Doctors' adherence to guidelines recommendations and glycaemic control in diabetic patients in Quetta, Pakistan: Findings from an observational study

Abstract

Although guidelines compliant prescriptions produced better glycemic control, but doctors' adherence to guidelines and glycemic control were poor. Polytherapy and CKD emerged as risk factors for guidelines divergent prescriptions. Dyslipidemia, CKD and reception of sulfonylureas had negative association with glycemic control.
