Background: Patients with cardiac stent have been risk of restenosis. Several studies suggest that diabetes mellitus is the factor that most consistently increases the risk of restenosis. This requires further research with the literature review to analyze the continuity of the journals found.Methods: A literature review searched based on PRISMA, by the process of identification, screening, eligibility, and included. Journals are identified based on their focus and  results. Then screening by analyzing the design, samples, variables, instruments, methods and results. Then assessed for their eligibility using The Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) Critical Appraisal.Results: The total number of journals that reviewed in this study is 15 journals. Six journals stated DM as a restenosis factor, two journals stated BMI as the main factor, four journals mentioned other factors and two journals denied DM was a predictor of restenosis.Conclusion: The results of 15 journals that reviewed, diabetes mellitus was a factor that appeared consistently and had a role in the incidence of restenosis from lifestyle factors or disease history.

Background: Not smoking, performing >150 min of aerobic physical activity (PA) and muscle strengthening exercises/week, and consuming >5 portions of fruit and vegetables/day are lifestyle recommendations for both the general population and people with diabetes mellitus (DM). Methods: A total of 15,771 and 15,461 persons from the Austrian Health Interview Surveys 2014 and 2019, respectively, including 4.9% and 6.0% of people with DM, were analysed in terms of their smoking, PA, and nutritional behaviours. Logistic regression models were performed for the lifestyle factors, adjusted for socio-demographic and health-related factors. Adjusted interactions between the survey year and DM on the lifestyle factors were computed. Results: The proportions of smokers were 23.9% and 20.2%, of people complying with the PA recommendations were 24.9% and 21.4%, and with fruit and vegetables recommendations were 7.1% and 5.5%, respectively, with significantly lower proportions of smokers and persons complying with the PA recommendations among people with DM. The fully adjusted odds ratios (95% confidence interval) for people with DM were 1.09 (0.94–1.26), 1.44 (1.23–1.69), and 0.90 (0.71–1.13) for smoking, not complying with PA recommendations, and not complying with fruit and vegetables recommendations, respectively. The proportion of people complying with PA recommendations decreased to a greater extent (p < 0.001) in people with DM (16.5% to 8.3%) compared to people without DM (25.3% to 22.3%). Conclusion: Diabetogenic lifestyle behaviours increased in the general Austrian population in recent years, which was especially true for people with DM regarding PA.

<b><i>Objectives:</i></b> Lifestyle factors such as nutrition and physical activity play an important role in the management of diabetes mellitus. Unfortunately, adherence to lifestyle change remains low among patients with diabetes. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Diabetes Score questionnaire in a clinical setting. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> The Diabetes Score is a 10-item shared decision-making tool designed to empower lifestyle change in individuals with diabetes. It yields an intuitive score from 0 to 100 based on a patient’s adherence to lifestyle recommendations. An observational study was conducted at an ambulatory health care center. After obtaining written informed consent, adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus were interviewed by a trained researcher using the Diabetes Score questionnaire. Patients’ Diabetes Score values were analyzed in reference to their glycemic control and other clinical and demographic factors. <b><i>Results:</i></b> A total of 60 individuals with type 2 diabetes participated in the study. The mean age was 56 years (minimum 43 years, maximum 70 years) with 60% being males. Higher Diabetes Scores correlated with better glycemic control (hemoglobin A1C; <i>r</i> = −0.23, <i>p</i> = 0.044) indicating the effect of lifestyle factors such as healthy nutrition, smaller portion sizes, active lifestyle, and aerobic exercise. The questionnaire showed internal consistency (alpha 0.66), construct validity, and high patient satisfaction (98%). <b><i>Conclusion:</i></b> Diabetes Score, a behavioral lifestyle questionnaire, correlates with glycemic control in type 2 diabetes. Diabetes Score can be used in clinical settings for measuring, discussing, and setting targets for lifestyle change among patients with diabetes.

BackgroundMany emerging disabilities that affect today's rehabilitation consumers are linked to lifestyle factors such as diet, exercise, smoking, substance use, and obesity. Lifestyle-related disabilities have dramatically increased in incidence and prevalence over the past two decades. Rehabilitation counselors play an important role in addressing the unique challenges and opportunities that face people with emerging lifestyle-related disabilities.ObjectiveThe goals of this article are to (a) examine lifestyle factors that have changed the constellation of the American and global disability communities over the past 20–30 years; (b) examine the health, psychosocial, and vocational implications of several emerging lifestyle-related disabilities; and (c) describe the changing role of rehabilitation counselors in addressing the growing needs of consumers with these disabilities.MethodA review of the literature on lifestyle-related disabilities and rehabilitation implications indicated new service delivery considerations for working with this growing clientele.ResultsDiabetes mellitus, asthma, heart disease, human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS), emphysema, stroke, and certain types of cancer were found to be among the most significant emerging lifestyle-related disabilities. New interventions are required to meet the rehabilitation needs of this growing clientele.ConclusionsThe increased presence of lifestyle-related disabilities has numerous implications for rehabilitation practice that are discussed in this article.

The impact of gene-environment interaction on diabetes remains largely unknown. We aimed to investigate if interaction between glucose metabolizing genes and lifestyle factors is associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Interactions between genotypes of 4 glucose metabolizing genes (MTNR1B, KCNQ1, KLF14, and GCKR) and lifestyle factors were estimated in 722 T2DM patients and 759 controls, using multiple logistic regression. No significant associations with T2DM were detected for the single nucleotide polymorphisms of MTNR1B, KLF14 and GCKR. However, rs151290 (KCNQ1) polymorphisms were found to be associated with risk of T2DM. Compared with AA, the odds ratios (ORs) of AC or CC genotypes for developing T2DM were 1.545 (P = 0.0489) and 1.603 (P = 0.0383), respectively. In stratified analyses, the associations were stronger in smokers with CC than smokers with AA (OR = 3.668, P = 0.013); drinkers with AC (OR = 5.518, P = 0.036), CC (OR = 8.691, P = 0.0095), and AC+CC (OR = 6.764, P = 0.016) than drinkers with AA. Compared with nondrinkers with AA, drinkers who carry AC and CC had 12.072-fold (P = 0.0007) and 8.147-fold (P = 0.0052) higher risk of developing T2DM. In conclusions, rs151290 (KCNQ1) polymorphisms are associated with increased risk of T2DM, alone and especially in interaction with smoking and alcohol.

Although management of diabetes mellitus is improving, inadequately managed cases still exist. Prevention of diabetes mellitus requires an integrated and holistic approach based on the origin of the disease. In Europe only half of diagnosed patients with diabetes mellitus have good glycaemic control. Inadequate glycaemic control is significantly increasing the use of healthcare resources, the medical costs and mortality rates. A review was conducted in order to summarise and discuss central themes for prevention. A search of the databases PubMed, CINAHL, Cochrane and Google Scholar between January 2010–May 2019 was undertaken. The following keywords: ‘diabetes mellitus’, ‘cardiovascular diseases’, ‘empowerment’, ‘self-management education’ and ‘lifestyle factors’ were used in different combinations to identify eligible articles. Important variables for the prevention of diabetes mellitus and its complications are self-management of diabetes mellitus and the management of risk factors. Education and support for self-management are fundamental when caring for people with a chronic disease like diabetes mellitus. In order to achieve effective self-management including lifestyle modification it is also crucial to motivate people. In this review, the role of the three main pillars in diabetes care are identified and discussed; patient empowerment, self-management education and lifestyle modification in the management of people with diabetes mellitus.
