Description
Wabi Temesgen Atinafu and Kefyalew Naniye Tilahun survey diet adherence among diabetic patients in Addis Ababa in this paper, published in 2024. Diet control is central to type 2 diabetes care, yet adherence in Ethiopia is poorly documented. Four hospitals joined the study in mid 2024. Systematic sampling recruited 420 patients.
Questionnaires measured how closely patients followed dietary advice. Analysis searched for traits linked with good or poor adherence. Results were summarized with standard statistical reporting and odds ratios. Income, education, and support often decide whether advice is followable. Hospital based data miss patients who never reach care, a limit to keep in mind. The findings guide counseling and food support in urban clinics.
