We aimed to describe the characteristics and care of participants with diabetes during Ramadan in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Methods: In this prospective, observational study, we analysed the number of fasted days, number of participants fasting, glycemic control, rate of hypoglycemic events, and lifestyle patterns for participants with T2DM during Ramadan 2016. Results: The population included 1749 participants with T2DM. The mean (SD) duration of fasting was 27.7 (5.0) days, and 57.3% of participants fasted for the full duration of Ramadan. Following Ramadan, a significant improvement in HbA1c, FPG, and PPG was observed (p < 0.0001). Confirmed hypoglycemia increased significantly from before to during Ramadan (incidence: 4.9% vs. 10.4%, p < 0.001; adverse events: 0.11 vs. 0.22 events/month/participant, p < 0.001) and was dependent on the treatment regimen. Severe hypoglycemia incidence was 0.2% before versus 0.9% during Ramadan (p = 0.031), whereas adverse events
