Insulin is a hormone that regulates blood glucose. Factors that can affect quality of life such as lifestyle and social capital. This study aims to determine the relationship between lifestyle and social capital on the quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus at the Barombong Health Center, Makassar City. This study is an analytic observational study with a cross sectional approach. The population in this study was 578 people, the sample calculation used the WHO formula which resulted in a sample size of 385 people with predetermined exclusion and inclusion criteria. The sampling technique used was simple random sampling, with the chi square test. Bivariate analysis shows that there is a relationship between quality of life with physical activity (p=0.000), smoking (p=0.000), stress (0.000), diet (0.000), social network (0.000), social support (0.000), social norms (0.000), while variables that are not related to quality of life are obesity (0.498), and trust (0.964). Based on the results of the logistic regression test on multivariate analysis, there are several variables that are most dominantly associated with quality of life, namely physical activity p-value (0.001). Stress p-value (0.000). Social support (0.000). Social norms p-value (0.000). Physical activity, stress, social support, and social norms are the most dominant variables associated with quality of life with a probability level of 84%.
