<p><strong>Background</strong></p><p>Diabetes mellitus (DM) is a serious and a rapidly growing public health burden that affects millions of people. It is estimated that 27-37% of diabetes patients that are receiving care at Jinja Regional Referral Hospital (JRRH) experience diabetes complication like Neuropathy, retinopathy, diabetes foot and ulcers (ref-clinic records).....</p><p>Good background BUT the reference is unacceptable .....</p><p>This was a facility based study and could not have determined prevalence... I suggest we both title and objectives should read .... factors associated with non-adherence .......</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Methods</strong></p><p>A hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted at Jinja Regional Referral Hospital among 297 adult patients in care.&nbsp;</p><p>....................... Considering the study population, disease and setting how suitable is a cross sectional study fitted for this study and could you have employed a different study design?</p><p>These were selected by systematic, purposive and convenience sampling methods..... This is confusing, Take your time and write stepwise, what exactly you did; state study tools, variables collected, sampling process and how variables were analyzed and presented.&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Results</strong></p><p>The results is not presented systematically, Kindly provide some summary statistics about the study population; mean or median etc</p><p>Non-adherence was 0.3 times higher in male patients compared to females [APR 0.32, 95%CI (0.08–0.55), P=0.008]: The interpretation of APR of 0.3 as being higher is incorrect and runs through the results</p>
