Sex-matched controls (n = 274) comprising of patients admitted for other morbidities and sonographically negative for gallstones were simultaneously recruited from the same wards. Results: People with diabetes mellitus have 2.37 times increased chance of developing cholelithiasis. The chance of getting cholelithiasis was found to be 2.7448 times higher in age group of 50 years or more, with odds ratio of 2.7448. It was found that those with sedentary lifestyle have almost double the chance of developing cholelithiasis compared to non-sedentary, odds ratio of 1.8985. Conclusion: It has been found in this study that in Type 2 diabetes, sedentary physical activity, increasing age, over-weight and obesity were the risk factors for the development of cholelithiasis.
