Developing countries, due to transition of lifestyle of population amid lower socioeconomic and medical care development, are predisposed to heavy burden of Diabetes. It is the diabetic long term complications that require mechanisms for early detection and management as key to the care. The state of contemporary care of diabetes in local community may be appraised through study of clinical profiles of diabetic patients, who happen to be hospitalized on account of inadequate control/complication of the disease. These findings point to scope for improvement in current care.
