Abstract

The objective of this study was to estimate the prevalence of poor glycaemic control and cardiovascular risk factors in an Italian population-based cohort of subjects with Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM). Out of a cohort of 1967 subjects (estimated completeness of ascertainment 80%), 1574 (80%) were investigated, and adherence to targets for control of the European NIDDM Policy Group assessed. Prevalence of poor glycemic control (HbA1c > = 8) was 47.7%. Obesity was present in 23.4% of the cohort, hypertension in 83.4%, hypertriglyceridaemia (>2.26 mM) in 19.3%, hypercholesterolaemia (>6.46 mM) in 25.5%, and low HDL-cholesterol (
