=3.4，95%CI：1.8，6.7）、超重和肥胖家族史（AOR=1.9，95%CI：1.1，3.4）、合并高血压（AOR=2.4，95%CI：1.4，4）和身体活动不足（AOR=2.1，95%CI：1.2，3.5）与超重/肥胖显著相关。
研究参与者中超重/肥胖的患病率较高。发现收入三分位数较高、居住地、超重和肥胖家族史、合并高血压和身体活动不足与超重/肥胖显著相关。
