Resumen
HEREDIA-MORALES, Mariel y GALLEGOS CABRIALES, Esther C. Risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus and its determinants. Enferm. glob. [online]. 2022, vol.21, n.65, pp.179-202. Epub 28-Mar-2022. ISSN 1695-6141. https://dx.doi.org/10.6018/eglobal.482971.
Objective:
Describe the relationship between social determinants of health and risk of type 2 diabetes mellitus in Mexican population.
Methods:
This was a cross-sectional descriptive correlational study of a sample of 256 individuals from a rural community in Sinaloa, Mexico. Data collection was carried out from October 2020 to February 2021. A snowball non-probability sampling method was used. The Instruments used were the International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), short version, the IPAQ-A for adults, the IPAQ-C for children, and a sociodemographic, anthropometric, and clinical data sheet.
Results:
The most frequent risk indicators for T2DM for adults are hypertension (81.7%) and overweight/obesity (68.6%); in children, it was overweight/obesity (34.9%). The risk of T2DM increased according to age (r = .560, p < .01) but decreased as education level increased (r = −.127, p < .05)
Conclusions:
The approach to T2DM risk factors from the perspective of social determinants of health allows strategic healthcare planning that considers the contextual factors associated with a lifestyle that reinforces the actions of healthcare providers.
