Regional differences in type 2 diabetes treatment and outcomes in Germany-An analysis of the German DPV and DIVE registries.

Aims: On the basis of the Diabetes Versorgungs-Evaluation (DIVE) and Diabetes-Patienten-Verlaufsdokumentation (DPV) datasets, we aimed to explore the impact of differences in treatment modalities on outcomes in Germany and put these into a global context.

Methods: The 2014 to 2016 DIVE and DPV databases were combined, and a total of 127 838 patients 18 years and older was analysed with respect to demographics, cardiovascular risk factors, comorbidities, treatments, and outcomes, separately for each German state. Estimates were expressed as adjusted least squares means together with 95% confidence intervals.
