Abstract
210 Diabetes mellitus DM is a chronic disease with an increasing incidence worldwide. A recent publication by WHO estimated that the prevalence of diabetic patients had risen from 108 to 422 million in the last 34 years, from 4.7% to 8.5%1. The prevalence of diabetic patients in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) is expected to rise to 72.1 million by 2040. There were 154,300 cases of diabetes in Bahrain in 2015 with a prevalence of 15.6%2.
