A survey was undertaken to estimate the prevalence of diabetes mellitus in a rural community in Iraq. Blood-sugar estimations after glucose-loading were performed on a sample of a village population 15+ years. 4.8% had diabetes and a majority of them had symptoms referable to their diabetic state. Diabetes was totally unknown among this rural population before the survey. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
