Abstract
We reviewed the records of 313 diabetic patients attending a diabetes clinic for at least two years. Despite improvements in the control rates of cardiovascular risk factors, only 8.9% of the patients reached all the metabolic target goals simultaneously at the end, indicating a gap between guidelines and clinical practice.
