Determinants of poor glycemic control among type 2 diabetes in Ethiopia: a systematic review and meta-analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

Prior primary studies have examined the prevalence and factors associated with glycaemic control among patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus, but studies with evidence-based synthesis of the primary data remained unknown. Hence, we aimed to determine the prevalence of poor glycemic control and identify determinants of poor glycemic control in patients with type 2 diabetes in Ethiopia.

Methods

We performed searches in the online databases of PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, Science Direct, and the Cochrane Library. Microsoft Excel was used to extract data, and STATA statistical software (v. 16) was used for analysis. Publication bias was explored by forest plots, Begg's rank test, and Egger's regression test. To check for heterogeneity, I² was computed
