[Status of diabetes in Ethiopia as a contribution to tropical diabetes mellitus].
On the basis of own experiences with the care of diabetes in the northern highland of Ethiopia the particularities of the tropical diabetes mellitus are described. In the light of the control score according to Noviks and co-workers the quality of the metabolic management of 100 patients is estimated as above all unsatisfactory, from which the conclusion is to be deduced more than up to now to include the diabetes mellitus into the health care system of Ethiopia and to improve thoroughly the conditions for the diagnostics, the therapy, education and dispensary care.
