Objective
The aim was to assess the influence of specific type 2 diabetes Mellitus-related features on the hand grip strength in a diabetic outpatient-based population. Material and methods A cross-sectional population-based study was conducted. Seventy-three individuals were included after excluding cases of refusal to participate or medical concerns that had potential to affect dominant hand strength. A calibrated dynamometer was used to assess dominant hand grip strength. Two multiple linear regression models were used to predict mean hand grip strength values. Spearman and Pearson correlations were calculated for all possible pairwise combinations of significant independent continuous variables and mean hand grip strength values. Results Reduced hand grip strength prevalence was 54.8%, from which 70.8% people had ≥ 65 years. Twenty four percent of individuals aged Conclusions Reduced hand grip strength prevalence was substantial in the geriatric subgroup and not negligible in younger patients with a contribution long-term Diabetes, increasing age and female gender as risk factors. This study displays a unique, practical and reliable approach to select at-risk patients who need close screening programs and clinical surveillance concerning frailty status. |
