Abstract
Aims: To identify factors associated with nutritional status of inpatients with type 2 diabetes. Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted on 97 inpatients with type 2 diabetes at the Department of Endocrinology and Respiratory, Hanoi Medical University Hospital, in 2020. Results: The rates of overweight-obesity and abdominal obesity were 22.7% and 55.7%, respectively. The patients with secondary education or less had a 3.2 times and 10.6 times more likely to be overweight-obese and abdominal obesity, respectively, compared with the patients with higher education. Women were 2.8 times more likely to have abdominal obesity than men. Patients with physical inactivity or infrequent physical activity had a 2.5 times more likely to have abdominal obesity compared with patients with frequent physical activity. Patients who abuse alcohol were 3.7 times more likely to be overweight -obese than those who did not abuse alcohol. Conclusion: High rates of overweight-obesity and abdominal obesity were found in inpatients with type 2 diabetes in the Department of Endocrinology and Respiratory. Education level and alcohol abuse were significantly associated with overweight-obesity. Gender, education level, and physical activity level were factors associated with abdominal obesity in patients with type 2 diabetes.
