Changes in patient characteristics, glucose lowering treatment, glycemic control and complications in type 2 diabetes in general practices (Disease Analyzer, Germany: 2008-2016).

CONCLUSIONS: General practitioners play a key role in diabetes care, increasingly treating type 2 diabetes patients in the working population. There was no change in glycemic control over the study period (2008-2016). The use of glucose-lowering drug combinations increased and microvascular complications were more often recorded.
