Abstract

Background: In Ethiopia, there is little evidence on the factors contributing to poor glycaemic control. This study aimed to identify determinants of poor glycaemic control among type 2 diabetes in Dire Dawa City, Eastern Ethiopia.

Methods: A facility-based unmatched case-control study was conducted among type 2 diabetes mellitus patients in follow-up clinics. Cases were people with glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c) ≥7%, while those with HbA1c <7% were controls. A total of 190 patients were recruited in chronic follow-up diabetic clinics. The data were collected using structured questionnaire interviews and extracted from medical charts and entered into EpiData (EpiData Association, Odense, Denmark) and exported to Stata version 16.1 (StataCorp, College Station, TX, USA) for analysis. A binary logistic regression model was fitted to identify the determinants of poor glycaemic control.

Results: The study showed that being female (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] 2.73 [95% confidence interval {CI} 1.10 to 6.79]), a smoker (AOR 14.85 [95% CI 5.25 to 42.88]), blood glucose monitoring ≤3 times per week (AOR 4.87 [95% CI 1.42 to 16.71]), overweight (AOR 4.96 [95% CI 1.82 to 13.52]) or obese (AOR 5.19 [95% CI 1.76 to 15.56]), ≥10 y on treatment (AOR 3.56 [95% CI 1.17 to 10.82]), having coronary artery disease (AOR 2.47 [95% CI 1.01 to 6.03]) and poor adherence to diabetic medication (AOR 0.24 [95% CI 0.10 to 0.63]) were found to be predictors of poor glycaemic control.

Conclusions: Smoking, overweight or obese, poor medication adherence and blood glucose levels lead to poor glycaemic control. This study shows the benefits of quitting smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, adhering to medication and monitoring blood glucose levels.

背景:在埃塞俄比亚,有关导致血糖控制不良的因素的证据很少。本研究旨在确定埃塞俄比亚东部迪雷达瓦市 2 型糖尿病患者血糖控制不佳的决定因素:方法:在随访诊所的 2 型糖尿病患者中开展了一项基于设施的非匹配病例对照研究。病例为糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)≥7% 的患者,而糖化血红蛋白(HbA1c)≥7% 的患者为病例:研究显示,女性(调整后的几率比 [AOR] 2.73 [95% 置信区间 {CI} 1.10 至 6.79])、吸烟者(AOR 14.85 [95% CI 5.25 至 42.88])、每周血糖监测次数≤3 次(AOR 4.87 [95% CI 1.42 至 16.71])、超重(AOR 4.96 [95% CI 1.82 至 13.52])或肥胖(AOR 5.19 [95% CI 1.76 to 15.56])、治疗时间≥10 年(AOR 3.56 [95% CI 1.17 to 10.82])、患有冠状动脉疾病(AOR 2.47 [95% CI 1.01 to 6.03])和糖尿病药物治疗依从性差(AOR 0.24 [95% CI 0.10 to 0.63])是血糖控制不良的预测因素:结论:吸烟、超重或肥胖、服药依从性差和血糖水平导致血糖控制不佳。这项研究显示了戒烟、保持健康体重、坚持服药和监测血糖水平的益处。
