  • Patients had an average HbA1c level of 8.6%, suggesting moderate glycemic control and its link to complications.
  • This retrospective study analyzed medical records over a year in a tertiary care setting to investigate complications.
  • Significant risk factors identified include prolonged diabetes duration and the presence of comorbidities affecting outcomes.
