Abstract
Diabetes mellitus remains a global medical and social challenge partly because of microvascular and macrovascular complications resulting from hypo- and hyperglycemia. Medical practitioners must be aware of pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the diabetes-related adverse events in patients of various ages, as well as of the disease control options. Therefore, teaching the diabetic patients to self-monitor blood glucose is important.
