সংক্ষিপ্ত: | Introduction: Worldwide, and including Mexico, overweight, obesity, and diabetes are priority public health problems, since the combination of these conditions increases the risk of microvascular and macrovascular complications. Objective: To establish the prevalence of overweight and obesity when comparing sex and sociodemographic characteristics in adults with type 2 diabetes in the period from August to December 2019 in health hospitals in northern Sinaloa, Mexico. Methodology: Cross-sectional descriptive study in 4 health centers in the municipality of Ahome, El Fuerte, and Guasave, Sinaloa, Mexico non-probabilistic sample of 556 adults aged 20 years and older, men and women with a year or more of diagnosis of type 2 diabetes, all signed informed consent, however, pregnant women were excluded. A sociodemographic data questionnaire, weight, height and waist circumference measurements were used. Results: 57 % were women, mean age was 50.4, average diagnosis of diabetes was 7.1 years. The combined prevalence of overweight and obesity was 82 %. There was a difference between patients living in rural and urban areas p= .01, those who had a partner had a higher prevalence of overweight and obesity compared to single patients 23.9 % vs. 57.8. 85.4 % showed abdominal obesity. Conclusion: The prevalence of overweight and obesity was higher than reported nationally; strategies are required for follow-up and weight control in patients with type 2 diabetes who receive health care in first level health care units. |
