There is a dearth of literature on the association between structured DSME and glycaemic control among PLD in LMICs. The evidence available suggests that in LMICs; particularly in sub-Saharan Africa, structured DSME is associated with reduction in glycated haemoglobin. We recommend further intervention studies on the effects of structured DSME in LMICs.
