Patients were classified as previously known diabetics, undiagnosed diabetics (glycated haemoglobin\u2009\u2265\u20096.5%) or as non-diabetics (glycated haemoglobin\u2009&lt;\u20096.5%).

The percentage of known and undiagnosed diabetes mellitus was 15.5% and 12.4%, respectively. Diabetic patients were significantly more likely to have hypertension (77.8% vs 46.0%, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), ischaemic heart disease (20.4% vs 5.0%, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), chronic kidney disease (51.3% vs 23.0%, p\u2009 &lt;\u20090.001), and stroke (20.4% vs 5.8%, p\u2009 &lt;\u20090.01).
