Description

Aim: The aim of the present study was to assess the association between family history with diabetes and pre-diabetes in an urban area of Bihar. Methods: The present cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Community Medicine, Govt. Medical College & Hospital, Purnea (Bihar) for the period of 6 months among 510 respondents of 20-65 year age group in urban area of Bihar. In which 305 male and 205 females were interviewed by using pretested semi structured interview schedule. In the present study, 10 patients were excluded and total 500 patients were included in the study. Results: The result displayed that association of positive family history and risk of diabetes mellitus. Positive family history was observed more among pre-diabetics 33.34% and diabetics 25% as compared to respondents with normal blood glucose level 20%. The association was found to be statistically significant. The finding (table 3) shows the statistically significant association was observed between family history and BMI. More than 50% respondents who had positive family history of diabetes have high BMI. Conclusion: Based on our finding, it is possible that advancing age and obesity has increased in pre-diabetes. This highlights the importance of population based survey to monitor blood glucose for effective prevention and control.
