| Description | Background: The most important thing a person with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can do is keep their blood sugar levels under control.Objective: Researchers found that when T2DM patients do not control their blood sugar through exercise, the risk of complications is higher. This study aims to determine the relationship between exercise habits and blood glucose levels.Methods: This is a case-control study and the sampling was done using consecutive sampling. Respondents in the study were 80 samples consisting of 40 for the research group and 40 for the control group. Pearson's test and Rank-Spearman's test were used to analyze the data.Results: There is a relationship between the amount of exercise and blood sugar levels (P=0.001; r=-0.384), the type of exercise and blood sugar levels (P=0.002; r=-0.335), and the duration of exercise and blood sugar levels (P=0.015; r=-0.271; r=-0.193).Conclusion: Frequent exercise and long duration are associated with blood sugar levels in T2DM patients. People with T2DM should exercise properly so that their blood sugar levels are controlled. | |
