AB  - OBJECTIVE: Diabetes self-management education (DSME) is an essential component of 
      lifestyle management needed for diabetes care. This pilot-study tested the effect 
      of culturally-tailored education targeting diabetes selfcare on glycemia and 
      cardiovascular risk factors of Lebanese with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) 
      (n = 27; Age: 61 +/- 10 yrs, 59% males, HbA1c: 8.98 +/- 1.38%). RESULTS: Diabetes 
      self-care (Diet, Self-Monitoring Blood Glucose and foot care) improved after 
      6 months, which was reflected in a significant drop in glycemic levels 
      (HbA1c:-0.5%; FPG: - 38 mg/dl), and cholesterol/HDL ratio (4.45 +/- 1.39 vs. 
      4.06 +/- 1.29). Waist circumference decreased at 6 months compared to 3 months 
      (p < 0.05). This is the first effective culturally-tailored intervention that 
      improved self-care, glycemic control, body adiposity and lipid profile of 
      Lebanese with T2DM. Larger scale implementation with representative sample is 
      warranted.
