INTRODUCTION: The management of diabetics is complex due to multiple associated risk factors and complications that decrease their quality of life. OBJECTIVES: To assess whether the prevalence of physical activity levels and sitting time watching TV differ depending on glycemia status in population between 30 and 69 years old living in Tumbes. METHODS: A secondary analysis using data from a population-based study was conducted. Two were the outcomes: physical activity levels and sitting time watching TV. The exposure was glycemia status categorized into euglycemia, dysglycemia and T2DM. The T2DM group was further split into: aware and unaware of T2DM diagnosis. Prevalence ratios (PR) and 95% CI were reported using Poisson regression models. RESULTS: Data of 1607 individuals, mean age 48.2 (SD:10.6) years, 809 (50.3%) females, were analyzed. Dysglicemia and T2DM was present in 16.9% (95% CI: 15.1% 18.8%) and 11.0% (95% CI: 9.5%-12.6%) of participants, respectively. A total of 605 (37.6%; 95% CI: 35.2%-39.9%) had low levels of physical activity and 1019 (63.3%; 95% CI: 60.9%-65.7%) spent ≥2 hours per day sitting watching TV. In multivariable model, there was no significant association between glycemia status and physical activity levels (PR =1.14; 95% CI: 0.95- 1.36). Similarly between glycemia status and sitting time watching TV. However, those aware of T2DM diagnosis were more likely to have low levels of physical activity (PR=1.31; 95% CI: 1.06-1.61) compared to the euglycemics. CONCLUSIONS: We found a no relationship between glycemia status and physical activity level or sitting time watching TV, pointing out similar levels of physical activity among those with euglycemia, dysglicemia and T2DM. Individuals aware of having T2DM were 30% more likely to have low physical activity levels compared to the euglycemics. There is a need to increase physical activity levels among T2DM individuals to prevent DM2 complications.
