“…Achievement of all ABC targets (9.26%) represents suboptimal control, however the prevalence of achievement of all targets is comparable to that of the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES, 1999(NHANES, -2000 which demonstrated that 7.3% of diabetes subjects attained the ABC goals in the U.S [20], whereas a survey from the National Diabetes Health Promotion Center in Taiwan reported a 4.1% achievement of all ABC targets [21]. Another study including data from 17 countries reported that T2DM population attained all three ABC targets of 1.3%, 4.7% and 3.8% in European, Asian and Latin American Countries, respectively [9].…”

“…Although we did not obtain any relationship between poor glycemic control and type of treatment approach of diabetes, some authors showed that the subgroup of patients not treated with insulin presented relatively lower rates of poor glycemic control, while those with type 2 diabetes using insulin had a prevalence of inadequate glycemic control. One survey by Arai et al (44) in Japan and another study by Yu et al (45) in Taiwan also reported lower mean levels of HbA1c among patients not requiring insulin. These differences changed after stratifying the data by diabetes duration, but even among patients at earlier stage of diabetes (<5 years duration) insulin treatment was associated with worse control when compared to diet alone or combined with oral treatment, possibly due to more severe and more difficult to control diabetes in the former patients.…”

Background: The goal of diabetes control should be feasible in order to minimize the risk of its adverse events and to reduce its burden and cost on patients. The current study aimed to assess the status of glycemic control in male and female patients with Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) in Kerman, Iran. Methods: In the present study, 500 T2DM (300 women and 200 men) from the Kerman Coronary Artery Disease Risk Study (KERCADRS), a population-based study from 2009 to 2011, were selected. Patients were >18 years old, had Fasting Blood Sugar (FBS) higher than 126 mg/dl, and had been through treatment for their diagnosed disease. All participants underwent Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) analysis. HbA1c less than 7% was considered as good glucose control. Other metabolic indices based on American Diabetes Association (ADA) target recommendations were considered. Results: The mean level of HbA1c in total subjects was 8.56 ± 4.72% that only 31.66% of men and 26.00% of women had controlled level of HbA1c. Total cholesterol less than 200 mg/dl was reported in 64.50% of men and 44.00% of women, High Density Lipoprotein (HDL) more than 40 mg/dl was revealed in 20.50% of men and 34.67% of women, and Low Density Lipoprotein (LDL) less than 100 mg/dl was reported in 41.50% of men and 25.33% of women. In multivariate logistic regression model, longer duration of disease and higher Waist Circumference (WC) were positively associated with uncontrolled diabetes status. Conclusion:The findings of the present study revealed that diabetes control in T2DM was inadequate. Changing the policy of treatment in individual patient and establishing better diabetes clinic to decrease the frequency of uncontrolled T2DM are crucial. Paying attention to other affecting metabolic components such as WC in the process of T2DM management is important.

“…24 indicated that only 32.4% of adults with diagnosed diabetes achieved an A1C of <7%, only 30.9% had a BP <130/80 mmHg, and just 35.3% had a total cholesterol <160 mg/dL or LDL-C <100 mg/dL. Most distressing was that only 4.1% of people with diabetes achieved all the 3 treatment goals 24.…”
