Objective: To assess the magnitude of diabetic complication and associated factors among diabetes mellitus patients attending in Gurage zone hospitals.
Results: According to this study the magnitude of diabetic complication among diabetic patients were 61% and the marital status; divorced [AOR: 0.252 (0.11, 0.59); p = 0.002], poor glycemic control [AOR: 1.88 (1.04, 3.39); p = 0.036], body mass index > 25 [AOR: 4.42 (1.32, 14.86); p = 0.016] and duration of illness > 6 years [AOR :1.79 (1.02, 3.17); p = 0.044] and 10 years [AOR: 4.68 (2.07, 10.61); p = < 0.001] were significantly associated with diabetic complication.

Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a multisystem autoimmune rheumatic disease (ARD) that results from the dysregulation of multiple innate and adaptive immune pathways. Late-onset SLE (Lo-SLE) is the term used when the disease is first diagnosed after 50-65 years, though the standard age cut-off remains undefined. Defining "late-onset" as lupus with onset after 50 years is more biologically plausible as this roughly corresponds to the age of menopause.

Purpose: Glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists (RAs) and basal insulin are currently used in the treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) as long-acting injectables. In this study, we aimed to compare the cardiovascular (CV) and renal outcomes of GLP-1 RAs and basal insulin treatment in patients with T2DM.
Method: We conducted a propensity score-matched cohort study of patients from Chang Gung Memorial Hospital institutions between 2013 and 2021.
