Abstract

Objective: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a chronic non-communicable endocrine disease that has a considerable impact on both the health and quality of life (QoL) of patients. This study aimed to investigate the sociodemographic factors associated with the quality of life among the Lebanese population with DM.

Methods: A cross-sectional study that enrolled 125 diabetic patients aged ≥18, was conducted between January and June of 2021. The validated Arabic version of the Audit of Diabetes-Dependent Quality of Life (ADDQoL) questionnaire is utilized by all patients to measure the quality of life (QoL). A logistic regression was then performed.

Results: The life domains "freedom to eat" and "freedom to drink", were the most negatively impacted by diabetes. According to the multivariate analysis monthly income OR 3.4, 95 % CIs 1.25 -9.6, P = 0.017, educational level (OR) 0.2, 95 % CIs 0.07 -0.89, HbA1c (OR) 7, 95 % CIs 1.5 -32.35, and FBG [odds ratio (OR) 1.01, 95 % (CIs) 1.004 -1.021, P = 0.005] were independently associated with impaired QOL.

Conclusion: The study showed that diabetes generally had a negative impact on QoL. The findings also suggest that certain sociodemographic factors, such as monthly income and educational level along with clinical parameters like HbA1c, might be associated with a lower quality of life among Lebanese diabetic patients.

黎巴嫩糖尿病患者与生活质量相关的社会人口统计学和生活方式特征：一项横断面研究。

目的：糖尿病（DM）是一种慢性非传染性内分泌疾病，对患者的健康和生活质量有很大影响。本研究旨在调查与黎巴嫩糖尿病患者生活质量相关的社会人口学因素。方法：2021年1月至6月，对125名年龄≥18岁的糖尿病患者进行了横断面研究。所有患者都使用经验证的阿拉伯语版糖尿病依赖性生活质量审计问卷（ADDQoL）来衡量生活质量。然后进行逻辑回归。结果：糖尿病对生活领域“饮食自由”和“饮酒自由”的负面影响最大。根据多变量分析，月收入OR 3.4，95%CI 1.25-9.6，P=0.017，教育水平（OR）0.2，95%CI 0.07-0.89，HbA1c（OR）7，95%CI 1.5-32.35，FBG[比值比（OR）1.01，95%（CI）1.004-1.021，P=0.005]与生活质量受损独立相关。结论：研究表明，糖尿病通常对生活质量产生负面影响。研究结果还表明，某些社会人口因素，如月收入和教育水平，以及HbA1c等临床参数，可能与黎巴嫩糖尿病患者的生活质量较低有关。
