Abstract

Introduction: Diabetes mellitus was excessive life threat to those effected which can lead to death. Due to the quickly increasing number of cases diabetes worldwide, in recent years, the association between Diabetes and tuberculosis and its consequence to public health is interesting renewed and exhaustive attention. Diabetes is estimated to tripartite the risk of active tuberculosis cases. A prospective cross sectional study was performed to prevalence of mellitus among tuberculosis patients at selected Tb centers in Mogadishu Somalia. Methods: a prospective cross sectional study design, from 1^stJuly 2021 to 30^thAugust 2021, The study site was selected TB centers including Banadir, Manhal, Sacid, and Forlilin TB centers, in Mogadishu- Somalia, a sample of 180 TB patients were selected, using systematic random sampling technique, from four main referral public TB centers in Somalia, Data Collection Procedure. The study used both primary (structured questionnaire, anthropometric measurement, and fasting blood glucose test, data statistical analyzer software called statistical package for social science (SPSS) version 24, To control possible confounders, assess factors significantly associated with diabetes and variables associated with p< 0.05 in the Bivariate analysis were entered into the logistic analysis model. Statistical associations were asserted based on 95% CI and two-sided 5% level of significance (α< 0.05). Results: a total of 24 out 180 patients were diabetes comorbidity with tuberculosis, prevalence of 13.3%, according the mean age was 44.5 years with a standard deviation (SD) of 4.7. The findings clearly show that age four (≥61 years) {OR 4.036, 95% CI (1.74, 12.7), gender {OR 6.786, 95% CI (4.4, 19.16) (P-vale < 0.05) family history of diabetes (OR 9.2, 95% CI: (2.23, 37.98) p< 0.05 were found to have a signiﬁcant association with diabetes mellitus. Conclusion: this study found that about most of the DM patients in this study were diagnosed for the ﬁrst time during this study. Therefore, the concerned body should give attention to implementing diabetes screening and comprehensive chronic care at TB clinics as it might have a beneﬁcial impact on TB control and management of diabetes mellitus.
