Quality of clinical practice guidelines for glycemic control in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
<h4>Background</h4>Several studies have reported that clinical practice guidelines (CPGs) in a variety of clinical areas are of modest or variable quality. The objective of this study was to evaluate the quality of an international cohort of CPGs that provide recommendations on pharmaceu...
