Implication

Retrospective cohort study reports 24.66% DKA prevalence among diabetes patients, suggesting key predictors include poor glycemic control and medication non-adherence.

Key Points

Diabetic ketoacidosis occurred in 24.66% of diabetes patients, indicating a significant concern for public health.
The incidence rate of DKA was reported as 1.1 cases per 100 person-months, highlighting the need for effective monitoring.
Medication non-adherence and poor glycemic control significantly increased the risk of DKA among patients with diabetes.
Targeted follow-up care for patients with identified predictors is crucial for reducing DKA incidence and improving diabetes management.
