Abstract

Background

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of death and illness in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). However, research on CVD prevalence and risk factors in T2DM patients in Ethiopia is limited.

Objectives

This study aimed to assess the prevalence of CVD and its associated factors among T2DM patients in selected public hospitals in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.

Methods and materials

We conducted a cross-sectional study from February 15 to March 15, 2022, involving 317 participants selected via simple random sampling from Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital, Saint Paul’s Hospital, and Sheba Hospital. Data were collected using a structured questionnaire and analyzed with SPSS software version 24, employing both bivariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses.

Results

Of the 310 respondents, 54.5 % were female, and 42.6 % were aged 59 to 71 years. The study found a CVD prevalence of 25.5 %, with 31.6 % having coronary artery disease, 12.7 % peripheral artery disease, 8.9 % stroke, and 8.9 % heart failure. Significant associations with CVD were found for alcohol consumption, physical inactivity, hypertension, and obesity.

Conclusion and recommendations

This study reveals a high prevalence of CVD among T2DM patients in Addis Ababa. To enhance patient health, it is essential to promote weight reduction, regular physical activity, cessation of alcohol use, and effective hypertension management.

埃塞俄比亚亚的斯亚贝巴选定公立医院2型糖尿病患者心血管疾病患病率及其相关因素

背景：心血管疾病（CVD）是2型糖尿病（T2DM）患者死亡和患病的主要原因。然而，关于埃塞俄比亚2型糖尿病患者心血管疾病患病率和危险因素的研究有限。目的本研究旨在评估埃塞俄比亚亚的斯亚贝巴选定的公立医院2型糖尿病患者中心血管疾病的患病率及其相关因素。方法与材料我们于2022年2月15日至3月15日进行了横断面研究，通过简单随机抽样从提库尔安贝萨专科医院、圣保罗医院和示巴医院抽取了317名参与者。采用结构化问卷收集数据，采用SPSS软件24版进行分析，采用双变量和多变量logistic回归分析。结果310名调查对象中，女性占54.5%，年龄在59 ~ 71岁之间的占42.6%。研究发现心血管疾病患病率为25.5%，其中31.6%患有冠状动脉疾病，12.7%患有外周动脉疾病，8.9%患有中风，8.9%患有心力衰竭。发现饮酒、缺乏运动、高血压和肥胖与心血管疾病有显著关联。结论和建议本研究揭示了亚的斯亚贝巴2型糖尿病患者中心血管疾病的高患病率。为了增强患者的健康，必须促进减肥、定期体育活动、停止饮酒和有效的高血压管理。

期刊介绍： International Journal of Africa Nursing Sciences (IJANS) is an international scientific journal published by Elsevier. The broad-based journal was founded on two key tenets, i.e. to publish the most exciting research with respect to the subjects of Nursing and Midwifery in Africa, and secondly, to advance the international understanding and development of nursing and midwifery in Africa, both as a profession and as an academic discipline. The fully refereed journal provides a forum for all aspects of nursing and midwifery sciences, especially new trends and advances. The journal call for original research papers, systematic and scholarly review articles, and critical papers which will stimulate debate on research, policy, theory or philosophy of nursing as related to nursing and midwifery in Africa, technical reports, and short communications, and which will meet the journal''s high academic and ethical standards. Manuscripts of nursing practice, education, management, and research are encouraged. The journal values critical scholarly debate on issues that have strategic significance for educators, practitioners, leaders and policy-makers of nursing and midwifery in Africa. The journal publishes the highest quality scholarly contributions reflecting the diversity of nursing, and is also inviting international scholars who are engaged with nursing and midwifery in Africa to contribute to the journal. We will only publish work that demonstrates the use of rigorous methodology as well as by publishing papers that highlight the theoretical underpinnings of nursing and midwifery as it relates to the Africa context.
