Q-Score in people with diabetes treated with diet, drugs or insulin. (A) Assessment of diabetes therapy using Q-Scores as indicators of short-term glycaemic control in subjects treated with diet (
), oral hypoglycaemic agents (OHA; 
), OHA + insulin (
), and insulin alone (
). Q-Scores increased significantly with the complexity of antihyperglycaemic treatments (P <0.001). Data represent means ± SD. (B) Distribution of Q-Scores, grouped as very good + good (
), satisfactory (
), and fair + poor (
) in the different therapy groups.
