Abstract: Objective: To study the relationship of nutritional-status with diabetes. Design: The socioeconomics/anthropometrics, blood-glucose/systemic-hypertension are evaluated in consecutively- selected diabetic-patients. Setting: Semi-urban/rural India. Subjects: Hyperglycaemic patients (total 90/male 37). Results: Blood-glucose (PP-mean ± SE) in individuals is overweight – 38.89% (226.94 ± 9.59), normal- weight 50% (217.58 ± 1.34), underweight 11.11% (305.50 ± 21.35) indicating most hyperglycaemia in undernourished-group (F ¼ 6.357, p50.003). This group occupies higher glucose-groups in 140, 141–270, and 270 mg/dL. The blood-glucose negatively correlates with waist(r ¼ 0.282; p50.01) and hip (r ¼ 0.254; p50.05) circumference indicating the under-nutrition association with glucose-homeostasis (F ¼ 7.6–8.2, p50.001). The higher glucose is noticed in more number of individuals in lower (540 years) age-group (2¼ 12.86; p50.002/ ¼ 0.355; p50.001). The prevalence of hypertension is 28% (underweight ¼ 20%, overweight ¼ 27%, normal ¼ 30%). The group of 141–270 mg/dL glucose has 45% and rest groups together have 23% hypertensive individuals relating directly, hypertension and diabetic-onset. Conclusions: Diabetes, explored in540 years group and even more in female should be extensively studied accounting WHO categorization (1985/TRS/727) of malnutrition related diabetes (MRDM). Further, different interactive risk-factors should be properly addressed and the global-malnutrition/gender-based inequities be eradicated.
