Diabetic dyslipidemia and its predictors among people with diabetes in Ethiopia: systematic review and meta-analysis.

This review revealed that the prevalence of diabetic dyslipidemia is high among people with diabetes in Ethiopia. Being female, having physical inactivity, and having uncontrolled blood glucose were found to be predictors of dyslipidemia among people with diabetes. Therefore, regular screening of lipid profiles and the provision of lipid-lowering agents should be strengthened to reduce life-threatening cardiovascular complications. Furthermore, interventions based on lifestyle modifications, such as regular physical activity and adequate blood glucose control, need to be encouraged.
