ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the relationship between BMI, physical activity, resting heart rate and diabetes mellitus. Methods A total of 423 patients with diabetes admitted to the Department of endocrinology of our hospital from August 2017 to August 2020 were investigated by questionnaire and physical signs were examined, and the correlation between BMI, physical activity, resting heart rate and diabetes was analyzed. Results FPG, 2 h PG and HbA1c were positively correlated with resting heart rate, BMI and physical activity (P < 0.05). Multiple logistic regression analysis showed that BMI (OR = 2.121), elevated resting heart rate (OR = 1.619) and less physical activity (OR = 0.711) were risk factors for diabetes. Conclusion The increase of BMI and resting heart rate and the decrease of physical activity will increase the risk of diabetes. It is particularly important to prevent the increase of BMI and resting heart rate and increase the physical labor appropriately.
