Abstract
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM), a non-communicable disease is on increasing trend in India as well as in West Bengal. DM develop mainly due to insulin deficiency or insulin resistance associated with deleterious effect of risk factors such as advancing age, family history of diabetes, obesity, and ethnicity.

Aims and Objectives: Humungous number of diabetic patients attending the Bankura Sammilani Medical College and Hospital inspires us to study the socio-demographic profile and anthropometric risk factors to create awareness and reduce disease burden.

Materials and Methods: This hospital based descriptive cross-sectional study was done after receiving approval from the institute ethical committee. This study enrolled 220 Type 2 diabetic patients, selected based on recent American Diabetes Association guideline. Patients with pregnancy, other endocrinal disorders, and history of drug intake influencing plasma glucose concentration are excluded from the study. The data were collected, extrapolated in Microsoft excel sheet and relevant statistical analysis was done.

Results: Among 220 participants, female dominance (62.3%) is noted. Maximum participants are from age group 45–59 years. Majority of them are from rural area (81.3%). Illiteracy is high (43.6%), sedentary physical activity is more (81.8%) among participants. History of stress (80%) is present in larger section of patients. Positive family history of diabetes is absent in (67.3%) of participants. Tobacco abuse is present in (32.7%) of diabetics, (60%) of the patients are pre-obese and obese as per Asian criteria of Body mass index and 57.7% have high waist-hip ratio (WHR).

Conclusion: DM is emerging as a major health issue in West Bengal too. The patients belong to both genders. Larger section of the participants is pre-obese and obese and have higher WHR. There is need to focus on socio-demographic and anthropometric factors to create awareness and to recommend preventive strategies to reduce the burden of the disease.

Key words: Diabetes Mellitus; Insulin; Obesity; Socio-Demographic Profile
