          Abstract

          Fundamento: la población canaria sufre la mayor mortalidad por diabetes tipo 2 (DM2) en España. El objetivo de este estudio es conocer el estilo de vida de las personas diabéticas del archipiélago y su adherencia al tratamiento, así como la DM2 desconocida. Métodos: estudio transversal de 6.729 personas de la población general participantes en la cohorte "CDC de Canarias" (edad 18-75 años). Se obtuvieron sus antecedentes médicos, dieta, actividad física, medicamentos consumidos, tabaco, etc. Resultados: la prevalencia de DM2 fue 12% en varones y 10% en mujeres (p=0,005). El 22% de varones y 9% de mujeres desconocían su enfermedad (p < 0,001). Sumando DM2 desconocida, DM2 no tratada e incumplimiento terapéutico, el 48% de los hombres y 28% en mujeres no seguían tratamiento correcto. Los varones diabéticos eran más obesos que los no diabéticos (45 versus 25%; p < 0,001) pero no presentaban diferencias en tabaquismo (28%; IC95%=23-33) o sedentarismo (62%; IC95%=56-68). Las mujeres diabéticas también eran más obesas (54 versus 27%; p < 0,001) y, aunque fumaban menos (11 versus 22%; p < 0,001), eran igual de sedentarias (75%; IC95%=70-79). La ingesta calórica era menor en quienes sufrían DM2 (p < 0,001), pero el 93% (IC95%=91-95) superaba el consumo recomendado de grasas saturadas y el 69% (IC95%=65-72) padecía síndrome metabólico. Conclusiones: la población diabética en Canarias es sedentaria y obesa, muestra un consumo alto de grasas saturadas y gran prevalencia de síndrome metabólico. El porcentaje que sigue tratamiento regular es muy bajo, sobretodo en varones, que además mantienen el tabaquismo.

          Background: The Canary Islands population experiences the highest type 2 diabetes (DM2) mortality in Spain. We studied lifestyle, unknown DM2 and treatment adherence in diabetics of these islands. Methods: cross-sectional study of 6729 subjects from the general population (age 18-75) that participate in the cohort study "CDC of the Canary Islands". We found out their medical problems, diet, physical activity, medications, smoking, etc. Results: Prevalence of DM2 was 12% in men and 10% in women (p=0.005). The disease was unknown in 22% of men and 9% of women (p < 0.001). Considering unknown DM2, lack of treatment and lack of adherence, 48% of men and 28% of women did not follow a regular treatment. Diabetics' men prevalences of smoking (28%; CI95%=23-33) and sedentariness (62%; CI95%=56-68) were similar to non diabetic men, but obesity was more frequent in diabetics (45 versus 25%; p < 0.001). Diabetics women showed a higher obesity (54 versus 27%; p < 0.001) and a lower smoking prevalence (11 versus 22%; p < 0,001) than non diabetics, but they presented a similar sedentariness (75%; CI95%=70-79). In both sexes, energy intake was lower in diabetics (p < 0.001), but 93% of them (CI95%=91-95) showed a high consumption of calories from saturated fat and 69% (CI95%=65-72) presented metabolic syndrome. Conclusions: The Canarian diabetics are a sedentary and obese population that show a high consumption of saturated fats and high prevalence of metabolic syndrome. The proportion of them following regular treatment is low, specially in diabetic men that, in addition, still smoke.

          Meta-analysis of the effect of structured exercise training on cardiorespiratory fitness in Type 2 diabetes mellitus.

          Low cardiorespiratory fitness is a powerful and independent predictor of mortality in people with diabetes. Several studies have examined the effects of exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness in Type 2 diabetic individuals. However, these studies had relatively small sample sizes and highly variable results. Therefore the aim of this study was to systematically review and quantify the effects of exercise on cardiorespiratory fitness in Type 2 diabetic individuals. MEDLINE, EMBASE, and four other databases were searched up to March 2002 for randomized, controlled trials evaluating effects of structured aerobic exercise interventions of 8 weeks or more on cardiorespiratory fitness in adults with Type 2 diabetes. Cardiorespiratory fitness was defined as maximal oxygen uptake (VO(2max)) during a maximal exercise test. Seven studies, presenting data for nine randomized trials comparing exercise and control groups (overall n=266), met the inclusion criteria. Mean exercise characteristics were as follows: 3.4 sessions per week, 49 min per session for 20 weeks. Exercise intensity ranged from 50% to 75% of VO(2max). There was an 11.8% increase in VO(2max) in the exercise group and a 1.0% decrease in the control group (post intervention standardized mean difference =0.53, p<0.003). Studies with higher exercise intensities tended to produce larger improvements in VO(2max). Exercise intensity predicted post-intervention weighted mean difference in HbA(1c) (r=-0.91, p=0.002) to a larger extent than did exercise volume (r=-0.46, p=0.26). Regular exercise has a statistically and clinically significant effect on VO(2max) in Type 2 diabetic individuals. Higher intensity exercise could have additional benefits on cardiorespiratory fitness and HbA(1c).

            Achievement of American Diabetes Association clinical practice recommendations among U.S. adults with diabetes, 1999-2002: the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey.

            To estimate the proportion of U.S. adults with diabetes who meet American Diabetes Association (ADA) clinical practice recommendations. Using data from the 1999-2002 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, 998 adults aged >/=18 years with self-reported diabetes were identified. The proportion of adults with diabetes meeting ADA recommendations for HbA(1c) (A1C), HDL cholesterol, LDL cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure, renal function, nutrient intake, smoking, pneumococcal vaccination, and physical activity was estimated. Among U.S. adults with diabetes in 1999-2002, 49.8% had A1C 81% of the sample reported not smoking at the time of the exam, only 38.2% reported ever having had a pneumococcal immunization, and 28.2% reported getting the recommended level of physical activity. Race, age, duration of diabetes, and education affected achievement of ADA recommendations. Achievement of ADA clinical practice recommendations is far from adequate in U.S. adults with diabetes.

              Predictors of adherence to diabetes medications: the role of disease and medication beliefs.

              Despite the effectiveness of drug therapy in diabetes management high rates of poor adherence persist. The purpose of this study was to identify potentially modifiable patient disease and medication beliefs associated with poor medication adherence among people with diabetes. A cohort of patients with diabetes was recruited from an urban primary-care clinic in New York City. Patients were interviewed in English or Spanish about: disease beliefs, medication beliefs, regimen complexity, diabetes knowledge, depression, self-efficacy, and medication adherence (Morisky scale). Logistic regression was used to identify multivariate predictors of poor medication adherence (Morisky > 1). Patients (n = 151) had diabetes for an average of 13 years with a mean HgA1C of 7.6 (SD 1.7). One-in-four (28%) were poor adherers to their diabetes medicines. In multivariate analyses, predictors of poor medication adherence were: believing you have diabetes only when your sugar is high (OR = 7.4;2-27.2), saying there was no need to take medicine when the glucose was normal (OR = 3.5;0.9-13.7), worrying about side-effects of diabetes medicines (OR = 3.3;1.3-8.7), lack of self-confidence in controlling diabetes (OR = 2.8;1.1-7.1), and feeling medicines are hard to take (OR = 14.0;4.4-44.6). Disease and medication beliefs inconsistent with a chronic disease model of diabetes were significant predictors of poor medication adherence. These suboptimal beliefs are potentially modifiable and are logical targets for educational interventions to improve diabetes self-management.
