BACKGROUND: @entity1897 ( @entity1897 ) and @entity1095 ( @entity1095 ) are major causes of foot @entity1066 in @entity1 with @entity6 . The early detection of @entity1897 / @entity1095 with appropriate health counseling is the best strategy for preventing foot lesions. The objective of this study is to examine the prevalence and associated risk factors of @entity1897 / @entity1095 among rural community residents with @entity6 ( @entity6 ). METHODS: This cross-sectional descriptive study was conducted in Taiwan from February to October 2012. @entity6 and health promotion scale, @entity16 screening instrument, and ankle-brachial pressure index values were measured. RESULTS: A total of 404 (55% @entity1 ) participated in and completed the program. The overall prevalence of @entity1897 and @entity1095 was 34.5 and 17.1%, respectively. The majority of the @entity1 (90%) did not receive early @entity1897 / @entity1095 detection by health care providers. After adjustment for the potential confounding factors, multivariate analysis indicated that the factors determining @entity1897 / @entity1095 were age (P <0.001), living around sea coastal regions (P <0.001), high HbA1C level (P <0.01), and fewer regular health-promoting behaviors (P <0.01). CONCLUSION: There was a high prevalence of @entity1897 / @entity1095 among rural @entity6 residents who received insufficient early detection. The early detection of @entity1897 / @entity1095 and provision of health education with customized health-promoting behaviors of @entity1 with @entity6 in the rural community are important issues.
