Abstract

Aims

The aim was to determine food cravings and associated variables in patients with type 2 diabetes.

Methods

204 type 2 diabetes patients were enrolled in the cross-sectional study between February 16, 2024 and June 16, 2024. Data were collected face-to-face using personal information form, Food Cravings Scale and Diabetes Awareness and Acceptance Scale. Number, percentage, mean, standard deviation and minimum-maximum values, hierarchical regression analysis and pearson correlation test were used to analyze the data. The statistical significance level was assumed to be p < 0.05.

Results

The mean score on the food cravings scale was found to be 23.52 ± 19.44. Hierarchical regression analysis revealed that living alone, increased body mass index, alcohol consumption and hospitalization increased the food cravings in patients with type 2 diabetes. It was also found that the use of a diabetes-specific diet by participants, regular check-ups and high diabetes awareness and acceptance reduced the food cravings.

Conclusions

It has been shown that managing type 2 diabetes is a dynamic and multidimensional process that is influenced by the desire to eat, awareness of diabetes, knowledge and practices related to diabetes.

2型糖尿病患者对食物渴望的调查：层次回归分析

目的：目的是确定2型糖尿病患者的食物渴望和相关变量。方法：204例2型糖尿病患者于2024年2月16日至2024年6月16日进行横断面研究。采用个人信息表、食物渴望量表和糖尿病认知与接受量表面对面收集数据。采用数、百分比、均值、标准差、最小最大值、层次回归分析和pearson相关检验对数据进行分析。结果：食物渴望量表的平均得分为23.52 ± 19.44。分层回归分析显示，独居、体重指数增加、饮酒和住院治疗增加了2型糖尿病患者对食物的渴望。研究还发现，参与者采用针对糖尿病的饮食、定期检查、提高对糖尿病的认识和接受度，可以减少对食物的渴望。结论：研究表明，管理2型糖尿病是一个动态的多维过程，受饮食欲望、糖尿病意识、糖尿病相关知识和实践的影响。
