Abstract Background: Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients with hyperglycemia for a long period are significant causes of mortality and morbidity worldwide. Studying the predictors of glycemic control helps to minimize deaths and the development of acute and chronic diabetes complication. Hence, this study aims to assess predictors of glycemic control among patients with Type 2 diabetes in Ethiopia.Methods: A retrospective cohort study was conducted among type 2 Diabetes mellitus (T2DM) patients enrolled between December 2011 and December 2012 at Debre Markos and Felege Hiwot Referral Hospital. A total of 191 T2DM patients were included in the study meets the eligibility criteria. A generalized linear mixed model was employed. Results: The prevalence of good glycemic control among type 2 diabetes patients was 58.4% whereas 23.25% of the variation was explained in the fitted model due to adding the random effects. The significance predictors of glycemic control among patients with Type 2 diabetes at 95% confidence level were reside in rural(0.454, 0.614)), patients age 38-50, 51-59 and 60-66 years(1.267,1.776), (1.057,1.476) and (1.004, 1.403), respectively, Proteinuria Positive (1.211, 1.546), diastolic blood pressure ≥90 (1.101, 1.522), systolic blood pressure ≥140 (1.352, 1.895), creatinine (0.415, 0.660), duration per visit (0.913, 0.987), duration since diagnosis (0.985, 0.998), weight 78-88(0.603, 0.881).Conclusion: The level of glycemic control among type 2 diabetes patients was poor. Type 2 diabetes mellitus patients having higher age of the patient, higher weight, reside in rural, longer duration of T2DM since diagnosis, longer duration of type 2DM per visit, increase creatinine, positive protein urea, diastolic blood pressure≥90, and systolic blood pressure≥140 were significant predictors of poor glycemic control among type 2 DM patients. During diabetic patients follow up, clinicians should give appropriate attention to these significant variables for good glycemic control since it is the main goal of diabetes management.

ABSTRACT This systematic review aimed to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of probiotics for glycemic control in adults with impaired glucose control, including prediabetes and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). We searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases, and trial registries up to February 2019. We included randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of participants with prediabetes or T2DM. Eligible trials compared probiotics versus either placebo, no intervention, or comparison probiotics, or compared synbiotics versus prebiotics. Primary outcomes were mean change in fasting blood glucose (FBG) and glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) from baseline to short term (<12 wk) and long term (≥12 wk). We performed meta-analyses using the random-effects model. We included 28 RCTs (1947 participants). Overall, probiotics reduced FBG more than the placebo/no intervention group with a mean difference (MD) of –12.99 mg/dL (95% CI: –23.55, –2.42; P value: 0.016) over the short term; and –2.99 mg/dL (95% CI: –5.84, –0.13; P value: 0.040) over the long term. There was also some evidence for reduced HbA1c in the probiotics group at both short term (MD: –0.17; 95% CI: –0.37, 0.02; P value: 0.084) and long term (MD: –0.14; 95% CI: –0.34, 0.06; P value: 0.172), however, these did not reach statistical significance possibly because only a few trials reported HbA1c as an outcome. Subgroup analyses showed a greater reduction in HbA1c in participants not receiving insulin therapy than those receiving insulin therapy. Furthermore, the effect of probiotics on the reduction of FBG was more pronounced in participants with FBG >130 mg/dL and those not receiving insulin therapy than their counterparts. Probiotics were also effective in lowering serum cholesterol over the short and long term. In conclusion, we found that probiotics may have a glucose-lowering effect in T2DM participants. The effect appeared to be stronger in participants with poorly controlled diabetes and those not on insulin therapy. Systematic review registration: CRD42019121682.

A practitioner has a wide range of the hypoglycemic drugs for type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) treatment, which can be used within a normal or near-normal range for long-term glycemic control. However, the question remains whether there are ways to achieve not only satisfactory glycemic control, but also T2DM remission (or even complete cure). The review presents an update on the concept of T2DM remission and describes the ways of its possible achievement with non-drug and drug treatments and surgery. The mechanisms of T2DM remission are given.
