Abstract
Diabetes mellitus is a common disease worldwide. The prevalence and incidence of diabetes is increasing in most populations all over the world, being more prominent in developing countries. The prevalence of DM varies widely among populations, due to differences in environmental factors and genetic susceptibility.(1) It is generally accepted that urbanization adversely affects prevalence of the disease, with rates significantly higher in urban than in rural communities.(2)
Egypt occupies the 1st rank in Middle East and North Africa while the 8th in world in terms of the number of people diagnosed with diabetes mellitus (8.2 million) in 2017 for adults aged 20-99 years old, moreover it is expected to jump 2 places to rank the 6th in world (16.7 million) by 2045. Half of those (49%) have not been diagnosed and are at a higher risk of developing harmful and costly chronic complications.(3)

The aim of this study was to determine prevalence of diagnosed & undiagnosed diabetes mellitus and impaired fasting glucose in cohort of adult Egyptian individuals living at semi urban new area BachaerElkhier, West of Alexandria Governorate over three months January, February and March 2020.
