| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We assessed the prevalence of obesity and Type 2 diabetes (DM) among adolescents aged 10 to 19 years in rural Bangladesh. A sample of 322 randomly selected participants were tested for fasting blood sugar, HbA1c, urine sugar and received anthropometric measurement. We also compared height and weight of children aged 5 years between 2001 and 2016 using the secondary data.
Sixty participants were identified to have abnormal findings of the tests and 54 received oral glucose tolerance test. We found no DM people and 1 prediabetic people. The BMI of the children in either years did not show that they were obese although the height of 2016 was significantly higher than 2001 and likewise the weight. Obesity and DM is not a serious problem in this area, although children are getting bigger. Measures against malnutrition requires actions from the preemptive point of view.
