Abstract

 

Non-communicable chronic diseases are the main causes of worldwide mortality, with diabetes mellitus (DM) accounting for a considerable number of these deaths. The goal of this paper was to evaluate the level of physical activity (LPA), its correlation with body mass index (BMI) and biochemical parameters in diabetics. The LPA was evaluated using the pedometer. Body mass and height were measured for BMI calculation. The biochemical parameters of fasting glycemia, glycohemoglobin, total cholesterol, high density lipoprotein (HDL-C) and triglycerides (TG) were obtained by blood analysis after 12 hours of fasting. Low-density lipoprotein (LDL-C) was obtained by the Friedwald equation. Descriptive analysis was performed to characterize the sample, Shapiro-Wilk to verify the normality of the data, Spearman correlation to verify the correlation between LPA and BMI and LPA and biochemical parameters, in addition to the t-Test for comparison between independent samples. A significance level of p <0.05 was adopted, using SPSS Statistcs20 software. All the individuals (N=12) assisted by the Hiperdia de Viçosa-MG physical activity program participated in the study. The mean daily sample steps were 9952 steps. The group classified with active (N=6) presented an average of 13450 steps/day while the group classified as non-active (N=6) 6453 steps/day. There was no correlation between the variables analyzed. With the results of this investigation it is possible to conclude that half of the individuals with DM assisted by the program are physically active, yet this LPA was not enough to impact the BMI as well as the biochemical parameters.
