Abstract

Diabetes Mellitus (DM) is a chronic metabolic disease characterized by hyperglycemia. This study aimed to analyze the effect of physical exercise on blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 DM at the Medan Johor Public Health Center. This analytical observational study utilized a case-control design and involved 34 respondents, divided into a case group (with uncontrolled blood glucose levels) and a control group (with controlled blood glucose levels). Data on physical activity, including frequency, duration, and intensity of exercise, were obtained through interviews using the GPAQ questionnaire, while blood glucose level data were sourced from medical records. The results showed a significant relationship between physical activity (p=0.028), frequency of physical exercise (p=0.006), duration of physical exercise (p=0.015), and intensity of physical exercise (p=0.034) with blood glucose levels. Physical exercise performed at least three times a week, for a minimum duration of 30 minutes per session, and at an appropriate intensity proved effective in controlling blood glucose levels in patients with Type 2 DM. This study emphasizes the importance of incorporating physical exercise into the management plan for Type 2 DM.

Abstract

Background: Acute Respiratory Infections (ARI) remain a significant global health burden with high morbidity, particularly in developing nations. Modern lifestyle shifts—characterised by smoking habits, poor dietary patterns, physical inactivity, and compromised sleep quality—alongside environmental pollution, are hypothesised to contribute to susceptibility to these infections. Objective: This study aims to analyse the association between lifestyle factors (smoking, diet, physical activity, sleep quality) and environmental pollution exposure with the incidence of ARI among patients at the Mayen Primary Clinic in 2023–2024. Methods: This study employed an analytic observational design with a cross-sectional approach. The research was conducted at the Mayen Primary Clinic, Medan, involving 82 respondents selected via consecutive sampling. Data were collected using medical records and validated lifestyle questionnaires, followed by analysis using the Chi-Square test. Results: The findings revealed that the majority of respondents were suffering from ARI (85.4%). Bivariate analysis demonstrated significant correlations between ARI incidence and smoking habits (p<0.001), dietary patterns (p=0.001), sleep quality (p<0.001), and air pollution exposure (p<0.001). However, no significant association was observed between physical activity and ARI incidence (p=0.601). Conclusion: Unhealthy lifestyles and environmental pollution are primary determinants of ARI incidence in primary care settings, necessitating health interventions focused on behavioural modification and environmental control.
