Abstract
- Introduction: Indian type 2 diabetics (T2D) is known for poor disease control on which self-reported physical activity (SRPA) and optimum body composition have positive impact. We determined prevalence of SRPA and general/visceral obesity and its impact on HbA1c-based glycemia. Methodology: By a cross-sectional study conducted on 200 T2Ds in a private clinic, HbA1c-based glycemic status, WHO questionnaire-based SRPA, BMI-based general obesity, and bipolar bioelectrical impedance-based visceral obesity were evaluated. SRPA and obesity were compared and associated with glycaemic status keeping mean HbA1c as cutoff. Result: Mean age, male%, mean duration of T2D, mean BMI, mean HbA1c, and SRPA prevalence were 54 years, 42.5%, 4.82 years, 25.49, 8.69%, and 61.5%, respectively. Comparison of groups based on either SRPA or BMI (cutoff 25) showed better HbA1c with the presence of SRPA and BMI
