Abstract

Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a group of metabolic diseases characterised by hyperglycaemia resulting from defects in insulin secretion, insulin action or both. Diabetes is one of the major threats to human health throughout the world. It decreases the quality of life and reduces life expectancy. The necessary long-term comprehensive healthcare provided to diabetic patients is also associated with a heavy socioeconomic burden.
