Abstract
BACKGROUND Currently, most studies on the health benefits of traditional Chinese exercises on type 2 diabetes mellitus have explored the effects of a single type of traditional Chinese exercise on type 2 diabetes. Although a previous study evaluated the combined clinical effects of traditional Chinese exercises on type 2 diabetes, the studies included in that review were deficient in their study design. In addition, previous studies have not explored the ideal exercise dose that should be taken by patients with type 2 diabetes when performing traditional Chinese exercises. OBJECTIVE To understand whether the findings of previous systematic reviews and meta-analyses are still applicable and to try to address the deficiencies in the previous review, this review conducted a meta-analysis of existing randomized controlled trials to investigate the impact of traditional Chinese exercises on glycemic control with type 2 diabetes. METHODS The literature was searched in seven Chinese and English databases. Randomized controlled trials published in English and Chinese, from database inception to March 2023, were included in this review. Two reviewers independently reviewed the search results, extracted the data, and assessed the risk of bias. A meta-analysis of the included studies was conducted using Rev Man 5.4 and Stata 15.1 software. Heterogeneity was investigated using a sensitivity analysis, a subgroup analysis, and a meta-regression analysis. Pre-determined subgroups included the duration of the intervention, frequency of exercise, and duration of the single exercise session. RESULTS A total of 31 randomized controlled trials (2077 subjects) were selected in this review. The meta-analysis revealed that traditional Chinese exercises were more effective than control groups in lowering glycated hemoglobin (Z = 6.06; mean difference [MD] = - 0.64, 95% confidence interval [CI] - 0.85, - 0.44; P < 0.00001), fasting blood glucose (Z = 7.81; MD = - 0.82, 95% CI - 1.03, - 0.62; P < 0.00001), 2-h plasma glucose (Z = 5.61; MD = - 1.03, 95% CI - 1.39, - 0.67; P < 0.00001), total cholesterol (Z = 4.23; MD = - 0.37, 95% CI - 0.54, - 0.20; P < 0.0001), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Z = 5.94; MD = 0.12, 95% CI 0.08, 0.16; P < 0.00001), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (Z = 6.20; MD = - 0.34, 95% CI - 0.44, - 0.23; P < 0.00001), and triglyceride levels (Z = 3.74; MD = - 0.44, 95% CI - 0.67, - 0.21; P = 0.0002) among patients with type 2 diabetes. CONCLUSIONS Traditional Chinese exercises can significantly improve blood glucose and lipid levels in patients with type 2 diabetes. When performing traditional Chinese exercise interventions for type 2 diabetes, it is recommended that exercise programs are designed for 30-50 min/session, 4-5 sessions/week for at least 3 months.

[PMID: 36864984 PMCID: PMC9971277 DOI: 10.1016/j.eclinm.2023.101868] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/28/2022] [Revised: 01/27/2023] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/18/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Curbing or reversing high glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) and body mass index (BMI) are two essential parts in the clinical management of type 2 diabetes (T2D). We delineated the changing patterns of the baseline HbA1c and BMI in patients with T2D from placebo-controlled randomised trials to reflect the unmet clinical needs. METHODS PubMed, Medline, Embase and Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials (CENTRAL) databases were searched from inception to December 19, 2022. Placebo-controlled trials of T2D with reports of baseline HbA1c and BMI were included, of which summary data from published reports were extracted. Pooled effect sizes of baseline HbA1c and BMI of from studies published in the same year were computed in Random-effects model due to the high level of heterogeneity among studies. The main outcome was correlations between the pooled baseline HbA1c, the pooled baseline BMI, and study years. This study was registered in PROSPERO as CRD42022350482. FINDINGS We identified 6102 studies, of which 427 placebo-controlled trials with 261, 462 participants were finally included in the study. Baseline HbA1c level declined with time (Rs = -0.665, P < 0.0001, I2 = 99.4%). Baseline BMI increased over the past 35 years (R = 0.464, P = 0.0074, I2 = 99.4%), rising by around 0.70 kg/m2 per decade. Patients with BMI ≤25.0 kg/m2 dropped substantially from the half in 1996 to none in 2022. Patients with BMI ranging from 25 kg/m2 to 30 kg/m2 stabilized at 30-40% since 2000. INTERPRETATION A substantial decline in baseline HbA1c levels and a constant increase in baseline BMI levels was found in placebo-controlled trials through the past 35 years, which indicated the improvement in glycemic control and the urgency for the management of obesity in T2D.

Abstract
Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is among the most common non-communicable diseases worldwide and Malaysia. Poor glycaemic control among T2DM patients lead to serious life-long complications. Therefore, it is imperative to study the prevalence of poor glycaemic control and its risk factors to facilitate public health physicians and clinicians in developing the best strategies to optimize glycaemic control among T2DM patients.
Materials and Methods: A comparative cross-sectional study between groups of good glycaemic control and poor glycaemic control was conducted among type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients who fulfilled study criteria in Terengganu state of Malaysia. Eligible samples in the National Diabetes Registry registered from 1st January 2021 until 31st December 2021 were included into the study. Descriptive statistics, simple and multiple logistic regressions were employed for data analysis.
Result: A total of 17,165 samples were recruited in the descriptive part of the study. The prevalence of patients with poor glycaemic control in Terengganu state was 65.3% (95% CI: 0.62, 0.67). In the inferential part of the study, a total 3,700 samples were randomly selected. Multivariable analysis using multiple logistic regression revealed age, duration of diabetes, body mass index, cigarette smoking, presence of retinopathy and presence of hypertension were the significant factors associated with poor glycaemic control among T2DM patients in Terengganu state with an adjusted odds ratio (AOR) of 0.95 (95%CI:0.94, 0.96); p<0.001), AOR 1.15 (95%CI:1.13, 1.17; p<0.001), AOR 1.03 (95%CI:1.01, 1.04; p<0.001), AOR 1.45 (95%CI:1.01, 2.10; p=0.047), AOR 1.32 (95%CI:1.01, 1.73; p=0.043) and AOR 1.39 (95%CI:1.16, 1.67; p<0.001) respectively.
Conclusion: Strategies focusing on the identified risk factors may improve diabetes mellitus management and avert life-long diabetic complications.

Abstract
BACKGROUND: Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is a growing global health concern that is likely to reach a pandemic level by 2030 and is one of the leading causes of death globally. Recently, T2DM has been causing an increase in premature mortality including in developing countries.
AIM: This study aimed to determine the prevalence and the factors associated with poor glycaemic control among Type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients in Segamat, Malaysia.
METHOD: The study population was selected from the National Diabetic Registry (NDR) database between June 2019 and September 2020 which included a total of 3,100 patients. General and clinical information were retrieved from the registry. Glycaemic control was categorised as good (HbA1c ≤6.5 %) or poor (HbA1c >6.5%). Univariable and multivariable logistic regression were performed to assess the factors of poor glycaemic control
RESULTS: More than half (59.2%) of the patients had poor glycaemic control. As high as 55.1% of older patients (≥60 years old) had poorer glycaemic control. Most patients with poor glycaemic control (62.0%) were obese. Multiple logistic regression analysis revealed that age (≥60 years old), ethnicity (Malay and Indian), more than 10 years of diabetes, obesity, early diabetes onset before 40 years, and dyslipidaemia were associated with poor glycaemic control.
CONCLUSION: These findings can provide the necessary guidance for the stakeholders in identifying T2DM patients at risk of poor glycaemic control so that early preventive measures and organised care can be provided for the patients.

Abstract
Purpose The role of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) has been shown in insulin resistance and metabolic syndrome. The present study aimed to measure serum IDO activity in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) and to determine its association with glycemic control, oxidative stress, and insulin resistance. Methods Seventy-four patients with T2DM and 74 healthy subjects were selected to participate in this study. Fasting serum biochemical parameters including fasting blood sugar (FBS), HbA1c, insulin, uric acid, albumin, tryptophan, kynurenine, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) were measured. HOMA-IR, QUICKI, and HOMA-B were calculated using serum FBS and insulin values. IDO activity was estimated using kynurenine/tryptophan ratio (KTR). Data were analyzed using SPSS software (Version 15) and p < 0.05 was considered as a significant difference. Results The findings showed higher levels of FBS, HbA1c, HOMA-IR, and KTR in the patients compared to the controls. TAC and HOMA-B were significantly lowered in the T2DM patients compared to controls. KTR was significantly correlated with the level of HbA1c, and T2DM patients with poor glycemic control (HbA1c ≤ 8) had significantly higher level of KTR. HOMA-B was significantly correlated with serum tryptophan and inversely correlated with HbA1c. Conclusion Serum KTR is increased in T2DM patients with poor glycemic control. Potential clinical implications and possible pathogenic roles of IDO in T2DM development should be further elucidated.

Abstract
This study aimed to clarify of the predictors of poor glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients treated with antidiabetic medications in China.This study was a retrospective, cross-sectional study based on SuValue database. T2DM patients aged 18 years or older performing glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) examinations from January 1st, 2018 to December 31st, 2018 were included and have been treated with antidiabetic medications for at least 6 months. HbA1c < 7.0% was defined as adequate glycemic control. Multivariate analysis was performed for the factors associated with poor glycemic control.A total of 13972 T2DM patients were included in this study. The adequate glycemic control rate was 44.04% (n = 6153). In the multivariate analysis, predictors of poor glycemic control include longer T2DM duration (5-10 years vs <5 years and >10 years vs <5 years, odds ratio [OR] = 1.499 and 1.581, P < .001 and P = .008), myocardial infarction (OR = 1.141, P = .041), diabetic neuropathy (OR = 1.409, P < .001), secondary hospital (OR = 1.877, P < .001), underdeveloped regions (OR = 1.786, P < .001), insulin only (OR = 3.912, P < .001), combination of oral antidiabetic agents and/or insulin use (P < .001).In conclusion, longer T2DM duration, secondary hospital, myocardial infarction, diabetic neuropathy, undeveloped regions and use of polypharmacy and insulin were associated with poor glycemic control among T2DM patients treated with antidiabetic medications. Patient education and training of health care providers may be short-term strategy to achieve adequate glycemic control.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Poor glycemic control is the major risk factor for the development of acute and chronic diabetes complications. There are limited studies on the level of glycemic control and its associated factors among diabetic patients. So, this study aimed to assess the level of glycemic control and its associated factors among type II DM patients in Debre Tabor General Hospital. METHODS An institution based cross sectional study was conducted from November 1-30, 2017. Totally, 413 diabetic patients selected by systematic random sampling. The three months average fasting blood glucose was used to determine glycemic control. Regressions were fitted to identify associated factors. A p-value <0.05 was used to declare statistical significance. RESULT A total of 398 study participants were participated in the study with a response rate of 96.4%. Among 398 type II DM patients, 284 (71.4%) had poor glycemic control. Patient's educational status (able to read and write; AOR = 3.0, 95%CI (1.5, 5.7), (primary education; AOR = 4.5, 95%CI (1.8, 10.9), and (secondary education; AOR = 5.7, 95% CI (2.9, 11.2)))), family history of DM (AOR = 2.3, 95%CI (1.4, 3.9)), duration of DM since diagnosis (AOR = 0.3, 95% CI (0.1, 0.9)), and dietary adherence (AOR = 2.4, 95% CI (1.4, 4.1)) were associated factors to had good glycemic control. CONCLUSION Poor glycemic control was high. Educational status, family history of DM, duration of DM, and dietary adherence were the associated factors of glycemic control. Appropriate attention shall be given for glycemic control especially for patients with a longer duration. Health promotion related to medical recommendations is a cross-cutting intervention for diabetic patients and should be provided for all type II diabetic patients.

Abstract
This study examines the rate and the influencing factors of glycemic control among adult residents living with DM in Mkhondo Municipality of South Africa.In this cross-sectional study, 157 individuals attending care for DM were recruited. Glycemic control status was categorized as poor if glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) > 7% and very poor if HbA1c ≥ 9%. Multivariate regression analysis was used to identify the significant determinants of poor and very poor glycemic control.The majority of the study participants were females (84.71%) and above 45 years old (88.55%). The overall prevalence of poor glycemic control was 77.71% (n = 122), while very poor glycemic control occurred in 50.6% (n = 80) of the study cohort. In the multivariate logistic regression model analysis, African traditional [AOR = 0.15; 95% confidence interval (95% CI) 0.04-0.57], fast food consumption (AOR = 5.89; 95% CI 2.09-16.81), elevated total cholesterol (TC) [odds ratio (OR) = 2.33; 95% CI 1.50-5.17], elevated low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) (AOR = 5.28; 95% CI 1.89-14.69), and triglyceride (TG) (AOR = 4.39; 95% CI 1.48-13.00) were the independent and significant determinants of poor glycemic control. Age (AOR = 0.46; 95% CI 0.23-0.92) was the only independent and significant determinant of very poor glycemic control.We found a high rate of poor glycemic control (77.71%) possibly attributed to religious affiliation, fast food consumption, and dyslipidemia. On the contrary, about half of the study sample had very poor glycemic control (HbA1c ≥9%), which was predominant among younger cohort with diabetes mellitus. Interventions aimed at improving glycemic control in this population must also target religious practice, dietary patterns and dyslipidemia as well as tailored-approach for young people.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Diabetes mellitus is one of the most common noncommunicable diseases in Malaysia. It is associated with significant complications and a high cost of treatment, especially when glycaemic control is poor. Despite its negative impact on health, data is still lacking on the possible biopsychosocial predictors of poor glycaemic control among the diabetic population. This study is aimed at determining the prevalence of poor glycaemic control as well as its association with biopsychosocial factors such as personality traits, psychiatric factors, and quality of life (QOL) among Malaysian patients with diabetes. METHODS A cross-sectional study was conducted at the Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre (UKMMC) using outpatient population diabetic patients. Demographic data on social and clinical characteristics were collected from participants. Several questionnaires were administered, including the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) to measure depressive symptoms, the Generalized Anxiety Disorder-7 (GAD-7) to assess anxiety symptoms, the Big Five Inventory (BFI) to evaluate personality traits, and the WHO Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF) to assess QOL. Multivariate binary logistic regression was performed to determine the predictors of poor glycaemic control. RESULTS 300 patients with diabetes mellitus were recruited, with the majority (90%) having type 2 diabetes. In this population, the prevalence of poor glycaemic control (HbA1C ≥ 7.0%) was 69%, with a median HbA1C of 7.6% (IQR = 2.7). Longer duration of diabetes mellitus and a greater number of days of missed medications predicted poor glycaemic control, while older age and overall self-perception of QOL protected against poor glycaemic control. No psychological factors were associated with poor glycaemic control. CONCLUSION This study emphasizes the importance of considering the various factors that contribute to poor glycaemic control, such as duration of diabetes, medication adherence, age, and QOL. These findings should be used by clinicians, particularly when planning a multidisciplinary approach to the management of diabetes.

[PMID: 31195025 DOI: 10.1016/j.diabres.2019.06.004] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/01/2019] [Revised: 05/28/2019] [Accepted: 06/07/2019] [Indexed: 11/24/2022]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To investigate factors associated with glycaemic control of diabetes in older patients in the general practice setting in metropolitan Melbourne, Australia. METHOD This retrospective study used the data from 10,257 patients aged ≥ 65 years with Type 2 diabetes from the Melbourne East Monash General Practice Database (MAGNET), 2009-2014. Poor glycaemic control was defined as HbA1c ≥ 9.0%. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to assess the association between risk factors and glycaemic control. RESULTS Of the total 10,257 patients, 6819 (66.5%) had their HbA1c recorded within a period of 2 years prior to their last GP visit. Between 4% and 6% had HbA1c level ≥ 9.0%. Robust predictors of poor glycaemic control were found to be decreasing age group (OR = 0.77, 95% CI: 0.65-0.90) and prescribed insulin (OR = 2.83, 95% CI: 2.41-3.32). CONCLUSION One third of older patients with Type 2 diabetes did not have HbA1c recorded in the previous 2 years, despite clinical guidelines recommending at least annual testing. Many older patients had good glycaemic control, however the findings indicate that those aged 65-74 and those prescribed insulin may require special care and management to achieve this.

[PMID: 31297092 PMCID: PMC6607397 DOI: 10.3389/fendo.2019.00412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/14/2019] [Accepted: 06/07/2019] [Indexed: 01/22/2023] Open
Abstract
Purpose: To evaluate metabolic control in patients with type 2 diabetes at Dasman Diabetes Institute (DDI, Kuwait), a specialist diabetes clinic and research center, and to investigate its association with patient demographics and clinical characteristics. Methods: Data from 963 patients with type 2 diabetes were retrospectively collected from the Knowledge Based Health Records maintained at DDI for patients who attended DDI during 2011-2014. The collected data included patient demographics, clinical characteristics, and anti-diabetic medications. Student's t-test was used to evaluate the differences in mean values between poor and good glycemic control groups. Categorical variables were assessed using chi-square analysis with Fisher's exact test for small data sets. Results: The patients' mean age was 53.0 ± 9.5 years with equal number of males and females. Females (34.4 ± 7.2 kg/m2) had a higher mean body mass index than males (32.1 ± 6.4 kg/m2). The mean fasting blood glucose and HbA1c levels were 9.6 ± 3.8 mmol/L and 8.5 ± 1.8%, respectively. Dyslipidemia (46%) and hypertension (40%) were the most common comorbidities, whereas nephropathy (36%) and neuropathy (35%) were the most common diabetic complications. The most commonly used anti-diabetic medication was metformin (55%). Factors significantly associated with poor glycemic control (HbA1c level ≥ 7%) included insulin use; neuropathy or foot ulcers as diabetic complications; and elevated systolic blood pressure and total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol, triglycerides, and fasting blood glucose levels. Factors significantly associated with good glycemic control included metformin use and elevated high-density lipoprotein cholesterol level. The proportion of patients with good glycemic control (HbA1c level < 7%) was 29.5%. A large proportion of the patients with poor glycemic control were only administered monotherapy drugs, and two-thirds of the patients were obese. Further, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) recommendations for blood pressure and LDL cholesterol level were met (62 and 63%, respectively) by follow-up year 4. Conclusion: The therapeutic management of type 2 diabetes in Kuwait is suboptimal. Therapeutic strategies should ensure better adherence to ADA guidelines, evaluate the high obesity rates, and adherence to lifestyle recommendations by patients, and continually promote diabetes education and self-empowerment.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The objectives of the study were to assess glycaemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2DM) at a tertiary care diabetes centre in Ningbo, China and to determine factors that independently predict their glycaemic control. DESIGN Retrospective cross-sectional study using an existing database, the Diabetes Information Management System. SETTING Tertiary care diabetes centre in Ningbo, China. PARTICIPANTS The study included adult patients with T2DM, registered and received treatment at the diabetes centre for at least six consecutive months. The study inclusion criteria were satisfied by 1387 patients, from 1 July 2012 to 30 June 2017. PRIMARY OUTCOME MEASURE Glycaemic control (poor was defined as glycated haemoglobin (HbA1c)>=7% or fasting blood glucose (FBG)>7.0 mmol/L). RESULTS In terms of HbA1c and FBG, the 5-year period prevalence of poor glycaemic control was 50.3% and 57.3%, respectively. In terms of HbA1c and FBG, the odds of poor glycaemic control increased with the duration of T2DM (>1 to 2 years: OR 1.84, 95% CI 1.06 to 3.19; >2 to 4 years: 3.32, 1.88 to 5.85 and >4 years: 5.98, 4.09 to 8.75 and >1 to 2 years: 2.10, 1.22 to 3.62; >2 to 4 years: 2.48, 1.42 to 4.34 and >4 years: 3.34, 2.32 to 4.80) and were higher in patients residing in rural areas (1.68, 1.24 to 2.28 and 1.42, 1.06 to 1.91), with hyperlipidaemia (1.57, 1.12 to 2.19 and 1.68, 1.21 to 2.33), on diet, physical activity and oral hypoglycaemic drug (OHD) as part of their T2DM therapeutic regimen (1.80, 1.01 to 3.23 and 2.40, 1.36 to 4.26) and on diet, physical activity, OHD and insulin (2.47, 1.38 to 4.41 and 2.78, 1.58 to 4.92), respectively. CONCLUSIONS More than half of patients with T2DM at the diabetes centre in Ningbo, China have poor glycaemic control, and the predictors of glycaemic control were identified. The study findings could be taken into consideration in future interventional studies aimed at improving glycaemic control in these patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The lack of population-based evidence on the risk factors for poor glycaemic control in diabetics, particularly in resource-poor settings, is a challenge for the prevention of long-term complications. This study aimed to identify the metabolic and demographic risk factors for poor glycaemic control among diabetics in a rural community in Malaysia. METHODS A total of 1844 (780 males and 1064 females) known diabetics aged ≥ 35 years were identified from the South East Asia Community Observatory (SEACO) health and demographic surveillance site database. RESULTS 41.3% of the sample had poor glycaemic control. Poor glycaemic control was associated with age and ethnicity, with older participants (65+) better controlled than younger adults (45-54), and Malaysian Indians most poorly controlled, followed by Malay and then Chinese participants. Metabolic risk factors were also highly associated with poor glycaemic control. CONCLUSIONS There is a critical need for evidence for a better understanding of the mechanisms of the associations between risk factors and glycaemic control.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although the prevalence of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) is rising sharply in Saudi Arabia, data on glycemic control, crucial to reducing diabetes mellitus complications, remain scarce. This study therefore investigated glycemic control status and the factors influencing poor glycemic control among adult T2DM patients in Saudi Arabia. METHODS This cross-sectional study examined 423 T2DM patients at a diabetic center in Tabuk, Saudi Arabia between September 2016 and July 2017. Glycemic levels were measured via fasting blood glucose (FBG) levels, and "poor glycemic control" was defined as FBG >130 mg/dL. Poor glycemic control's risk factors were identified using a logistic regression. RESULTS In the sample, 74.9% of the patients had poor blood glycemic control. Logistic regression revealed that T2DM patients had an increased chance of poorly controlled diabetes if they had family histories of diabetes (adjusted odds ratio [AOR] =7.38, 95% CI 4.09-13.31), longer diabetic durations (AOR =2.33, 95% CI 1.14-4.78 for 5-10 years and AOR =5.19, 95% CI 2.50-10.69 for >10 years), insufficient physical exercise (AOR =19.02, 95% CI 6.23-58.06), or were overweight (AOR =3.79, 95% CI 2.00-7.18), or obese (AOR =5.35, 95% CI 2.72-12.59). CONCLUSION A high proportion of the sampled patients had poor glycemic control, therefore, health care professionals should manage the associated risk factors to limit disease complications and improve the health of patients with diabetes.

Abstract
A persistent and increasing prevalence of diagnosed and undiagnosed diabetes mellitus has recently been reported in the National Health and Morbidity Survey 2015. This commentary recapitulates the relevant and valuable lessons in the Malaysian national diabetes registries to inform the healthcare stakeholders and policy makers on potential areas of clinical practice improvement and future researches. Under performance of the process measures and sub-optimal control of HbA1c, blood pressure and lipids profile were prevalent (<40% achieved treatment targets). Although these had improved slightly from 2009 to 2012, diabetes co-morbidities (hypertension and dyslipidaemia) and complications had also increased. Prevalence of insulin use had doubled, and lipid lowering agent use had increased about 50% in 2012 compared to 2009. We identified six clinical areas for urgent attention and improvement, and three potential areas for future research.
