description | Introduction: Academicians, who frequently spend long hours in front of computer screens, may have lifestyles and sleep habits that differ from those of other professional groups and could entail a higher risk of diabetes. Aim: This study aimed to ascertain the association between insomnia severity, sleep duration among academicians, and the risk of type 2 diabetes. Method: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 125 individuals working as academicians at a state university between January and March 2020. Data collection tools included a Survey form, the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score, and the Insomnia Severity Index. Data analysis involved percentages, means, standard deviations, Pearson correlation, and regression tests. Results: Among the academicians, 23.2% were at moderate risk and 12.0% were at high risk of diabetes. Additionally, 39.2% were below the insomnia threshold. Significant positive correlations were found between the Finnish Diabetes Risk Score and variables such as Insomnia Severity Index, age, body mass index, waist circumference, and daily sleep hours; a significant negative correlation was noted with daily sleep hours (p lt; 0.05). Regression analysis revealed a significant negative relationship between daily sleep hours and type 2 diabetes Risk (β = -1.25, p lt; 0.001). Conclusion: The results demonstrated a clear and significant link between the severity of sleep deprivation, sleep duration, and diabetes risk among academicians. Therefore, adopting preventive strategies that emphasize lifestyle changes, including adequate sleep, is crucial for preventing diabetes development among academicians |
