Abstract:
Background: A growing number of evidences suggest that
inflammation might have a critical role in the pathogenesis
of T2DM.
Objectives: the objective of this study was to investigate
the effect of diet and exercise in improving inflammatory
biomarkers in patients with T2DM.
Methods and Participants: a cross sectional study included
106 patients (35 to 80 years) was conducted at the
Endocrinology Department in King Abdullah University
Hospital (KAUH). Participants were divided to 3 groups, a
group who was compliant to diet and drugs, a group who was
compliant to drugs only and a group who was compliant to
drug, diet and exercise. A questionnaire was designed, and
questions were asked face to face. A physical activity score
(International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ) was used
as well. Then, 3ml venous sample of blood was collected by a
registered nurse for further analysis.
Results: there were no significant differences in inflammatory
biomarkers between groups. However, gender, waist
circumference, fish consumption, drinking water, sweetened
beverages and HbA1c had significant impact on serum hs-
CRP levels (P≤0.05). Regarding IL-6, we found that gender,
education level, BMI, skipping meals, artificial sweeteners
and serum B12 deficiency had a significant impact on IL-6.
For TNF-α, fish, type of fat used for cooking, consumption of
sweets and sweetened beverages and B12 supplementation
have an impact on serum levels of TNF-α.
Conclusion: Many dietary habits affected the systemic
inflammation among T2DM patients.
