Abstract

Unhealthy lifestyle has been associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes. Whereas its association with vascular complications in patients with long-duration of type 2 diabetes is still uncertain. A total of 1188 patients with long-duration of type 2 diabetes from the Taiwan Diabetes Registry (TDR) data were analyzed. We stratified the severity of unhealthy lifestyle via scoring three factors (sleep duration <7 or >9 h, sit duration ≥ 8h, and meal numbers ≥ with night snack) and analyzed their associations with the development of vascular complications using logistic regression analysis. Besides, we also included 3285 patients with newly diagnosed type 2 diabetes as the comparison. Increased numbers of factors that stand for unhealthy lifestyle were significantly associated with the development of cardiovascular disease, peripheral arterial occlusion disease (PAOD) and nephropathy in patients with long-duration of type 2 diabetes. After adjusting multiple covariables, having ≥ 2 factors of unhealthy lifestyle remained significant associations with cardiovascular disease and PAOD, with an odds ratio (OR) of 2.09 (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.18-3.69) and 2.68 (95% CI 1.21-5.90), respectively. Among individual factor for unhealthy lifestyle behaviors, we revealed that eating ≥ 4 meals per day with night snack increased the risk of cardiovascular disease and nephropathy after multivariable adjustment (OR of 2.60, 95% CI 1.28-5.30; OR of 2.54, 95% CI 1.52-4.26, respectively). Whereas sit duration for ≥ 8 h per day increased the risk of PAOD (OR of 4.32, 95% CI 2.38-7.84). Unhealthy lifestyle is associated with increased prevalence of macro- and micro-vascular comorbidities in Taiwanese patients with long-duration type 2 diabetes.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 09 March 2023.
All research outputs
#15,823,206
of 23,505,669 outputs
Outputs from Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome
#393
of 706 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#181,710
of 340,480 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Diabetology & Metabolic Syndrome
#13
of 29 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,505,669 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 706 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 8.7. This one is in the 34th percentile – i.e., 34% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 340,480 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 35th percentile – i.e., 35% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 29 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
