Abstract
Despite the significant role of seasonal influenza vaccination in preventing and minimizing the serious complications of influenza infection in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients, unsatisfactory compliance still exists for vaccination. Study objectives were to explore the vaccination status and determinants in T2DM patients in southwestern Saudi Arabia. A cross-sectional study on a representative sample of T2DM patients in Abha city, southwestern Saudi Arabia, was conducted. Data for sociodemographic characteristics, clinical criteria, vaccination status, vaccination motivators and barriers and seasonal influenza knowledge were collected. Out of 353 T2DM patients included in the study, seasonal influenza vaccination coverage was 61% in year 2017. A significant factors associated with non-vaccination were; poor influenza and its vaccine knowledge (OR = 4.31, 95% CI: 2.73–6.80), illiteracy (OR = 1.93, 95% CI: 1.11–3.37), and more than 10 years disease duration (OR = 2.07, 95% CI: 1.11–3.87). Presence of family history of DM and ischemic heart comorbidity minimized the possibility of non-vaccination (OR = 0.54 and 0.28 respectively). Healthcare givers’ advice was the most reported vaccination motivator (84.7%) while; fear of vaccine side effects was the most stated barrier (73%). In conclusion, influenza vaccination rate among T2DM in the present study is less than the recommended level. Continuous primary health care center-based educational programs should be implemented to aware and encourage influenza vaccination among T2DM patients.

Study objectives were to explore the vaccination status and determinants in T2DM patients in southwestern Saudi Arabia. A cross-sectional study on a representative sample of T2DM patients in Abha city, southwestern Saudi Arabia, was conducted. Data for sociodemographic characteristics, clinical criteria, vaccination status, vaccination motivators and barriers and seasonal influenza knowledge were collected. Out of 353 T2DM patients included in the study, seasonal influenza vaccination coverage was 61% in year 2017. A significant factors associated with non-vaccination were; poor influenza and its vaccine knowledge (OR = 4.31, 95% CI: 2.73–6.80), illiteracy (OR = 1.93, 95% CI: 1.11–3.37), and more than 10 years disease duration (OR = 2.07, 95% CI: 1.11–3.87). Presence of family history of DM and ischemic heart comorbidity minimized the possibility of non-vaccination (OR = 0.54 and 0.28 respectively). Healthcare givers’ advice was the most reported vaccination motivator (84.7%) while; fear of vaccine side effects was the most stated barrier (73%). In conclusion, influenza vaccination rate among T2DM in the present study is less than the recommended level. Continuous primary health care center-based educational programs should be implemented to aware and encourage influenza vaccination among T2DM patients.</p></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>diabetes</kwd><kwd>seasonal influenza vaccination</kwd><kwd>motivators and barriers</kwd><kwd>knowledge</kwd><kwd>determinants</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><body><sec id="sec1-ijerph-15-01381"><title>1. Introduction</title><p>Globally, type-2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a highly significant public health problem because of its health and economic impacts and its raising prevalence [<xref rid="B1-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>]. In Saudi Arabia, it affects about 46% of men and 44% of female in the “above 50 years” age group [<xref rid="B2-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">2</xref>]. T2DM patients are at higher risk by six times to be hospitalized with influenza or pneumonia and three times more likely to die from influenza complications than others in general population [<xref rid="B3-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">3</xref>].</p><p>Seasonal Influenza vaccination is the appropriate method to minimize the risk of death and hospitalization from influenza complications in T2DM patients [<xref rid="B4-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>].Therefore, annual influenza vaccination is recommended by the main diabetes associations to all patients with T2DM [<xref rid="B5-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>]. Even with the evident worth of seasonal influenza vaccine, influenza vaccination coverage is still low [<xref rid="B6-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">6</xref>].</p><p>The motivators of influenza vaccination includes both personal and health status factors. These include; old age, good knowledge toward vaccine and presence of chronic disease. On the other hand fear from vaccine side effects and misimpression of vaccine inefficacy are the most reported barriers toward vaccination [<xref rid="B4-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>,<xref rid="B5-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">5</xref>,<xref rid="B7-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>].</p><p>Saudi Arabia is one of the most important centers for international travel in the world. It received annually, millions of pilgrims and other visitors. Saudi ministry of health has implemented many policies to prevent the possible emerging or reemerging diseases associated with traveling. This includes vaccination for citizen and pilgrims with seasonal influenza vaccine [<xref rid="B8-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>].</p><p>Data about seasonal influenza vaccination coverage, personal and clinical determinants of influenza vaccination in Saudi Arabia in general and southwestern region in particular are scarce or even lacking. Identifying the extent of vaccination coverage and its determinants among T2DM patients in the region may be beneficial in resources allocations and primary healthcare policies development that might improve care of T2DM individuals.</p><p>The present study was conducted to explore the seasonal influenza vaccination coverage and determinants in T2DMpatients in Abha City, southwestern Saudi Arabia in the vaccination season 2017. </p></sec><sec id="sec2-ijerph-15-01381"><title>2.

More than half of the study group, (216 (61.2%)) were currently vaccinated or intended to be vaccinated. Most of the vaccinated group were male (131 (63%)) and vaccinated before (190 (88%)). About one-fifth (75 (21%)) of participants were found previously vaccinated and reject vaccination this year, while 17.6% of participants had never been vaccinated before. No statistically significant difference was found in vaccination status by gender.</p><p>Motivators and barriers for seasonal influenza vaccination in the study T2DM patients by gender are presented in <xref rid="ijerph-15-01381-t002" ref-type="table">Table 2</xref>. The most frequently reported motivators of seasonal influenza vaccination among included vaccinated or willing participants were advise from healthcare givers 183 (84.7%) and subject’s perception regarding the importance of vaccination (35.6%). Response to healthcare givers’ advise was significantly higher among female participants (<italic>p</italic> = 0.02). As for barriers, fear of vaccine side effects and the misconception that vaccine is not important or the vaccine could cause influenza like illness were the most frequently reported barriers (73%, 50.4%, and 30.7% respectively). Fear of needle shot and misconception that vaccine is not important were more frequently reported barriers in females (<italic>p</italic> < 0.05).

Discussion</title><p>The results of the current study provide insight into vaccination status with seasonal influenza vaccine amongT2DM patients for the vaccination season 2017–2018. It confirms that more than half (61%) of T2DM patients are vaccinated. This figure is very close to the coverage rate of vaccination among Korean diabetic patients which amounted to 57.7% [<xref rid="B13-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">13</xref>] and higher than that in Spain (40%) [<xref rid="B14-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">14</xref>] and France (33.7%) [<xref rid="B15-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>]. The current governmental and public interest about respiratory infectious diseases and corona virus in Saudi Arabia [<xref rid="B8-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>,<xref rid="B16-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">16</xref>] besides the free and easy access to influenza vaccine are possible reasons for the increased seasonal influenza coverage compared to other world areas that reported low coverage rate for seasonal influenza vaccine.</p><p>Our results revealed that the healthcare givers’ advice is the most important motivating factor for vaccination among T2DM participants. The healthcare givers play an important role in clarifying the necessity for vaccination to the health of their patients and encouraging them for vaccination [<xref rid="B15-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>,<xref rid="B17-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">17</xref>,<xref rid="B18-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>]. On the other hand, according to our study, media advice for vaccination cams as the least motivating factor. This may be explained by either lack of interest in following media among elders or due to absence of clear educational message for influenza vaccination delivered by the media [<xref rid="B19-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">19</xref>].</p><p>In the current study, fear from side effect of vaccination was commonest barrier among participants at this year while, difficult access to vaccine was the least barrier. In Saudi Arabia, influenza vaccination is accessible and given free of charge to all T2DM patients attending the PHCCs. Therefore, our results confirmed the existence of some influenza vaccine related misconceptions as “vaccine could cause side effects”. Similarly, previous studies have confirmed that lack of correct knowledge about influenza vaccine is an important obstacle to vaccine recipients [<xref rid="B15-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>,<xref rid="B18-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">18</xref>,<xref rid="B20-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>,<xref rid="B21-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">21</xref>].</p><p>Our study suggests that the risk of seasonal influenza non-vaccination is significantly higher among illiterate T2DM patients. This result is in accordance with studies conducted in Saudi Arabia [<xref rid="B20-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">20</xref>], Spain [<xref rid="B22-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">22</xref>], and the United States [<xref rid="B23-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>]. The educational status significantly affects the health and wellbeing of the individuals. Educated participants are more able to receive, understand, and be motivated by seasonal influenza vaccination messages compared with illiterates [<xref rid="B24-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">24</xref>]. In the same context, the current study observed that T2DM patients with inadequate influenza knowledge are at higher risk of non-vaccination compared with adequately knowledgeable patients. This result is in agreement with a recent South African study that found that T2DM patients with good influenza knowledge were 3.8 times more prone to be vaccinated compared with those with poor knowledge [<xref rid="B25-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>]. Therefore, the insufficient knowledge and misconceptions result in low seasonal influenza vaccine uptake [<xref rid="B4-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>].</p><p>Among the high-risk groups that should be vaccinated against seasonal influenza is T2DM patients with real complication [<xref rid="B23-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">23</xref>].</p><p>The results of the presents study revealed that, the risk of non-vaccination was significantly higher among T2DM patients with above 10 years disease duration. This finding is in inconsistent with the studies conducted among diabetic patients in France [<xref rid="B15-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">15</xref>], Spain [<xref rid="B12-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>], and south Africa [<xref rid="B25-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">25</xref>], which reported a positive association between duration of diabetes and influenza vaccine uptake. The possible explanation of this controversy may be related to the indirect effect of inadequate influenza knowledge observed in the current study among elders and patients with a duration of diabetes of more than 10 years.</p><p>Presence of renal complication was observed as a significant factor positively associated with non-vaccination. This find is against the influenza vaccine recommendations for diabetic patients, especially those who developed renal or cardiac complications. There is no evidence that vaccination with seasonal influenza vaccine could worsen the impaired renal functions caused by diabetic nephropathy [<xref rid="B26-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">26</xref>,<xref rid="B27-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">27</xref>]. The limited vaccine uptake among those with renal complications in the current study could be attributed to the misconception of the patients or their healthcare givers about the adverse effects of the vaccine on renal functions [<xref rid="B4-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">4</xref>].</p><p>The present study found a higher influenza vaccination rate among T2DM patients with a positive family history of diabetes. This could be attributed to the higher level of influenza knowledge observed in the current study among patients with positive family history of diabetes. </p><p>The finding of the current study confirms previous studies conducted in Spain [<xref rid="B12-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>] and Canada [<xref rid="B28-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">28</xref>] which reported a positive association between having ischemic heart comorbidity and influenza vaccination among T2DM patients. A meta-analysis study has concluded that influenza vaccination reduced the probability of major cardiovascular complications in patients with coronary artery disease in comparison with no vaccination [<xref rid="B29-ijerph-15-01381" ref-type="bibr">29</xref>].</p><p>The present study gives new and important information regarding the influenza vaccine coverage and its associated determinants, motivators and barriers in T2DM patients attending PHCCs in southwestern Saudi Arabia. The experiences gained might be generalized in comparable populations to increase influenza vaccination coverage to minimize the risk of influenza among T2DM patients. Yet, the study has some limitations related to its design. These include; the study population may not be representative to all T2DM patients as we included only those who attending PHCCs. Second, the study may be liable for information recall bias. Third, the study variables not included healthcare givers’ knowledge and attitude toward influenza vaccination in T2DM patients which may affect participants’ uptake and could act as possible confounders.</p></sec><sec id="sec5-ijerph-15-01381"><title>5. Conclusions</title><p>In conclusion, influenza vaccination among T2DM patients attending PHCCs in Southwestern Saudi Arabia is suboptimal. Insufficient knowledge and misconceptions about influenza and its vaccine are the main barriers to vaccination while, healthcare givers’ advice is the main motivator. Patients with a positive family history of diabetes, education, and suffering from ischemic heart disease comorbidity are more prone to vaccine uptake.
