The current study aimed to examine the health-related quality of life (HRQoL) and to identify its related factors amongst adult patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This cross-sectional study recruited randomly 519 patients diagnosed with T2DM for at least 6 months in the Family medicine center (FMC) of Agricultural General Hospital in Hanoi, Vietnam. The Short Form 36 (SF-36) health survey was used to measure their HRQoL. The female patients had lower physical and mental scores than the male patients. Patients with older age, comorbidity, and insulin treatment were more likely to have lower HRQoL. Meanwhile, educational attainment and having frequent exercise were positively associated with HRQoL.

当前的研究旨在检查成年 2 型糖尿病 (T2DM) 患者的健康相关生活质量 (HRQoL) 并确定其相关因素。这项横断面研究随机招募了 519 名在越南河内农业总医院家庭医学中心 (FMC) 诊断为 T2DM 至少 6 个月的患者。使用简表 36 (SF-36) 健康调查来衡量他们的 HRQoL。女性患者的身体和心理评分均低于男性患者。年龄较大、患有合并症且接受胰岛素治疗的患者 HRQoL 更有可能较低。同时，受教育程度和经常锻炼与HRQoL呈正相关。
