impaired insulin function, marked by hyperglycemia. Chronic hyperglycemia
may decrease the nutritional status of DM patients by measuring Body Mass ndex
(BMI) and Upper Arm Circumference (UAC). This study aimed to look at the
role of glucose control in BMI and UAC in Type 2 DM patients.
Methods: This reserach was cross sectional studies. The respondents are male
and female of diabetic patients without complications over the age of 40 years.
The subjects were divided into the controlled group and uncontrolled group. Each
group performed weight measurements with weight scale, body height with
microtoise and UAC with a measuring tape. Independent T-Test was used to
analyze the data , followed by a Pearson correlation test with a significance level
of p<0.05.
Results: There was no significant difference between glucose control, BMI
(p=0.921), right UAC (p=0.611) and left UAC (p=0.406) in controlled group and
uncontrolled group. Glucose control had no correlation to BMI (r=-0.061). There
was also no correlation between glucose control, right UAC (r=0.161) and left
UAC (r=0.197).
Conclusion: Glucose control had no role in body mass index and upper arm
circumference towards patients with diabetes melitus type 2 in Malang.
