- Abstract
Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2) is a chronic pathology that has grown worldwide. If poorly controlled, it can cause several complications to the patient, thus compromising their quality of life. The present study aimed to estimate the prevalence and factors associated with type 2 Diabetes mellitus (DM2) in users of Primary Health Care (PHC). This is a cross-sectional study carried out from May to August 2019. The statistics comprised the calculation of the prevalence of DM2, and its 95% confidence interval (95% CI). To check the adjusted factors, gross and adjusted Prevalence Ratios (PR) were calculated. The sample consisted of 1,365 users, with a 9% prevalence of the outcome (CI95 8-11), which was higher among the elderly (PR = 2.21; CI95 1.50-3.26), hypertensive patients (PR = 3.02; CI95 1.90-4.81), with hypertriglyceridemia (PR = 2.38; CI95 1.67-3.38), polymedicates (PR = 2.91; CI95 1.82-4.67) and that did not practice physical activity (PR = 1.71; CI95 1.04-2.79) and lower, among those who did not engage in paid activity (PR = 0.39; CI95 0.22-0.70) and with the habit of researching on health on the internet (PR = 0.51; 95% CI 0.30-0.88).
