Abstract: Background: Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) is the most prevalent form of diabetes worldwide, with India contributing significantly to the global burden. Delayed diagnosis often results in patients presenting with established complications. Objectives: To study the clinical presentation of T2DM at diagnosis and its relationship with glycemic status(HbA1c). Methods:A cross-sectional study of 200 patients with newly diagnosed T2DM was conducted. Clinical profiles, complications, anthropometric parameters,lipid profile,and glycemic indices were analyzed. Conclusion: Many patients present late with advanced complications and poor glycemic control. Early screening and intervention are vital to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with T2DM.
