Core Tip Data on glycemic control (GC) in developing countries, particularly South West Region, Cameroon, are scarce. GC was assessed by measuring glycated hemoglobin and fasting plasma glucose recommended for settings limited in resources. Poor GC was recorded in more than half of the patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus. The findings from this study support clinical practice guidelines recommending the reinforcement of self-monitoring of blood glucose to avoid or lessen the complications of suboptimal GC. Future case-control and longitudinal studies are needed.
