Abstract
INTRODUCTION
Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) constitutes 90% of global diabetes cases, determined by hereditary and environmental factors. Accelerated urbanization and socioeconomic transformations have raised its prevalence, with forecasts of over 500 million cases by 2030. In areas such as Africa and the Middle East, many cases remain undiagnosed owing to restricted healthcare access, inadequate screening, and low health awareness. Achieving effective glycemic control through diet, exercise, medication adherence, and management of comorbidities is essential for reducing complications and enhancing quality of life. Emerging evidence indicates that sleep disturbances, including insomnia and obstructive sleep apnoea (OSA), substantially affect glycemic management in people with T2DM. These disorders may impair glucose regulation by elevating insulin resistance, inflammation, and hormone imbalances. Comprehending the impact of sleep, especially insomnia, on glycemic control may reveal overlooked mechanisms and improve therapeutic approaches for diabetes management.

AIM OF THE WORK
This study aimed to identify the sleep disorders in type 2 diabetes mellitus patients and to assess the impact of insomnia in glycemic control amongst diabetes mellitus type 2 patients in Alexandria, Egypt.
