Demographic, clinical, and laboratory information were collected by interview, physical examination, and reviewing the medical records.

Out of all, 137 (33.2%) were diagnosed as diabetic including 128 (31%) as known cases and 9 (2.2%) as new cases of DM, whereas 275 (66.7%) were diagnosed as new cases of pre-diabetes. Multivariable analysis showed that low level of education (OR = 5.2, 95% CI: 1.5\u201316.6), hyperlipidemia (OR = 3.5, 95% CI: 2.1\u20135.8), liver disease (OR = 3.1, 95% CI: 1.4\u20136.9), and hypertension (HTN) (OR = 1.9, 95% CI: 1.1-3.2) were the most common predictors of DM in the elderly, respectively. Out of all diabetics, 33.6% had FBS &gt;130 mg\/dL and 25.5% had HbA1c &gt;8%, whereas these figures were \u2265100 mg\/dL and \u22655.7% in 36.7% and 21.4% of pre-diabetics, respectively.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The pre-diabetic elderly were mostly undiagnosed, while one-third to one-fourth of DMs had poor glycemic indices.

Furthermore, regular monitoring of glycemic indices in the diabetic and pre-diabetic elderly is recommended.<\/jats:p>\n
