Objective. To describe the prevalence, distribution and degree of control of type 2 diabetes (T2D) in Mexican population. Material and Methods. Subjects were classified as previously diagnosed T2D (PD); or as "finding of the survey" (FS) (glucose >= 126 mg/dL). Hemoglobin A1c was measured in PD-subjects Results. The prevalence for PD-T2D was 7.34% (95%CI 6.3, 8 5) and for FS 7.07% (95%CI 6.1, 8 1), summing 14.42%; (7.3 million diabetics). 5.3% of PD-T2D were in good, 38.4% in poor and 56.2% very poor control. Older age (OR=0.96,95%CI 0 94, 0.97), lower BMI (OR=0 95,95%CI 0.91, 1.0), were protective for poor control. Affiliation to private services (OR=1.77, 95%CI 098, 3.13), larger T2D duration (OR=1.05, 95%CI 1.01, 1.08), and combining oral medication and insulin (OR=16.1,95%CI 1.61, 161) were riskier. Conclusions. We found an alarming prevalence of T2D in Mexican population, the majority of PD diabetics are in poor control Research on the latter is warranted.
