Abstract
Diabetes Mellites (DM) is a frequent chronic disease that is recognized by a triad of symptoms caused by chronic hyperglycemia (polydipsia, polyuria, polyphagia and frequently associated with weight loss) due to metabolic dysregulation and elevated blood glucose level.Worldwide, DM continues to be a significant social, economic, and health system burden.In 2045, the prevalence of prediabetes is expected to reach an epidemic level of 8.6%, of which most of those affected coming from low- or middle-income nations. In order to promote DM prevention and to encourage changes in treatment for all patients with diabetes, it is crucial to provide periodic surveillances and future predictions for diabetes.Evidence showed that many individuals in underdeveloped nations, like Egypt, are afflicted with DM but they have never been diagnosed. Aim of the work: To determine the prevalence of diagnosed and undiagnosed DM and impaired fasting glucose in a cohort of adult Egyptian population living at 3 Villages; Al-Swalem South, Al-Swalem north, and Ashlema at Al Behiera governorate over 3 months March, April, and May 2020.
